MIbassin Posted May 27, 2013 Posted May 27, 2013 Caught these two nice ones this morning along with one that broke off that looked about 4...Oh well! Anyway it was my first time swimming a jig and i did pretty well! All fish were caught on a 3/8oz bluegill strike king swimjig with a berkley beat shad trailer! Quote

Bass Junkie Posted May 28, 2013 Posted May 28, 2013 Great job! Jigs are deadly all around, but one of my favorite methods is swimming them. How are you liking the Beat Shad? Very nice fish too! Quote
MIbassin Posted May 28, 2013 Author Posted May 28, 2013 I like the beat shad a lot! It's a great little paddle tail that pits out lots of action and is very durable! Quote
stkbassn Posted May 28, 2013 Posted May 28, 2013 I just ordered a jig by Molix called "the lover". It's a vibrating swim jig and looks amazing....can't wait to try it. Check it out at Tackle Warehouse....very sweet. Should be at my door tomorrow or Wed....will try to remember to post results when I get it out on the water.... Quote
Super User Tuckahoe Joe Posted May 28, 2013 Super User Posted May 28, 2013 Nice fish...congrats! Quote
rbreedi1 Posted May 28, 2013 Posted May 28, 2013 Very nice! I'm trying out swim jigs more this year. I have not been very productive with them in the past. Hopefully this will change! Quote
