Welcome from Jacksonville Fl.

The football jig is the king of offshore fishing thanks to its head shape, which is designed to not tip over when dragged on bottom on ledges, points and the like. It’s also a great tool to feel the bottom content. To fish it, simply pull the jig along a bit, take up the slack and repeat. Reel up slack line before setting the hook. A football jig can also be stroked up and down off the bottom. The technique: Rip it up, then let it sink back on a slack or semi-slack line. Fish usually bite on the fall. Flipping jig design. Some of that stems from the variety of cover types that anglers flip and the fact that some jigs are designed to be versatile enough for other techniques. Typically, a flipping jig is a target bait for making short flips, pitches and roll-casts to shallow wood, shoreline grass, deeper grass beds (in some situations) and docks. Once the bait reaches the target, let it fall, hop it a time or two, and then reel it back in for the next flip. Shoot for a quiet entry into the water each time. The swim jig is designed to come through grass and wood, but it’ll get bites in open water too. Just don’t drag it. Swim it. Sometimes a straight retrieve is desirable, but another common technique is to shake the rod tip while reeling. It can be fished right at the surface, scraping along the bottom or in between.

This^^^^^ Heck it was 39* that morning and warmed up too 72 by 3pm LOL

Boat owner, front seat and friend snatched this girl on a weightless trickworm in Rodman Res Fl. yesterday in the cold and wind. While I caught two squeelers all day.

No structure + no cover = No fishing. Except schoolers chasing bait I will find other spots on the lake.

Lews made the whole line of them.

Several ways to rig this bait. Texas with a wide gap hook and swim it. Belly weighted hook with a screwlock. and swim it. Use it as a trailer on buzz baits, swim jigs chatterbaits etc. https://www.bassresource.com/bass-fishing-videos/paddle-tail-swimbaits.html

Absolutely despise USPS.

I own this one, and am happy with it for $100 price point. I specifically use it for the Fluke,Rouge or chug bug.

Are you referring to something like this ?

WOW, They even give you "Free Shipping" LOL

In the club I am in ANY form of mood altering substances including prescription pain meds is automatic disqualification and possible termination from club

I have taken most suggestions. I pay for entry fee, boat pot, lunker pot. $60 I pay gas money usually around $25.00. Pick up Hardee's biscuits. Back boat in. Recover boat after TNT. Boater never waits on me to move. I keep my tackle neat not all over the boat. I stay out of his casting area. And with this being said I get to fun fish couple times a week with several differant boaters including 1 MLF retired pro. R/ Ski I'm having fun with it.

I'm having fun with it.

The club that I joined uses that format and is the oldest club in Fl. Just celebrated 52 years and several pro's actually have been in it including Peter T who still is. We have a total weight boat pot that encourages the boat owner to help the backseater. This is only my third year in it and have enjoyed the like minded people, and above all getting to "Fun fish" and "prefish"with all the different anglers, boats and trucks. The only down side I have found is, lets say I fish with Pat on Thursday then have a different partner for Sunday's Tnt. I would not tell the Tnt partner where Pat and I caught fish on Thursday. Kinda like kissing and telling.

Bullet proof and collapses for stowing when not in use.

Thanks for that insight as I have several Devils Horse. and Colts. Any location advise?

Most clubs have similar rules. Each angler competes on their own for their own weight. However our club has a total weight boat pot which encourages the boat owner to aid the backseater.

Yes sir.

THIS ^^^^^^ install vertical for swim jigs. And THIS ^^^^^

However looking forward to the Giants/Eagles game. But I have a our first club Tournament on Sunday so it will have to be a early night for me.
