Super User roadwarrior Posted August 31, 2012 Super User Posted August 31, 2012 Order direct from our sponsors, Siebert Outdoors and NothStar Custom Baits http://www.siebertoutdoors.com/ http://www.northstar...s.com/home.html For trailers, take a look at Rage Tail, too! http://www.ragetail.com/ Quote
Super User clayton86 Posted August 31, 2012 Super User Posted August 31, 2012 I'v always been a fan of the All terrain tackle jig line up and always always rage tail for a trailer. Though this year the little fishing I got to do I pretty much threw exclusively a custom jig and of coarse a rage craw for a trailer. Quote

Super User Bankbeater Posted August 31, 2012 Super User Posted August 31, 2012 I use a lot of Booyah and Strike King jigs. This time of year I will add a Zoom Super Chunk as a trailer. Quote
Vinny Chase Posted August 31, 2012 Posted August 31, 2012 NorthStar Flip & Swim is the most versitile bait on the market because he can flip it into heavy cover or swim the jig in deeper water without missing a beat. I like to pair this with a Big Hammer swimbait or Paca Craw NorthStar Black Series is another one of my favorites and I like to throw a pit chunk on them. And finally it is hard to beard a NorthStar hair jig in the colder seasons tipped with a zoom chunk Quote

Super User slonezp Posted August 31, 2012 Super User Posted August 31, 2012 IF YOU CAN FIND THEM. UNCLE JOSH MADE A TRAILER RESEMBLING A CRAWDAD ABOUT 1.5-2INCHES LONG.ITS OLD SCHOOL-BUT IT WILL CATCH FISH NOT JUST IN COLD WATER. I WISH I COULD FIND MORE COLORS; BLACK,BROWN&MOSS GREEN WILL GETEM! WHY ARE YOU YELLING? I've been using Northstar jigs for a few years and highlyrecommend them. As far as trailers, I've used Ragecraws this year as recommended by the guys here and haven't been disappointed. For swimjigs I like Poorboys Kickin' Darters, Kietech Impact, and Big Bite baits Cane Thumper. The Cane Thumper lasts longer than than Kickin' Darter. Keitech are awfully expensive but do work well Quote

Just an FYI When you type in all caps on a social forum it means you are yelling. Not to mention it's hard to read. P.S. I don't know you will enough yet to throw out some "old guy" jokes but there are a few rolling around in my head. Long Mike is on the receiving end of a lot of them. Quote

Super User deep Posted September 1, 2012 Super User Posted September 1, 2012 Casting Gear: Backwater4 custom, rage craw/ lobster Spinning Gear: Booyah Baby Boo. rage baby craw/ craw I ordered some Siebert Outdoors jig, because I never tried them before. I'll see how they are. I'm all for supporting our sponsors, provided they make a comparable product, at a competitive price. Quote
KDW96 Posted September 1, 2012 Posted September 1, 2012 Thank for the info. I will try to do better. Buy the way-i can take a joke or ribbing any time Good luck fishin................................... Quote
The Rooster Posted September 1, 2012 Posted September 1, 2012 I don't have much experience with jigs but the local tackle places here sell one that seems pretty good for about $2 each. They are sold under the name D & L Tackle. I've stocked up on those. I use Netbait Baby Paca Craws and Paca chunks for trailers. What little I've thrown a jig, I've been successful every time using this. Quote
Sun Fish Posted September 1, 2012 Posted September 1, 2012 Moaner Hooks Predator Jig + Rage Craw Quote
Jake P Posted September 1, 2012 Posted September 1, 2012 Northstar jig and rage craw or menace. I also like pit chunks for trailers when flipping. Just to name a few that is. Quote
msolorio Posted September 1, 2012 Posted September 1, 2012 Imo its very hard to beat a brown fine living rubber jig and a Yamamoto double tail. Been dynamite for me on every lake I've fished all year. Keep it simple, keep it subtle, keep it natural. Quote
NMarotta28 Posted September 1, 2012 Author Posted September 1, 2012 Thank you guys !! Any advice for colors? I fish mainly rocky resevoiurs (Unfortunately OffShore).. I need something that won't snag up to easily on rocks and that will get the fish to smash it!! I try and do the best I can because I dont have the funds to purchase a boat. What is the best weight to use? 1/4 oz? I use a SkeetReese Football Head Rod (7'2) with a Shimano Caenan reel with 20 lb braid. What is the best way to fish a jig in a rez? Hop it off the bottom ? Sorry for all the questions I am new and looking to improve!! Thanks for everything, Nick. Quote
msolorio Posted September 1, 2012 Posted September 1, 2012 You cant go wrong with a straight brown jig. Like I said I've caught fish, and good fish in every lake I've fished this year on a plain brown jig with a Yamamoto twin tail grub for a trailer. You dont have to have 10 different colors to catch fish thats unnecessary. Keep it simple, keep it subtle, keep it natural. As for jig heads themselves, if your fishing rock, your going to get hung up, there's no avoiding it. You have to slowly creep that jig over and through rocks the best you can. 99.9% of the time im throwin a 1/2 ounce jig. Perfect all around weight imo. They're not a sponsor here but check out californiareservoirlures.com the best jigs on the market hands down. I'm sure Johnny will have something you like. Quote
