hatrix Posted August 4, 2011 Posted August 4, 2011 I am trying to find some swim jigs that are the best for coming through grass and weeds. I'm not as concerned with weeds getting caught on the hook but more so with the getting caught by the line and then bunching up on the head. I know a lot of you guys throw these so maybe you can let me know what ones come through the cleanest for you. Quote
SausageFingers Posted August 4, 2011 Posted August 4, 2011 I like the Blade Runners or NorthStar. The Blade Runner has a narrow head, while the NorthStar's have a smaller profile allowing it to slide through easier. Quote
Super User clayton86 Posted August 5, 2011 Super User Posted August 5, 2011 I throw a All Terrain Grass jig the line tie is recessed I never have a problem unless its the slimmy sticky crap that sticks to even ur line. Quote
hookset on 3 Posted August 5, 2011 Posted August 5, 2011 The All-Terrain head is shaped like the hull of a boat. It comes through cover and rights itself if it is knocked over. Quote
Super User clayton86 Posted August 5, 2011 Super User Posted August 5, 2011 Wow iv never seen that all terrain jig I buy mine at gander mountain they carry only football(favorite) grass and finnese I use the grass rig as a swimjig Quote
WanderLust Posted August 5, 2011 Posted August 5, 2011 Of course remember to keep your rod tip pointed at the jig... Quote
hatrix Posted August 5, 2011 Author Posted August 5, 2011 Thanks for the info I will have to check some of those jigs out later when I stop to get some new tackle. Quote
Super User eyedabassman Posted August 5, 2011 Super User Posted August 5, 2011 There is only one for me NorthStar jigs, hands down! Quote
Fat-G Posted August 5, 2011 Posted August 5, 2011 One thing that is very important to me at least is that you need to keep your rod at a 10 o'clock position. I use braided line and I need to drop the rod and do a snap set. If you feel stuff starting to get caught on the jig, drop your rod and snap it like your working a jerkbait. Quote
