Thanks Bo

Jig fishing is definitely a learned skill I think.  Thanks for the tips and help.

there is nothing easy about any fishing lure.  you have to learn how to use any fishing tool to make the fish strike it.  there is nothing magic with any fishing tool.  the jig just happens to be the most versatile tool we can have in the boat.

Bo, I agree about the versatility of a jig. But have not caught a jig fish yet this spring. I know it will happen and I keep experimenting with different sizes and colors.

have you fished any plastics on a jig??  such as shakey head or a swimmer on a jig, or crawdad on a jig?  and, actually a spinner bait is just a jig with a spinner attached.

bo, yes but it was during the slime period in the dam area so not much luck. Now that we’ve got a summer pattern here I will be bottom bumping waiting for that thump-thump.
