Master Class!! One of the best teaching fishermen in the game! Great stuff T!! One of the things I love about fishing is I’m always learning new and better ways to catch fish!
I must be missing out. I’ve tried jog fishing a few times. But always went back to a lipless crank. I don’t know why. I can’t seem to have any luck with jigs
Thanks Tyler, I appreciate you sharing your knowledge. Having a box full of jigs is great, but knowing how to properly use all of them is really the way to go. Keep up the good work, and God Bless.
I'm 45 years old and I'm from Pittsburgh, Pa. I literally just started fishing this year and I hooked. Man all your videos have been extremely informative and extremely helpful. I appreciate you doing these detailed videos. Thanks bro 🙏 Appreciate you!
I decided to finally commit and build some confidence with a jig this season and it has definitely paid off big time. Its like after getting my first bite on a jig, something just clicked and my confidence in them skyrocketed. Jigs definitely have a spot in my tacklebox.
So clear! Thank you , heading out tomorrow heading west on I 70. Stopping for sundown bites and sunup bites until I reach a Colorado trout River or not. Weather permitting and as I see fit. I’m fairly new but pretty old. Without a boat. Pointers always appreciated
I am glad you put this video out I have been wanting to try to fish with a jig but was I guess intimidated by them now I think I have a lil more understanding of them and can't wait to fish some as soon as I purchase a few lol
If you are bored like me here is a great recipe for a Beef Taco Skillet (it’s pretty good) INGREDIENTS- 1 pound ground beef 1 can (10 3/4 ounces) Campbell’s® Condensed Tomato SoupRegular or Healthy Request® or Classic Tomato Soup 1/2 cup Pace® Picante Sauce 1/2 cup water 6 flour tortilla (6-inch), cut into 1-inch pieces 1/2 cup shredded Cheddar cheese (about 2 ounces) DIRECTIONS Step 1 Cook the beef in a 10-inch skillet over medium-high heat until well browned, stirring often to separate meat. Pour off any fat. Step 2 Stir the soup, picante sauce, water and tortillas in the skillet and heat to a boil. Reduce the heat to low. Cook for 5 minutes. Stir the beef mixture. Top with the cheese. Enjoy! Consider looking at my channel or dropping a like I do fishing videos and tips (jk you do what you want 😂 have a good day!)
Great video 👏👏 One thing I have had success on a swim jig is retrieve it like you do in shallow water and kill it over the deeper weed edge. They pound it on the fall too
It's been my mission the past couple seasons to get a feel for fishing a football jig but I never seems to dedicate enough time to it. What do you think is the best time of year to throw the football jig? I'm in Northern Illinois so very similar weather patterns to Minnesota but our winters aren't quite as harsh.
I'm building a camper van now and will be taking myfisging rod with me any suggestions what sort of lure is the best? And in regards t the van check how I'm building it in on my channel.
Def depends on what want where your fishing but a small inline spinner is good for most species and can be picked up at any walmart or tackle shop. Best of luck
Thanks so much Tyler this video was super helpful I’ve been fishing the Arkie head and football jigs all wrong can’t wait to catch more fish oh them now👍🏻
Really awesome video man! Love your videos they're very educational and are great for young anglers like me. It's awesome having a TH-camr legitimately just teach, and not just promoting their own baits non-stop. Keep up the great stuff.
Another very informative video Tyler👍 thank you. I had no idea there was different types of jigs. Now I know🤙 I think I’m going to give the swim jig a try.
your video's made me a better senko angler! thanks! however, I can't seem to catch a fish on my swim jigs. probably because I tried using swim jigs at the beginning of fall. I live in the northeast.
Lol, I was like you, not a fan of jigheads and spinnerbaits but have seen the light. I am learning how to use a greater diversity of tools in tackle box.
Okay I have a question for you. I have a ark tracer 7ft medium heavy fast acting pole . Will have baits caster on it . What kind of line would you suggest on using for jig and crank bait.?Don’t really want to keep changing out line . The reel is 8.1.1 . Would like to use it for top water as well . [ whopper plopped }. Also have a medium light rod that’s 6’10” . Would like to use it for Texas rig and smaller lures . Will be fishing around 5-30 feet deep at times .
