CreekCrappie, those to jigs in your pics can be deadly on Dale Hollow on a moonlite summer night. Cast toward rocky banks and hop/drag the bottom back to you.

I catch a ton on jigs.

Swimming a bluegill skirt jig around bluegill spawn and at night in summer is nasty good. Swimming a sexy shad skirt around docks post shad spawn is just as good.

For normal jig fishing i go brown/orange jig green pumkin trailer for old hick and black/blue every where else i fish.

Another great way to fish them is stroking on the ledges in summer or burning them cranking up ledges maintaining bottom contact.

That's funny because I'm almost exactly the opposite. I NEVER go bass fishing without a jig and pig tied on of some sort. I haven't thrown a Beaver or D-Bomb in probably 2 years and I used to throw Beavers pretty religiously, especially in tournaments.
