Hi,

I recently fished a strike king bleeding hook jig with a yum crawdad trailer and am unsure if it is working on small bass. Can it work on bass in the 10 inch size range or should I be using a c-rig 6" June bug lizard? Curious...

Thanks,

LWD

Jigs can and will catch small fish, but a 6" lizard will probably catch more of em.

Hey Bass_Fanatic thank you man for your insight. I wanted to know if jig+trailers are for catching bigger bass rather than the smaller ones.

Like I said, they will catch smaller bass, but they primarily targer bigger ones. For smaller fish throw things such as worms, craws, beavers, or lizards.

Okay I got it thanks a lot Bass_Fanatic!

one of the reasons i fish jig is to try to keep the dinks off my line

cool thanks for the tip jignfule

Jigs work pretty dang good for big fish a lot of the days. I've caught quite a few in the 1-2lb range fishing a bitsy flip jig with a rage craw though.

Hey FL_Sharpshooter thanks for the advice.

Jigs for me have caught fish in all ranges from big to small. I have caught more small ones on smaller plastics such as a 4" senko. But I've also caught some lunkers on the same bait.

If your body of water has a lot of small fish, a 1/16 or 1/8 black jig w/ a wire guard and small piece of platic worm or grub as a trailer is the way to go. As long as the weed is not to dense.

X2 and never under estimate the Bitsy Jig with a Baby Rage Craw on it... Several years back when I was designing the Baby, I fished that set up on a local lake here in Tx that isn't known for large model fish. After catching several small ones on it, I jerked on a 9lber and finessed her into the boat. So a Bitsy jig is a great choice!

A shakey head with a finesse worm is hard to beat and Ive killed dinks on a finesse worm rigged weightless and twitched. They just cant stand it!

Why would u fish for dinks? Just a thought but small bass will bite big jigs as well I got a 10incher real early in the season on a AT grass jig 1 1/2oz with a whole stanley ribbit as a trailer. I wasn't expecting it usually that big gal weeds out the dinks for sure

Doesn't matter what you throw, big fish just come to you..!