Question! How many jigs do you lose every summer when you’re fishing around wood/rocks? I always seem to get em snagged.. Haven’t really known how to fish a jig, got a few this summer and I’m excited to get back an try em out! Definitely appreciate the video.
Every time I see a video about how awesome swim jigs are I think to myself... "dangit, I really need to embrace the swim jig!" and then for some reason, I don't. I'm going to make an honest attempt to throw it till I get some fish on it this time. This was a truly excellent video. Possibly one of my favorites from you. Nicely done!
I caught stubborn bass on a mini footballjig and i was blown away because I had been fishing that area with swim baits and other craw soft baits.. threw one on and they started coming out for it and caught two back to back till they caught on
This may sound crazy but I have a hand tied brush jig. It has a different shape than a football jig. I have caught my pb jig fish on it by accident, I sat it down to eat a sandwich in 40 foot of water and the action of the water and waves set the hook and it was a three pound spot in clear water. I am moving into more jig fishing. My question is, there is no difference between the football, right? Brush jig, brush only or just more brush than normal plus deep dragin?
@@TylersReelFishing so I purchased a swim jig due to all of the vegetation in most of the small ponds and reservoirs around me. Should I have purchased a slower jig? Most of the bottoms are muddy here in Northwest Ohio.
Any advice for jigging hooksets from a kayak? I missed 2 good ones this weekend, the only two bites of the day too, smh. Fought them both for 5-10 seconds each before they got off. One spat it towards the surface after breaching and one threw it while down deep as I was reeling him in. Great content as always!
@@TylersReelFishing thanks for the reply dude looking forward to watching that video, appreciate you take the time to reply to questions in the comments
that song took me back to middle and high school...LOL Great video bro. Jigs are my least confident bait, but I am going to try and use some of these tips and tricks as i get back on the saddle here in Kentucky. Keep it up bro!!
I thought I was using my jig correctly and I wasn’t catching anything. After the video I adjusted my technique and started catching huge bass. I tip my hat to you Tyler 👍🏼🎣
Hey @tylerreelfishing have you tried the “One Cast Fishing” - Snagless Jigs? I’d like to see your opinion on these jigs. They have no weed guards, they are on a ewg hook. If you get the chance tells us what you think? Thanks for all that you do!
Just checked em out. I could see the benefits, but I also see one glaring downside, which is that the bait is resting above the hook, which will cause it to turn over on it's side on the bottom. I like a jig, because the trailer is on the bottom with the shank of the hook, allowing it to rest flat on the bottom. I could see the hookup ratio actually being worse on the snagless jig than a normal jig
This was my first bait with Dinger on it 4 different ways. Is been my go too. Every lake is different what the fish like to eat. But the jig is the one for all plastic can go on them.
Literally bought a spinnerbait for my first time fishing with fake bait in a while, I've never had good luck with anything but live bait (probably was technique) but I caught a 31inch Northern Pike yesterday :) Thanks to these videos
I love getting bit with the jig but I have the absolute hardest time finding bites consistently with it. And I have an even harder time finding bites in Florida black water. Any advice?
Great video. As always, I learned a lot. I’m going to make my best effort to actually do some jig fishing this year. I made the commitment and bought a bunch of them a couple months ago. I’ve always been sort of intimidated by them. After watching this video for the 4th time, it’s time I started. Your dad jokes are on point. Lol John 3:36
Most swim jigs utilize a light wire hook, for those I use 15 to 17 pound flouro and for heavier grass I use braid and a heavier hooked swim jig. I can bend out the standard hook with braid with my hook set.

