What I WISH Someone Would've Told Me About JIG FISHING

Jig fishing for bass is truly one of the best ways to catch your personal best and a jig might be the most versatile lure on the planet. So lets talk about 3 jig tips you need to master!

LURES MENTIONED:

If you have been fishing for bass, you have probably heard of a jig or jig and pig. This is an old school lure that still produces big bass every single year.

Not only is it a great lure for catching big bass, but you can also catch bass on it in a number of different situations. From clear deep water to shallow dirty water.

One thing that I have noticed is that there is a lot of folks out there that struggle to gain confidence in a jig, so this video is geared to helping people understand a jig and gain confidence in fishing it.

I hope it helps you!

Three years ago I didn't even know how to fish a jig. Last week I was loading my 6 rods... 1 spinner and 5 jigs. They were all a little different type jigs, but still... needed to change it up LOL. Most of that is due to watching your channel and a couple of others. Appreciate the tips.

Yesterday I watched this video because I was not confident fishing with jigs, today I caught my first bass with a jig. Thanks for your work!

Second jig video saying if you want to learn, don’t bring other options, just bring the jig.

Funny cause I started doing that yesterday prior to hearing that tip from anyone.

Glad to know I’m on the right track because I’m not stopping until I learn that bait once and for all

Thanks for always posting such straight forward videos. I get a lot out of them for sure!

Just wanted to let you know that I couldn't My bass on that jig from watching your YouTube channel.Thank you for the tips it.Help me a lot, keep up the good work

Bro that explains me perfectly. I’ve never caught a fish on a jig. I have no idea what to do with a jig. ZERO confidence on it. Maybe cuz I fish ponds with a lot of grass and vegetation.

I have yet to catch anything on a jig, but I feel that after this video, this is my year. Thanks T!

0:50 Yep, I'm one of those. I've thrown the heck out of them over the years, followed every tips and tricks video, and still not a single bite on a jig. I have one tied on right now that I plan on throwing this weekend.

I have tons of those Bitsy Bugs! I tend to fish lighter gear, so smaller things like that are what I gravitate towards. (And they're cheap, I'm cheap, so it works out for me.)

Good Info! Going out there this weekend! Wish me luck!

[MarshallShort]

I love jigs...I usually have 2 tied on. I won a kayak tournament in November using one. Only 3 of us caught a fish that day.

Don't forget the worm it catches fish year round I never go without a worm tied on if my jig bite slows I pick up my worm rod and catch fish.

I have recently started fishing a jig regularly an have got so many tips from ur content just caught my PB here in Illinois at 5lbs on the money!! Thanks for all the tips

Great video. Quick, detailed, & couldn't agree more with the points. Also think the Itsy Bitsy or Bitsy Mini or whatever they are calling the smaller size now should probably be every anglers first jig. It's a versatile head shape, readily available in most stores, low cost, and gets bit.

I was blessed to be taught to fish a jig by some of the literal best and the first thing they taught me was give yourself no option... Go out with a rod and a pocket full of jigs and just commit & never stop making adjustments till it clicks. When it clicks... Repeat. All the time you spent making the adjustments then becomes your testing data and knowledge from which to draw the improvements and tweaks you will need to take what works for you and apply it to all the other jig shapes, formats, & situations.

Gaining confidence is kind of key I catch stuff on little lures now I'm expanding my things I'm using.

[forrhs]

WOW...amazing. I also heard, like any technique, to be a better at jig fishing, go out on the water and ONLY THROW jigs the whole time, even if fish aren't caught it helps getting more comfortable fishing them. The color and trailer advice is PERFECTY to know, thanks.

This man speak real, 100% truths, I am 100% support him. All the point he mentioned, is the key.

Great tips. Took me a while to get confidence in jigs. Just caught a 21" 5.58 pound smallie on one with a Super Chunk Jr. on it this week.

I love fishing jigs. My recommendation is a booyah finance ball head style jig. I don’t like pointy style heads or football style because I feel like they dig in grass too much. My favorite trailer is a yum Christie craw. 3 reasons: cheap, durable, and color choice. Thanks 👍

[matthewotis]

The jig is my go to but I did blister some smallies and largemouth on my blades last night. 😊
