Thanx Bryan. Just ordered some more finesse jigs. I'll give yours a try next order. I like throwing jigs because of the simplicity of the lure. No Tungsten weight to peg or not. What plastic, worm, craw or creature? Jigs are simple., only real decision is Arky or football head.
Yep, they are great lures, and with a couple of crawfish colors, couple of sunfish colors and a couple of baitfish colors, you've pretty much got it covered. Thanks for your feedback!
Maybe 1.5oz is a regular football jig for Bryan Thrift 🤷 It is a pretty compact jig, so the bait is still small, it's probably just a heavy head to get to the bottom, since he's crawling it around down there.
The jig is now the only lure in my bass fishing arsenal that I've never caught a bass with, and it's not like I haven't tried. I fish a jig every time I'm out fishing, and I use just about every method that the plethora of TH-cam content creators share in their videos. Do you use any kind of fish attractant scents on your jigs? I've had other popular baits that I'd never caught fish with before then out of the blue I suddenly got bit for the first time. It's crazy but, after that first bite, now all of the sudden I seem to l get bites on those previously ineffective baits on a regular basis. I can't explain how or why that happens. I must have just been holding my mouth the wrong way before I got that first bite. I'm still not there yet with a jig though. Hopefully things will change sooner rather than later.
It can take a while to dial in the right jig fishing technique for your local lake. It helps to be around stuff, with a football jig, it's often around rock. Other jigs are great around wood or grass, but sometimes a soft plastic makes more sense. As thrift points out, throwing some quick craw-like action can be the trigger.

Good luck on the trail, pulling for ya!

How do you consider a 3/8-3/4 a finesse jig?

He’s speaking to the profile size of the bait. The weight of a jig only affects the fall rate for the most part.
outstanding question I dont get it ?
TOP 👍👍👍
