bigbassctchr101 Posted March 10, 2011 Posted March 10, 2011 Who throws a white jig and when? How do you fish it? Quote
WanderLust Posted March 10, 2011 Posted March 10, 2011 One of my favorite colors especially with a chartreuse or chartreuse \ white trailer... Smallies seem to love white. Quote
Super User Jig Man Posted March 10, 2011 Super User Posted March 10, 2011 I swim it during the day around cover. I hop it at night in the summertime full moon. Quote
Super User Hammer 4 Posted March 10, 2011 Super User Posted March 10, 2011 White 1/2 or 3/4 oz with a brown craw type trailer, when the fish are starting, or have bedded.. Quote
Uncle Leo Posted March 10, 2011 Posted March 10, 2011 If I see small Shad I will swim a white jig. Quote
Super User Team9nine Posted March 10, 2011 Super User Posted March 10, 2011 Like most any other jig, anytime can be good, and retrieves vary. In the spring as a bedding bait because of it's visibility. Swim it shallow around cover during the shad spawn Swim it or work it through timber in the fall back in the creeks, again when bass are keying on shad Also good on bluff banks and around docks. These are just a few of my favorites. There are others. Best to toss it a little all year to see just when and where on your specific waters. -T9 Quote
Mr SwimJig Posted March 10, 2011 Posted March 10, 2011 That is the primary color I use for swimming a jig. SJ Quote
HookSetDon Posted March 10, 2011 Posted March 10, 2011 this is something i was suprised about myself. last week i was watching skeeter bass on wfn and the 2nd place angler was pitching a white jig w/ a chart trailer all day long and he was stickin em Quote
Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted March 11, 2011 Global Moderator Posted March 11, 2011 If shad are dying on the surface and fluttering down a white jig can be deadly. It's also my color for swimming a jig. Quote
Skunked in DR Posted March 11, 2011 Posted March 11, 2011 Never caught a bass on a white jig, but pike seem to love them. Quote
A-Rob Posted March 11, 2011 Posted March 11, 2011 I throw a white swim jig with a pearl/blue single tail grub as the tail. I just swim it during the retrieve, little shakes but just pretty steady. I got into that color cause a white spinnerbait is so deadly. I wanted something for when the water is to calm/clear for the spinner bait. Swim jig gets less tangled in weeds if you swim it through the thick stuff. It is great mimicking baitfish. I also have one that is green with some orange in it to mimick a perch. Quote
