As a nearly 30 year old young adult; who has fished his whole life and continues to learn more everyday, I can proudly say the first lure I was taught to catch fish with was a jig. PawPaw always made the importance of hopping and leaving it in the water known. Seeing this simple video made me feel real nostalgic and miss the days when we were able to fish together. Thanks for the video Randy!
I had the pleasure of spending the day fishing with Terry Thomas as a co angler on Bull Shoals Lake in the old Central Pro Am circuit. Terry had a 3/8 and 1/2 oz jig tied on. Both were black and blue Aleron jigs with flippin blue Zoom chunks as trailers. The fish were post spawn and he was doing exactly as you described. Probably a little more aggressive since it was post spawn. The rod made a whirring noise when he popped up the jig. Needless to say he caught a limit and I learned a ton watching him. Great memories. Thanks.
Randy, I’m not sure if you go through and read all of these but if you do I want to say thank you.. I watch a lot of TH-cam fishing videos and I find that yours are the best and most informative. I live in north central Arkansas so a lot of the techniques you talk about work perfect for me. Wish you the best and hope your channel continues to grow.
Denny Brauer showed and taught me jig basics ( when BASS still allowed landing nets in tournaments) Les Hiesler instilled the confidence ( a flipping stick was the only thing allowed) Now I thank you guys for new tips as well as reminders. Thanks for the videos Tight lines and Godspeed
This is the type of info that is priceless to younger anglers into jig fishing or wanting to learn about bass fishing. Had an old head teach me the same thing when I became obsessed with jig fishing here in Southern KY in the 90s. Honestly hearing you talk about it was crazy how much it reminded me of hearing it from him. For what it's worth anyone into night fishing this technique is amazingly effective too.
Excellent tutorial Randy, I appreciate all your professional knowledge and expertise, I’ve purchased all about 2dozen of your jigs can’t wait to start fishing them, it’s about time somebody made a live rubber jig, so excited, just waiting for the water temperatures to come up in the panhandle of West Virginia.
Great video Randy! I need to put this advice to work. My issue is I’ve had so many fish caught on the fall that once I’ve pitched in and don’t get the initial bite I’ve already looked ahead to an even juicier spot to pitch to next! But I’ve been taking a lot of your advice and it’s definitely moved my game to another level these last 2 years. No reason to think this advice is any different. Thanks for everything you share bud it’s definitely much appreciated
I was doin this in taylor creek, got a 3lber that smoked the 1oz jig and chunck trailer ! I lost it due to my rod being too high to hookset,so I reeled hard,and the fish jumped off! Guessing my 1oz was thrown..😅 but it generated a good reaction. Thx Randy
Thanks Randy all these jig tips are super awesome . Hey Randy can you do a video on fishing the big 10 inch worms in brush piles God bless you and your family your pal fisherman Mike.
I absolutely suck fishing a jig, I can honestly say I've never caught a jig fish! Sad to admit but it's true. I've caught bass on wobble head jigs. I have a couple football jigs I'll have try put them in water & commit some time to them with your advice. I can catch fish on big swimbaits but not a jig!?? Much appreciated as always
Hey Randy I ordered my second round of jigs on Jan 23rd from bait wrx and still have not received even a conformation as to when it’s gonna ship. Didn’t know if you had any insight to this or not.
9/10 times the biggest bass i've caught were caught on this technique and probably half of those were doing it unintentionally i.e. snagged on a limb or halfway wedged in a fork. They will absolutely hammer a jig to keep it from getting away from them.
I ordered some in January and got an order number, and that's it. Crickets since then. Even emailed them about the jigs and not getting them yet. Still just silence. Maybe I will get them next prespawn...
I must’ve got mine before the shortage. It’s well worth the wait guys. I tie my own and these things are great. Wish I knew where to get the specific rubber for these. Anyway in my opinion it’s worth a little bit of hassle. Getting ready to order some more
Hate jig fishing. When I see jig fishermen, they are amaters to me. Sorry. That's how I feel, not bthat they don't catch. They're terrible fishing lures. Sorry if I hurt feelings.
Meanwhile, a large majority of pro fishermen win tournament after tournament using jigs. But hey, jig fishermen are amateurs, am I right? Dude, you aren’t hurting feelings…you are embarrassing yourself.
We had alot of guys in our club that were scared of the jig. I handed their asses to them with it.. I'm glad some people dont like the jig, easy picken dollars from their wallets...hehe

Your authenticity is refreshing.

Lord willing I’ll try this out this weekend! Thanks for the advice!
Caught 3 bass on my lunch break doing exactly this! What timing of the bud to confirm why I had success 😎👌

I hope to one day be as good a teacher as you. Tight lines bro.
Great tip!
What rod is good for jig fishing?
Let’s go thanks for the info! Still working on finding someone to be a Canadian representative for the old-school jig

The trophy pop! that what we call it.
Could you please do a video talking about Texas retreives??
Love it
This works. Done it many years.
Randy, do you do this with Texas Rigged baits as well?
9/10 times the biggest bass i've caught were caught on this technique and probably half of those were doing it unintentionally i.e. snagged on a limb or halfway wedged in a fork. They will absolutely hammer a jig to keep it from getting away from them.
Always telling the boy "if its not in the water, you can't catch the fish" !
Loving the hat!!!😁day time tip in the "Tackle Room"🤓still stuck on the jerkbait😕come on 75k!!!
75k would be sweet!
My biggest large mouth, caught on a black jig with purple 1/2 worm trailer hopping.
Snap snap hop hop
Terry who?
Hopefully I can use this secret….if I ever get my jigs…..
It should be any day. I think they have about 95% of the orders completed. You might check with them tomorrow to see
@@randyblaukatintuitive thanks for the response! They decided to ignore my email a couple days ago so thanks for the update

@@jeremybeatenbaugh3269 I’ll check

Im taking that you suck at jig fishing.
I have won more tourneys on the jig than any other lure. There's so many ways to fish it.
Meanwhile, a large majority of pro fishermen win tournament after tournament using jigs. But hey, jig fishermen are amateurs, am I right? Dude, you aren’t hurting feelings…you are embarrassing yourself.
This dude is obviously just trying to get a reaction OR he’s a idiot and wants attention. Both
