Hello and my jigs

[fish_4_all]

Let's see, the curved hook mustad 37160 in size 6 I threw over 35 feet on a good cast. The straight shank size 6 extra long Eagle Claw I threw right at 30 feet and this was using a 5' Shakespeare 2 piece rod with 6# test. Both have one wrap of lead core line on them the length of the jig/fly.

I always wondered though why the segmentation matters? If the colors really offset each other then maybe like the Bream colored one but the worm colored ones, I am not sure. Might be the clearness to them, might be the segmentation and the crochet that gives them a "I'm gonna eat that" look to trout but they work really well for them. The pink, orange and bright colored ones just work for whatever reason. Whatever the reason, I have tried the segmented crochetted ones beside ones that I simply wrapped the lace around the hook and the crochets worked better. Better action maybe, I don't know.
