    As a 13 oy kid I questioned the price the guy said you get more when you by 3 doz/for a dollar I said you better get at least 3 doz
    This was in Woods Reservoir near Tullahoma TN at a cooling water outlet
    Dang, in college my girlfriend broke up with me over my small minnow problems.

    I used this last two times trolling and I am impressed. I was surprised how this out fish other baits and color on a cloudy day and stained water. I would have thought this was a more clear water color. I am getting hooked on this bait and color.
    What size/ color jig head are you using? I just pick up some of those the other day.

    He was using 1/16 and tipping these with minnows too, those baits are great over brush, no minnows needed

    I used these jig bodies in Chart/Red Flake at hartwell yesterday. Had Chart/white curly tails on too. The bobby garland out peformed by a long shot.

    While I like using larger profile baits at certain times...the advertising is misleading. I have caught some very large fish on 1/32 oz. hair jigs, and to be fair have caught some large fish on 3" plastics also. I think it depends on several factors, presentation for one...size of baitfish in the area could also be a factor. There is a place in my boat for the spectrum of colors/sizes/shapes of jigs. I've seen the times when each one was critical to success. Just my .02
