Lard_Bass Posted July 13, 2009 Posted July 13, 2009 I have struggled learning jigs. The lake I fish has a bunch of milfoil on it and I am trying to learn how to fish jigs. Currently, my approach is to flip/pitch a jig into some holes close to the weedline in about 10-12 ft of water. Then I'll flip it 5-10 feet from the boat in about 15-20 ft of water right on the outside of the weedline. I pop the jig a couple of times, sometimes shake the rod tip, or sometimes drag it back. No takers yet. Any help on to improving my approach. Thanks. Quote

Shad_Master Posted July 13, 2009 Posted July 13, 2009 How heavy a jig are you using? the only suggestion I might make is to use a heavier jig and punch through the grass rather than pitching to the holes. Also, I always have a jig tied on, but don't throw it until I know that there are fish in the area - you can spend a lot of time jig fishing in a non-productive area. Quote