TylersReelFishing hi Tyler can you help me on my TH-cam channel
Can u give me a shoutout I’m trying to get into TH-cam
They're legit, I've had one for years now. It's worth it.
Any tips for using a swim jig in a pond with a lot of weeds?
Love your video’s. Always learn alot
Been fishing for almost 40yrs and still learning stuff from you. Great videos sir, keep em comin
Love to hear it!
Master Class!! One of the best teaching fishermen in the game! Great stuff T!! One of the things I love about fishing is I’m always learning new and better ways to catch fish!
I appreciate that buddy!
once you get a feel for a jig they’re hard to beat
That’s so true
That is what I heard I have fished for years but just started lake fishing in August and just started jig fishing
I agree
I must be missing out. I’ve tried jog fishing a few times. But always went back to a lipless crank. I don’t know why. I can’t seem to have any luck with jigs
Theyre hard to get the hang I feel like. I kept using them and now I’m slaying with them, it definitely took some time tho its not the easiest imo
The football jig - deep water & displacing stuff on the bottom. A drag the bottom lure. A new insight for me. Thanks
Thanks Tyler, I appreciate you sharing your knowledge. Having a box full of jigs is great, but knowing how to properly use all of them is really the way to go. Keep up the good work, and God Bless.

One of the best fishing channel. Tyler gets straight to the point without leaving out any important info.
I decided to finally commit and build some confidence with a jig this season and it has definitely paid off big time. Its like after getting my first bite on a jig, something just clicked and my confidence in them skyrocketed. Jigs definitely have a spot in my tacklebox.
Let’s go!! That’s exactly how it works with the jig
I caught the biggest fish of the year for me on a jig a few weeks ago. Love the vids Tyler keep em coming!
Awesome! Congrats bud
Just discovered the finesse jig this year. Excellent description of the jig and how to fish it Tyler.
So clear! Thank you , heading out tomorrow heading west on I 70. Stopping for sundown bites and sunup bites until I reach a Colorado trout River or not. Weather permitting and as I see fit. I’m fairly new but pretty old. Without a boat. Pointers always appreciated
Glad you’re learning Andy!
Exactly what the doctor ordered. Plenty of videos saying what to use; not many showing how to use it. Thanks for the content!
I always wanna cover ALL parts of a fishing technique
I am glad you put this video out I have been wanting to try to fish with a jig but was I guess intimidated by them now I think I have a lil more understanding of them and can't wait to fish some as soon as I purchase a few lol
Awesome Charles!! Glad you enjoyed!
Nice timing, I just picked through about 4 of your videos looking for jig tips yesterday. Thanks for putting it all together!

I new to bass fishing and tyler has taught me quite a lot keep up the good work Lil bro
I’m so glad!
Great video! On your swim jigs, do you put your trailer on where the tail is vertical versus horizontal?
I talk about that in the video linked in the video description
You are starting to be my favorite site, Still Johnny & Randy on FTM, but you are giving us some great info.
Thanks roger!
Another very informative video Tyler👍 thank you. I had no idea there was different types of jigs. Now I know🤙 I think I’m going to give the swim jig a try.
Do it my friend!
Hey Tyler, just got some in my MTB for the month never used so this video is awesome thank you!
really helps thanks. My brother always uses jigs but i have only caught a couple on one but this still really helps.
I’m glad!
Awesome video. Clears up a lot. Just one question. What is a "casting jig"? Is that the same as an arkie jig?
Yes, usually implying the same thing
@@TylersReelFishing thanks.
your video's made me a better senko angler! thanks! however, I can't seem to catch a fish on my swim jigs. probably because I tried using swim jigs at the beginning of fall. I live in the northeast.
What type of trailer and jig should I fish for bank fishing? Wish I had a boat
The trailer doesn't change if you're on the bank. As a matter of fact, almost all tips I give on my channel from the boat apply to bank fishermen
@@TylersReelFishing thank you tyler for the reply I was just wondering what jig to use on the bank im a begginer?
always coming through with the knowledge, down to the last detail!!!!! thank you!!!!
Of course! Glad you enjoyed it!
You're getting better all the time. Thanks.

Thanks Nathan! Just COMMIT
You're doing an excellent job in explaining these lures. I will surely use what I have learned from your vids. THX!!
For a baitcasting combo would the lews mach smash work for jig fishing?

Hi there Tyler. Greetings from protugal. Been learning a lot with your videos. Thanks for sharing... keep up. All the best
Howdy! Thanks for watching!
You and Berger together, what a hoot! You guys are great. If you ever shore fish with a jig, would love to see that.
Two Tyler’s, what can go wrong!
i know this isn't really fishing related, but whats the name of the song that was used during the jig b-roll?
Realy enjoyed your video. Very good explanations , One of the best i have ever watched. Thanks, Keep up the great work. 👍

Thanks for watching Larry!
I just recently purchased a jig. Never really used one before. Hoping to learn how to use it this season of fishing.
I think you will! Check out my other videos I made on the jig, especially the one about a month ago. I think it will help you out a lot
@@TylersReelFishing so I purchased a swim jig due to all of the vegetation in most of the small ponds and reservoirs around me. Should I have purchased a slower jig? Most of the bottoms are muddy here in Northwest Ohio.
Song choice aged really well! Chef's Kiss!
Getting Jiggy! Love it :-)
Really like your fishing tips. I would suggest that you include a word on the type of line and pound test for each bait type. Keep the tips coming.
I do that in some videos, just hard to remember everything. General rule of thumb for jigs through is 17lb fluoro
Good video. I’m excited to try a swim jig. Thanks!

