[QUOTE="BigUn, post: 26973, member: 273"] Jig & Pig. But since I did, I've caught TONS of bass on them and many times they are my "Go To" bait. Best thing I can tell you is that many times you won't feel a hit at all. Learn to be a line watcher. Sometimes it will just begin to swim the wrong direction. Set the hook! Hook sets are free. Other times as you lift your jig, it will feel a little "mushy" for lack of a better term. Set the hook! If fishing around heavy cover check your line OFTEN for nicks and abrasions. Re-tie often. I use All Star and BPS graphite rods and there are simply times when I don't feel the strick but just know by that mushy feeling that one is there. SET THE HOOK when ANYTHING just doesn't feel RIGHT! Everyone used to tell me that the strick on a jig is much like that of the strick on a worm. For me that is right about once out of 10 or 15 hits. Wish I could tell you more. Don't give up on it is deadly. [/QUOTE]
