Members JDoG Posted June 5, 2017 Members Posted June 5, 2017 I'm trying to learn more about Mini-Jigging. What soft plastics do you use? What size jig head? Colors? Any other tips?
Mitch f Posted June 5, 2017 Posted June 5, 2017 When you say mini jigging, are you talking about finesse bass jigs, like 1/8th up to 5/16 oz? "Honor is a man's gift to himself" Rob Roy McGregor
Members JDoG Posted June 5, 2017 Author Members Posted June 5, 2017 No I mean MINI for trout. Ive read your supposed to use tube lures, but can they just be any old tube for slabs or do they have to be special trout tubes?
Quillback Posted June 5, 2017 Posted June 5, 2017 I've seen jigs fished a couple of ways, one way is to fish it without a float, usually 1/8th or 1/16 oz marabou jigs (no trailer). Toss it out, let it sink to the bottom, then rip it off the bottom a foot or two, let it sink again, repeat until you work it back. Zig jigs (zigjig.com) are great for this technique. I've seen very light jigs (1/32 and smaller) fished under a float. Do some searching in the Taneycomo forum and I believe you will find some posts by Phil Lilley talking about fishing them that way. White river forum has posts on fishing Zig jigs.