I have watched alot of ur vids on jigs and feel like I really understand how to use it know thanks man ur awesome
Let’s go!!
First love the vids i love the positivity in the videos keep it up👍👍👍
How would you work a flipping jig? No rocky bottoms around me here so I didn't get a finesse jig.
Just flip it, let it fall on slack line, hop quickly. th-cam.com/video/Rtp5iAKmvkw/w-d-xo.html
@@TylersReelFishing thanks for the reply dude looking forward to watching that video, appreciate you take the time to reply to questions in the comments
Much appreciated videos. The different retrieves and the specifics of that retrieve are worth their weight in gold. Thanks tyler
Arkie salty crawlin' grubs is a really good jig or creature bait. Easy to insert a jig or worm rattle in it. Very successful with them.
Today in my head I thought I should look up how to fish a jig. And this came up in my recommendation. This is a perfect title 👍🏼
Awesome! So glad!
I’d also suggest using a heavy swimjig like .5oz and up to blast through heavy cover, most bass haven’t seen that and it kills
Great idea!
Very informative thanks
Tyler, why do you use a medium heavy for a “finesse” jig instead of a medium or medium light?
Cause I set the hook less hard
@@TylersReelFishing good to know. I didn’t realize that you have to set a hook harder with a lighter power rod. Thanks!
that song took me back to middle and high school...LOL Great video bro. Jigs are my least confident bait, but I am going to try and use some of these tips and tricks as i get back on the saddle here in Kentucky. Keep it up bro!!

Your casting is extremely impressive
I am no good at jig fishing so this video was FIRE
YUHHH
I had a question with swim jigs do you use braided line of so what pounds of it's weedy
Mostly flouro
Thanks Tyler I used a jig today on Watts Bar lake in TN a d caught my personal best. 5lb 9oz
So cool!
Literally bought a spinnerbait for my first time fishing with fake bait in a while, I've never had good luck with anything but live bait (probably was technique) but I caught a 31inch Northern Pike yesterday :) Thanks to these videos

Do you reel in as you shake the fineness jig?
No, hops
Great instructional video. Thanks!
Thanks for watching bill!
Hey Tyler I have a question I’m an ameteur angler so I haven’t spend loads of rods and reels so is it okay that I have just one?
I would have at least 2 or 3
I love jig fishing awsom vid tyler
I love getting bit with the jig but I have the absolute hardest time finding bites consistently with it. And I have an even harder time finding bites in Florida black water. Any advice?
It's just a confidence thing. You've gotta use it and fail a bunch to eventually succeed. I have plenty of jig videos to help you as well! Good luck!
Thanks for the video I’m trying to pick a jig that I like so far I fished a swim jig no catches but I do like it
Keep trying!
How do you feel about customizing skirts? - multiple lengths? volume? Multi-colors? etc .
I’m in favor of it if you have a very specific forage species that fish are targeting. In most cases though, I don’t think fish are that smart
Question: does it help to thin out the weed guard or shape the weed guard or trim the weed guard on Jigs?
I haven’t found it really useful
What rod and reel combo do you recommend around $200 for Texas rigs, Carolina etc? Action, length, reel ratio etc
I’d say this combo! bit.ly/3PkybAn
That or the Crush combo
@@TylersReelFishing thanks! I’m gonna buy it and try them out
@@TylersReelFishing I went with the crush
Is tge inside padded or does the ridge wallet somewhat scratch your cards?
Nope. Not that I’ve noticed

Most swim jigs utilize a light wire hook, for those I use 15 to 17 pound flouro and for heavier grass I use braid and a heavier hooked swim jig. I can bend out the standard hook with braid with my hook set.
Great stuff 👍🏼
