Trailer Posted May 16, 2013 Posted May 16, 2013 Give me your opinions and input on your favorite jigs, colors, types and brands that you like. I'm going to order a few and am curious as to what you guys like. Thanks Quote
Super User 00 mod Posted May 16, 2013 Super User Posted May 16, 2013 I strongly suggest you check out our 3 sponsors. Siebert Outdoors, Northstar Custom Baits and MegaStrike. They are great companies that produce excellent jigs! Jeff Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted May 16, 2013 Super User Posted May 16, 2013 Siebert Outdoors Big O in Falcon 1/2 oz NorthStar Original Swim Jig in Bluegill 3/8 oz MegaStrike Evolution e2 in Midnight 5/16 oz Quote
Super User J Francho Posted May 16, 2013 Super User Posted May 16, 2013 For colors, black, black and blue, brown, and something with some green and orange or rusty highlights will cover your bases. Quote
Bama55 Posted May 16, 2013 Posted May 16, 2013 I got on here to ask the same question. Trailer, if you haven't seen it already, read through Jig Fishing Questions when you get time. There's a lot of great info there! Quote
SwampLife Posted May 16, 2013 Posted May 16, 2013 I have been using dirty jigs for awhile now and I reallylike them but my next order i will try the siebert outdoors .. They look Awesome and have awesome reviews Quote
Super User rockchalk06 Posted May 16, 2013 Super User Posted May 16, 2013 I only use North Star jigs now. Black blue and Mistake color for dirty waters and lots of greens and browns for clear. Quote
Super User *Hootie Posted May 16, 2013 Super User Posted May 16, 2013 Siebert, Siebert, and, Oh, did I mention Siebert? Hootie 2 Quote
Trailer Posted May 16, 2013 Author Posted May 16, 2013 Siebert Outdoors Big O in Falcon 1/2 oz NorthStar Original Swim Jig in Bluegill 3/8 oz MegaStrike Evolution e2 in Midnight 5/16 oz I have checked out that Northstar Bluegill and it looks awesome. And there is a "new gill" color I think. Quote
MyKeyBe Posted May 16, 2013 Posted May 16, 2013 If you have open water get some ballhead jigs. Pretty sure none of the sponsors offer any. Get whatever in whatever color. Use a grub for a trailer. Chartruese and dark grubs work for me. It'll get ya bit. Quote
Super User iabass8 Posted May 16, 2013 Super User Posted May 16, 2013 If you have open water get some ballhead jigs. Pretty sure none of the sponsors offer any. Get whatever in whatever color. Use a grub for a trailer. Chartruese and dark grubs work for me. It'll get ya bit. Both Northstar and Siebert's offer the roundhead jig style with and without a skirt. I don't believe the OP is referring to the popular lead head jig/grub trailer. I've as of recent become a fan of Siebert's Jig's. He makes a very quality product at a great price. Quote
Super User eyedabassman Posted May 16, 2013 Super User Posted May 16, 2013 I like the NorthStar jigs alot.And I am sure the other two that have been posted are good also.The NorthStar jigs is all that I fish. Love his Black jigs,and the football jig's in molting craw,PB&J,Insanity,Chaos,Wrotten Banna, and in the football heads I fish 3/4 or 1 oz.! And his swim jigs and Flip & Swim are the best I have ever seen or fished,the bluegill & New Gill are KILLER all year!!!!!! 1 Quote

mtaag3 Posted May 17, 2013 Posted May 17, 2013 I placed and order with Siebert and was extremely happy Quote
Super User J Francho Posted May 17, 2013 Super User Posted May 17, 2013 Siebert and Northstar are two VERY good options, and it doesn't hurt that they are both sponsors, and all around good guys that use and support their product. Skinny Bear, Buckeye, and Don Iovino also make good "customish" or better than national brand jigs. Quote
Vinny Chase Posted May 17, 2013 Posted May 17, 2013 NorthStar Original Swim Jig & Flip & Swim in "new gill" - This is what catches most of my fish throughout the year. Nothing swim straighter and lasts longer. Also, the Black Series jig provides a very unqiue look that the fish can't resist. If you're into smallie fishing, or just want to show the largies something different, the hair jig is also a great option. Quote
rmcguirk Posted May 17, 2013 Posted May 17, 2013 Another vote for both Siebert and North Star. Both offer quality products and great service. Personally, I just put in another order to North Star for some of their Black series jigs and some of their original swim jigs. Just as an FYI, the site says that they're running pretty far behind due to order volume (which sounds like a high-class problem, for them). Quote
mtaag3 Posted May 17, 2013 Posted May 17, 2013 I would like to try Northstar too. They seem like very nice baits as well Quote
Bama55 Posted May 17, 2013 Posted May 17, 2013 After reading a couple different threads here yesterday I went to the local tackle shop to pick up a couple jigs so I can start learning. The owner of the shop suggested V&M jigs. I'd never heard of V&M. Do any of you have any experience with them? Either way, I picked up a couple. I'll let you all know how they do once I learn to catch some fish with them Quote

If you're into smallie fishing, or just want to show the largies something different, the hair jig is also a great option. The Copper Craw hairs I have drive them crazy in the winter time here. Weird thing is, I could never get a bite flipping it or dead sticking it. I had to swim it, almost burn it then let it drop. Every drop they killed it as it glided down! But the Black series jig are killer year round in any water. Brandon Shultz's video on them rocks. Shows the crazy action on them. Quote
Super User MarkH024 Posted May 17, 2013 Super User Posted May 17, 2013 Awaiting on my first Northstar order still. Eager to try them out but been quite a wait for them. I haven't tried the Siebert jigs yet either so I can't comment there. I also like the SK Swimg jigs in Bluegill color. Quote
HeavyDluxe Posted May 17, 2013 Posted May 17, 2013 I placed an order for jigs over a month ago from Seibert Outdoors. I just placed my second order with him. Great product, top-notch service, and quick delivery. I started with a handful of colors, but am down to mainly stocking 4: Brown/Orange, Black/Blue, Bluegill, and "Clear Water" (a lighter brown/orange mix). Can't say enough good things here. 1 Quote
The Young Gun Posted May 17, 2013 Posted May 17, 2013 I'm new to jig fishing as well, I've only fished them twice and I an already in love. For flipping docks and brush the "Big O" series jig from siebert outdoors is incredible. I fish the okechobee craw skirt and in 1/2oz. Here's my second bass ever on a jig, it was that exact jig..

Trailer Posted May 18, 2013 Author Posted May 18, 2013 Both Northstar and Siebert's offer the roundhead jig style with and without a skirt. I don't believe the OP is referring to the popular lead head jig/grub trailer. I've as of recent become a fan of Siebert's Jig's. He makes a very quality product at a great price. This is true. Not discounting the grub and jig head combo at all, but I'm referring to the female persuasion of these type baits (skirts). Quote
Trailer Posted May 18, 2013 Author Posted May 18, 2013 Thanks for all of your input guys. Are you guys ordering these jigs directly from the manufacturer or through someone like TWarehouse? Quote
