First I had this 1/2oz football jig with some green pumpkin/purple skirt mixed with some brown and purple round rubber skirt. It's a bulky bait but I'm hoping it will stick a pig for me at Table Rock in May.
Next is my wife's jig. She puts up with me always at my table tying jigs and the other day while we were at the tackle store getting tying materials she wanted to know if I'd make her one. I don't know if it will catch any fish but I think her little finesse jig turned out well.
It's a little 1/8oz head so she shouldn't have any problem fishing it on her spinning rod at least.
I love to look at all the old used hardbaits that i have and still produce. I can look at different marks and imagine/remember what made it.
So lets see those well producing beat up old hard baits that never let you down.
Here's 1 of mine
Ok so today til friday is reaching highs in the mid to upper 60s and night lows in the 40s...now my question is where will the fish be this time of year with a few days of nice weather like this? im strictly jig fishing to learn it more so im trying to figure out where to start
Went out around the UCF, research parkway, and Oviedo area pond hopping on Sunday and didn't see any beds, but caught a couple of fish staging again. I'm wondering when I'll start seeing the fish finally move up, but for the most part they were only hitting hard baits just about 35 feet off the shoreline.
When they slowed down I had limited success with a wacky worm.
The reason they stepped it up is because they fired the French Guy that they brought on several years ago to revamp the store design. He's the one who got rid of so many tackle and craft/fabric departments in many stores. Well last year Wal-Mart finally realized that their bottom line had been heavily damaged by this Guy so they canned him and hired some "Good Ol Boy" from Alabama. Things should slowly start to look better at Wally World.
The Elite angler tournament committee that made that decision because it may cause injury to the bass should do some more soul searching about their fish handling practices.
Boat flipping them to the carpet, then putting on a show for the camera before putting the fish in the livewell sure doesn't represent any concern for the fish's well being.
