rgasr63 Posted April 16, 2023 Posted April 16, 2023 I use a Denny Brauer Baby Structure Jig when I want a heavier hook. It comes in a 1/4 and a 3/8 oz sizes the bitsy bug and bitsy flip are some of my favorites also. But if I want something stout the Baby Structure Jig Is the money for me 1 Quote
Cbump Posted April 16, 2023 Author Posted April 16, 2023 I also have some x-zone craws in 3.5”. For now I’ll cut them down to fit. Quote
Pat Brown Posted April 16, 2023 Posted April 16, 2023 1/4 oz Siebert dredge brush jig in black and blue with the skirt trimmed up a lot with a Zoom super chunk jr in flippin blue or a Berkley small chigger craw in Labatt seems to work really really well for the small lighter weight presentation! Any color would work but I really like black and blue or some green/brown/orange/blue/red/purple (sunfish colors) combination 90% of the time. 2 Quote
Super User Bankbeater Posted April 16, 2023 Super User Posted April 16, 2023 I like either a Baby Boo in 5/16 or a 1/4 Bitsy Flip. I start off by just hooking the trailer over the hook, but sometimes the bass want a smaller profile so the trailer gets threaded onto the hook. When the bite gets really tough I will tie on a 1/8 Bitsy Bug. Since they are smaller they will come through vegetation easier. Quote

I picked some up with some siebert lil man jigs and that will be my finesse jig this year. The rage Ned cutr worm is also the perfect size and makes for a mini swim jig. https://siebertoutdoors.com/products/ols/products/rage-magnum-bug-rg-mgn-bug1 Quote

NittyGrittyBoy Posted April 18, 2023 Posted April 18, 2023 1/4 Nichols Saber w/ missle D chunk. Absolute killer in my local rivers 1 Quote
Fat Ika Posted April 18, 2023 Posted April 18, 2023 21 hours ago, LonnieP said: Dirty Jigs Luke Clausen compact pitching jig with Missle mini D chunk Second the Luke Clausen compact pitching. Use for sparse vegetation, hard bottom, wood. Like the Scott Canterbury Compact Flippin' Jig for moderate to heavy veggies. Xzone Adrenaline craw or mid rage bug for more action, RI smallie beaver for compact subtle action, Yamamoto flappin hog for bulkier profile. 1 Quote
river-rat Posted April 20, 2023 Posted April 20, 2023 If I'm limited to a 1/4 oz. jig it will be an Oldham's Trailer Hitch Jig. For a trailer I'll use one of the following. Gene Larew Salt Craw (I'll trim this down to about 3.5 inches) Zoom Ultra Vibe Speed Craw Uncle Josh #11 Pork Frog Quote
