    Default Favorite jig


    I couldn't find a thread about this here, so I'll just see how this goes. What is your favorite jig---weight---color combination, etc?

    I know that different colors work better in different types of water, but if you had to choose one, what would it be?

    I guess mine would be a 1/16 oz tube jig with a white body and chartreuse tail.

    1/16 OR 1/8 oz Black and Chartruse hair jig that I tie.90% off the time this is the jig that does it where I fish. Topped with a nibble of course.

    I've used the nibbles a time or two, but not noticed any difference. Do you think it makes that much difference? Also, do the hair jigs work better than the plastic ones?

    Polebender, I don't know if a hair jig is any better than a tube most of the time. In cold water the hair gives more action due to the cold water stiffing up the plastic. I like the hair jigs primarily because they are more durable, I have fished the same hair jig for a couple days before it gets ratty. As far as the nibbles go, the water I fish is generally pretty stained, and I think it helps the fish find the jig and hang on a little longer. They seem to help me, might just be a fluke though, but they do seem to help.
