Rod, reel and a jig. Left all my other lures at home. Fished that jig all day and caught my PB 6.3lbs bass. It was painful, but well worth. Keep throwing the jig and you will love the results.

Same here. I’m literally the only angler in my family. Working on getting my daughter more interested. She caught her first bass a week ago so she’s well in her way

@drmitofit2673 2 года назад

I always watch my line on the jig's initial fall after splash down. I am ready to set the hook at the slightest line twitch. I have caught several nice bass this way. You can miss these bites if not paying attention. When you cast to "bassy" looking areas such as structure, drop offs, holes, and ledges, this can happen fairly often.

@caseycherrington2812 2 года назад

Gene, you really do so much for the bass fishing community. No gimmicks, no selling, no click bait, just passion for fishing and teaching. You, Glenn may, and the Travian bassin guys are the only ones I can watch (very occasionally Tyler Reels). But I've learned more technique specific stuff from you. Anytime i need to know how to do something i just Google it , ie. "How to tie a fg knot flukemaster". You can tell when someone truly loves teaching, that's why I sick to my main 3 channels. You should do a video with the tactical bassin guys, i belive they do stuff for/ with tackle wharehouse.

@davidnorton2275 2 года назад

Really excellent video. Well explained with great talking points. Just bought my first equipment for this type of fishing, and you've given me some great ideas on how to get started. Thanks.

@quegen 2 года назад

Gene thanks for this video. A jig has always been my confidence lure, but lately I’ve been struggling with it. You just made me want to throw this again. Time to catch some fish!

@bkbaitsal4389 2 года назад

I fish a jig daily, football in Rocky situations and swim jig on most others. I cut the skirt at the back of the hook, the skirt at the front I pull forward and cut it 1/8" in front of line tie. I always trim my guard like Gene did, if it's too stiff I'll pull 1-2 bristles until it's to my liking. Cast out and hold on, the jig always works every time.

@brianjoe1425 2 года назад

I just cut or pull out most of my weed guards. If you’re trimming them that much, they’re pretty useless…might as well just cut them.

About three years ago I started looking for tips to help graduate from a guy that fishes, to a fisherman. I've fished my whole life, but it's dumbfounding how much I didn't know. Simple things like the difference between tips of line and when to use them and different rod actions. I upgraded my Zebco 303s and Walmart specials to Lews and Abu Garcia combos, and started trying to figure out how to use things other than crank baits. So far, this is the best video I've found on jigs. I got a few bass on his last year, but this simple shot video taught me A LOT about how I was using them wrong. Thanks!!! Now I'm just waiting for the ice to melt so I can put away my ice fishing gear and start FISHING again!!!!

Thanks for your vids. I'm fairly new to fishing. Put a jig on the line and from a low walk bridge stuck it in the water to see what it looked like and WHAM, caught a little 12" bucket mouth as soon as the lure got wet. The coolest thing ever! That was three or four months ago and, although I've lost a few lures, I never caught anything with a jig since. I'll try you technique and see what happens. Thanks pal.

One in 100 bites will be undetected when you drag a jig. If you flip a jig it's an entirely different thing.

@@Flukemaster I know but there's not alot of info on a jig bite anywhere.. it frustrated me when I first started because I was waiting for that thump of a bite. And im sure u know that for beginners they can miss alot of opportunities on good fish because they don't know that the weightless feeling or that heavy feeling or that sponge mushy feeling is actually a fish. I think that would be a great video idea for your channel. And yeah the flipping bite is completely the opposite because u know when they slam it lol. U been putting out alot of good content Gene keep it up buddy!! And my buddies son been watching your how-tos and caught his PB recently because of ur info.. keep the content coming brother

@letun3481 2 года назад

Great Video! Would you recommend using braided line? I use typically 40lb braid with 15-20 lb fluoro leader

@theduckman8814 2 года назад

To me I use jigs to pick apart an area. Football heads for rocks and hard bottoms, typically deeper. Flipping for light weed cutting. I go by weight based off of time of the year, lighter for when they're lethargic for a slower fall. Heavier for a more aggressive bite. Really nice when you know they're there but not sure where. Around logs and shadows. 2-3 flips and try a new spot. Googan trailer is less aggressive then the rage tail for less aggressive times. But the rage tail or X Zone is a good aggressive presentation.

@kylemolletfishing9123 2 года назад

When you cut the weed guard on a jig, it actually makes it harder to collapse due to less leverage than a longer one. It does help make it more weedless though.

@jholl7339 2 года назад

Yeah, but you're not really cutting a lot off, at least in this case. sometimes, if you do, you can snip away one or two guard bristles, to help it out.

@kylemolletfishing9123 2 года назад

@@jholl7339 correct. If I want my weed guard to be less stiff, I remove some of the bristles. I get clients on guide trips all the time that are cutting them because they think it makes it softer but it's the other way around.

Where I do most of my fishing a jig in peanut butter and jelly with a purple netbait paca chunk and it's very productive on bass.
