Ghostshad Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 Using a baitcast reel what is your favorite bait to skip,and the line you skip with ? God Bless & Thanks Quote
Matthew2000 Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 An arkey head jig 1/2 O/Z with 14-15 pound flouro or copolymer. Quote
MichiganBass80 Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 Good question. Skipping docks and other cover is something I am planning on working on this year. I have bought a few Siebert arkey head jigs. Just need to know if there is a certain line I need to use. I was looking to go to about 15lb fluoro. As soon as our pond out back thaws out, I'll be out there giving it a try. Quote
CRANKENSTIEN Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 I just searched this thread under skipping settings. There are some good post in there. Quote

You can really skip anything, but the trick is too keep it low to the water from the start of you cast. Quote
fishinphilly Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 i love skipping the davis baits bill lower swim jig 1/4oz in bream Quote
AllTerrainAngler Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 chattahoochee jigs 1/2 jig. on 20lb sunline sniper fc. I also skip buzzbaits and spinnerbaits pretty well with the right trailer Quote
Big C Posted March 15, 2015 Posted March 15, 2015 Mostly swimbaits and jigs. Hard to skip lures with trebles. The hooks just kill the momentum. (I tried it today...nasty backlashes). Quote
ABW Posted March 15, 2015 Posted March 15, 2015 I like to keep it around the 1/4 to 3/8 oz range for what I'm skipping. I use the All Terrain Skip N Jig but I will be trying Siebert's arkys here soon Quote
Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted March 15, 2015 Global Moderator Posted March 15, 2015 I mainly skip jigs with a baitcaster. I don't have a favorite rod/reel/line, just use whichever I'm using that day. Quote
