Featured Replies

Hello all. Looking to gain insight on everyone's favorite punching setups/techniques. Does anyone know where I can find good articles/video clips about punching? Thanks.

1. Dobyns G2 805FLIP

2. Abu Garcia Revo STX

3. 65# Sufix Performance Braid

4. 1 1/2 oz. Tru-Tungsten flipping weight

5. Paycheck Baits Punch Skirt

6. Paycheck Baits Punch Hook 4/0

7. Reaction Innovations Sweet Beaver

That would be the DREAM punching setup right there.

about two months ago i made a thread about this and it got some great responses. try a search.

Tim Horton has a DVD out, i think its called Stragegies for Heavy Cover.

Sam sent me a copy of this and there is some real good info about fishing mats in there.

I have 2 of these setups, to cover two different colors, or sometimes two baits I like to punch.

Dobyns 805 Punch Rod

Revo STX

80lb Daiwa Braid

1 1/2oz Tru-Tungsten flippin weight

Youvella Pro Flip hook or Paycheck baits hook

Paycheck Punch skirt

any d**n plastic you want, I like craw pattern baits with a relatively thick body so the hook stays in there real good.

Do a search, you'll see a few other threads up on here about it.

That is what we have for years called a Texas Rigged Jig; first started using them back in the mid-70s by simply inserting a bullet weight into a skirt. During the 80s a company out of Shreveport, Louisiana produced them under the name Big Red's Flying Jig. It is nothing more than a spinner bait head less the wire arm (pictured); the Junebug colored one is an original Big Red's Flying Jig.

Not only is this a deadly Punch Lure it is extremely deadly during winter when coupled with a 6 Gene Larew Hawg Craw. They are also available in lighter weights and can add rattles with the use of a rattle band as pictured to the left.

Winter in which region?  ie. Florida winter is obviously quite different than a more northern area winter.  A 6" jig trailer is awfully big for coldweather winter regions.

I think it says I'm in Texas but I could be wrong & a 6 trailer is tiny for a 6# bass :(

I use it to punch through the ice up here in Ohio winters.  :(
