I was born and raised in Chicago, but after working 12 years in the financial Industry regulating the futures and options markets at the CME/CBOT I decided to pursue my passion fishing professional tournaments and left my full time corporate job. At that point, I moved to Junction City, WI with my wife Sara and two boys Hank and Duke. I've been fishing professionally since 2011 and full-time since 2015. I've qualified for seven MLF Championships and won over a half million in tournament winnings at the professional level.

Matt, such a basic lesson that we need reminders to vary our retrieves. I'm guilty of pulling it in on the bottom mindlessly. Thank you.

Short pops and popping off rocks are the best ways I’ve gotten jig bites. The poppin off rocks is what I do with a underspin too to generate a lot of bites. Always great info you provide. Thank you.

@nawinchester 2 года назад

The jig is my nemesis.... I simply can't get bite on this lure..... As much as I try, I just don't have any confidence in catching fish off this bait.. And, I fail to see how jig fisherman can say drop shotting is slow/dull.... Holy moly, I would say the exact same is true for jig fishing. Good video. I keep throwing it and keep watching videos like this to see if I can find a way to get bite on a jig.

I have my ways of fishing just about every bait but I love these videos, I mostly do the first and 2nd retrieve, I need to try stroking a jig more. Id love to see one on spinnerbaits, that is one bait I love to fish, and I do alot, but for me its the one bait I pretty much just chuck and wind, maybe a twitch or 2 through the whole retrieve. It certainly works but I would love to hear other ways. Liveing in a great lakes salmon/steelhead fishery its surprising how few people target bass here, especially largemouth, so I don't really have other people to compare notes with.

@seizedcarcass8440 5 месяцев назад

I think the jig excels with a short hop and quick hops. One other way that works is to drag it quickly on the bottom to create a muddy trail. Then just deadstick it for a few seconds and then do it again. You can throw in pops too

Fortunately, I’ll never be afraid of the jig. lol. IMHO, the most fun way to fish. Although I’ve altered size and profile over the years due to tougher bites from over fishing,but the jig is will will probably always be my go to. .The only time I shy away from a jig is in heavy weed. By me it’s milfoil, contain, pondweed, hydride,etc. Then I will use a T-Rig that closely matches a jig. Like a skirted double tail grim or a beaver or craw type bait. Just to keep from picking up the weed.

Sweet video. I've been using a football jig and casting jig to burn the flats. I have a 8:3:1 reel. I turn the handle super fast for half a rotation or a full rotation. Then I let it sit. So the jig looks like a fast tadpole or guppy. They react with a fast bite, then I pause it when I feel them bite, watch the line move, then set the hook.

I watched your other video on stroking jigs. While watching it I thought that’s exactly how I fish it. I guess I’m doing it right. I usually fish it like that in weeds, kinda like when you pop a lure out of the weeds when it gets stuck. I’ve never really been a dragger only shorter pops in rocks. I’ll have to give those a try. I really like watching your channel because your a northern guy and I’m from Connecticut. Not that bass are different but the techniques seem to be a little different. I feel northern style’s need to have a bit more finesse. When I watch and try the southern stuff I just can’t seem to get a lot of it to work.

I get many bites on a jig. But I lose so many of them when they go airborne. Just chuck the jigs out of their mouths. Tried all sorts of tricks. Mainly very slow retrieve to reduce the chance of them jumping. But this is far and away my worst bait for landing. But one of the highest for strikes.
