    If you are new to using a jig, buy arkie style jig head first. They can be used in almost all applications. Then branch out from there with more specific types, I.e. football jigs, swim jigs, ball headed jigs. Another great video Debo!

    Another great vid Debo! I started out bass fishing like 5-6 years ago and had no freakin clue what to do with a jig. A couple of summers ago I decided to tie one on for every outing and soon realized what I was missing out on! I catch bigger and more fish on a jig than anything else now! Patience, with some trial and error helps a lot.

    I remember a few years ago being a new bass/musky angler(trolled for walleye my whole life) and I thought skirted jigs were crap, never caught shit . Then I learned to put a trailer on them. Life changing.

    I love this video. I modified every jig I use. I recently began using more finesse jigs. I also found a StrikeKing creature bait like a river beaver and I found that when fish are being finiky I can insert a 2 or 3mm glass rattle with brass beads. Talk about an attention getter!!! Shame we don't live closer to you. We'd have to go lip rippin and share some tricks. I may be doing a concert close to you and if I get a chance, it's on!!!
    Keep the videos coming!!!

    • @buzzworth2396

    Excellent video my friend! I definitely learned alot and I'm anxious to try jigs more in 2019. I use bladed jigs, spinnerbaits and started using swimjigs last year with some success. I need to build up some confidence in the actual jig. Alot of good information here to be utilized especially for a novice

  • @Eyesofthasouth
    @Eyesofthasouth 5 лет назад +3

    One thing I found with feeshin a jig in comparison to a Texas rig for instance... slowwwww. Drag, hop, double hop hop... try to feel and pay attention especially when coming in contact with lay downs and brush. Bump the head of the jig on the limbs and logs softly until you get the feel for it. Dangle it over this kind of cover, don’t try to snatch it out. Will save you money and boost confidence. 👍🏼 thanks Debo!

    • @DEBOSFishing
      @DEBOSFishing  5 лет назад +1

      Totally agree with you on that man. I tend to fish bottom jigs a bit too fast. Slow and methodical is the way to go. Thanks for watching 👊

  • @zubertish
    @zubertish 5 лет назад +4

    Another tip?
    As one threads on the plastic trailer, just before sliding it over the 'keeper', twist the trailer/plastics a quarter turn left or right (or half turn...just experiment) then while it's twisted, slide the trailer up over the keeper and once slid up all the way, twist the trailer into position.
    This helps keep your trailer on longer since there isn't a direct straight groove backwards down to the hook. One can also add a drop of gel super glue to the backside of the jig head or the bait keeper.

    • @DEBOSFishing
      @DEBOSFishing  5 лет назад +1

      I like the twist idea, going to try that. I've tried the super glue thing and it was a mess for me lol. Thanks for the comment man!

    Might be time to trim something more than the jig skirts... LOL... Look at that power beard taking off! How long are you going to grow it? :) Great video, as always. I especially like your point that flaring out the weed guard could also help to avoid hangups that come slightly from the side or when the jig turns over a bit while coming through cover. Smart!

    • @DEBOSFishing
      @DEBOSFishing  5 лет назад

      Yea, I got the beard trimmed up. I've let it go really long before. The weed guard thing really helps to not get hung up as much! Thanks for watching man!

    Awesome upload DEBO 💪 when I first started jig fishing spreading the weedgaurd to snag less was key before I learned to do that I had hell trying to gain confidence bc it seemed like I spent more time trying to unsnag or tying a new jig on than actually fishing 🤣

    • @DEBOSFishing
      @DEBOSFishing  5 лет назад +1

      Hahah I know man. I was the same way. Worrying about just fishing the jig instead of always thinking about getting snagged and it makes all the difference.

    Hey, Debo's! I have worked on my Topwater, Spinnerbait and Crankbait fishing over the last two years. My catch ratio has increased 70%. So I haven't worked on my bottom fishing in a while. When I lived in Southern Indiana. The lake I fished had Smallmouth bass in it. So I read up on how to catch Smallies. I used a Carolina rigged Pumpkin Green Salamander on a EWG 3/0 hook. This set up worked great! So now wanting to add to my fishing arsenal. I am wanting to learn how to jig fish and also add Carolina rig's this year. Believing I can improve my PB by bottom fishing. Debo's can you give me a update on jig fishing and do you have any Carolina rig knowledge to move me along. To catching my new PB. Shawn.

    One of my goals for my 2019 feeshing is to improve my jigging skills. I am looking at a TFO Professional Series 7'6" jigging rod, (as well as some other brands).

    The only thing I do additionally is Im a big fan of scent. Either JJ's or Bang. Some guys do scent some guys not much. I happen to think it helps in helping mask the "human smell" from our hands. It's a confidence thing I guess. Thanks for the vid.

    • @DEBOSFishing
      @DEBOSFishing  5 лет назад

      Ohhh. Man, I really don't ever scent besides chartreuse spike it. Scent is something I've gone back and forth on. But like you said if it gives you confidence and gets a couple more bites, do it up!

    Going to flare my weed guards. I do trim my skirts, hook my trailers similar to the way you do, and I always tie a palomar knot. I don’t trim the front of the skirt tho so I’ll knock that out tomorrow as well. I almost always take a small chunk off the trailer tho. I find it’s much easier to get the bait keeper in without destroying it.

    @GainingDespair 5 лет назад +1

    I'm not huge with jigs I will use them from time to time but I typically have a few other things I prefer more (mostly due to no bass being up here in North Dakota) most fish end up being pike/trout/northerns but yeah if I go for a jig I like the zman craws not advertising but they float and on a jig I just like to see those claws rise and I tend to fish a jig extremely slowly maybe a foot every 15 seconds.

    Do you have any videos that talk about the specific techniques? The one thing I think that I've been having problems with is how to actually start using them on the water. How do you move the rod to get certain motions, stuff like that. This, of course, is right alongside the whole "I don't know where/when to use what" problem. Hard to find tips that say "If you see [THIS], try using [THAT]." as a real jumping off point.

    I am weak on freshwater jigging, mostly a worm guy. What jig would you recommend for shallow, clear, lots of Lilly pads with open pockets water? No rocks or wood.
    Thanks

    • @PrestonOutdoors
      @PrestonOutdoors 5 лет назад +2

      Morty Ditchtroll If your going to be “swimming” the jig through the Lilly pads then using some jig with a more pointed head which will allow you to bring the jig easier through the cover. A flipping jig or brush jig are great jig for flipping the opening or edges of the pads. Hope this helps!

      check out the 6th sense hybrid jig. you can get it in a standard skirting or finess style.

    • @DEBOSFishing
      @DEBOSFishing  5 лет назад +1

      The all terrain tackle grassmaster jig has been money. But really any swim jig with a stiffer weed guard. Not like the finesse one I showed in the vid.

      Depends on what you want to do, water temp, water clarity, etc. I use the rage craws when I want a lot of action. Try different stuff out to find what you like.

    I find bulky, heavy jigs pretty difficult to fish especially on soft bottoms. Very hard to tell what's going on down there and it tends to pick up a lot more gunk than a smaller jig.

      Yeah, lighter is better in that situation especially if it's pretty shallow.
