Id trade 5 worm dinks,for 1 jig bite! The 1 fish will out way all them.bites together.Go Randy
I didn’t start feeling even remotely confident until I went WAY down in size with these jigs. I started with a Bitsy bug (I believe), and a really small trailer (Tiny Paca, I think it was), because initially I was so frustrated that I just wanted to see if I could catch a bass of ANY size with it. And, just committed to it, till I DID catch a fish. That made a huge difference in developing confidence with a bait. I think guys are using jig/trailers that are massive, which is fine if you’re going for quality over quantity. But, for a newbie, it can make you question if you’re using the bait right, at the right place, or have the right colors. That jig/trailer setup (that I still use to this day) was 2 1/2” at most. But, once I committed to the bait mentally, and went down to a smaller size, that’s when it all started to click.
I've caught some of my biggest bass on jigs but my confidence in them sucks. I read a trophy bass book by the late Bill Murphy and he said over all the best size is half ounce. I bought a football jig in that size and used a watermelon rage craw trailer. I used my super slow hand retrieve and whacked a 6 pounder. I also like the strike king bitsy flip in watermelon.
Ever use a rattle in dirty water?
I love old school lures like gambler strike king zoom Charlie. Which ones do you like randy .
What trailers and craws do you use what brand ?
Loving the hat!!! 🤠 This is a great insight👍 Thanks!!!
Two of my best bass last summer was caught on a jig
Fishing lily pad fields, or prespawn jig fishing… video ideas 😬
Thank you very much…Tight lines, God bless.
I've always struggled using jigs and, for that matter, any vertical presentation due to the fact that I found it a slow, tedious and boring way to fish. It's just more fun to run and gun with a spinnerbait ot crankbait. I did, however, develop an appreciation for slowing down, pitching and flipping jigs and worms as I got older and I use them a lot more than I used to. Jigs really do consistently produce quality fish.
A jig video!!! Thanks randy!!
Great video, Randy. Would be great if you could follow-up later with a video on the water to show how to work it around cover, etc. Thank you
Good stuff Randy! Always enjoy watching.
I have Never been worth a shitt @ catching anything (bsides 1 rather large ,& Ugly "grennel" aka bowfin) with a jig. 🙋🏽♂️ &…I hate that.
Good information
Been watching your old tournaments on channels that have some of that stuff. Super cool to see you hammering em old school style with lipless cranks and jigs! You got me fishing a jig with confidence and it's caught me many hogs. Great stuff as always dude! 🙏🏼
Put it in ur hand and don’t put it down , it’s the only way to get the confidence with it , like some have with a Texas rig , don’t drag it , hop it , you will hop it and then see the line coming straight to the boat
Thanks for the wisdom Randy !
