jigs in the fall

[brgbassmaster]

when you guys fish jigs in the fall do you pitch them to cover? swim them? or fish them deep? i planned on swimming jigs around shoreline cover since the bass should be coming up shallow. just wondering if swimming them is a good idea becuase i dont want to waste time on the  water doing somthing that wont work.

I've personally never really used this technique before so it could be an eye opener. I've always gone to cranks, jerkbaits and spinnerbaits for early fall. In the lake I fish most often, they move shallow to classic holding areas and I have a hard time using anything else but jerkbaits really.

If the going gets though, you're either not in the right spot or they've moved deep where I would use a soft stickbait (either t-rigged or wacky) along the break or a dropshot at the base of the structure with a longer, thicker finesse worm since they're used to bigger baitfish at this time of year.

Hope this helps!
