Thanks Buddy! We need to make some plans.I find most women skip jigs with a spinning rod....i think this thread already went out. but just trying to get a feel for what kind of combos you guys throw for jigs. size, color, pork trailer, creature bait trailer, scent, no scent. just curious. can't wait to try some of bang bang's stuff out this year and experimenting with other combos.
and.... any rod recs for jigin. looking to upgrade this season.
thanks
I use a 1/4 black jig with black #11pork in the spring and right up until spawn. Post spawn I bump up to 3/8oz. in the same color combo. Once and a while in clearer water I throw black /brown/watermelon with the same #11 black pork.
My jig rod is a Shimano Cumara 6'8" medium heavy fast and the reel is a 7:1 shimano curado. I use this combo for flipping and pitching. If I am staying back and skipping jigs, I use spinning gear, a 6'6" Falcon heavy spinning rod with a shimano symetre. My baitcaster is spooled with 50lb braid, my spinning rod 30lb braid.
I NEVER leave home without my jig rod. I throw it from March through November
