Jig fishing is simply an amazing tactic for all year fishing. For winter or summer and all between jigs will catch fish! I prefer booyah and strike king jigs personally. I always rig them with a rage craw by rage tail. The trailor produces water movement, realisticism, as well as a coffee scent that drives bass crazy. As far as ow to work i do 3 things, hops, drags, and swim and hop combos which give it a very active crawfish immatator for those excited bass as well as reaction stikes. Hope i could help. now get out there and catch a lunker on a summer jig !
