    Default one or two


    Got a couple question for you guys. Do you use one or two jigs?
    If you use two, do you tie a loop for the top one or just attach it to the line?

    Thanks for any replies.

    I use two jigs most of the time, but fishing thick brushpiles and dipping lay downs I use one. The top jig I tie a surgeon`s loop and most of the I also tie a surgeon`s loop on the bottom jig. I can get by using these knots with power pro, its does not work for me using mono.

    I'll follow suit with Ron, except I fish mono exclusively. All I ever tie anymore are loop knots. I learned and still use the Hank Parker loop knot up top, I've modified it for the bottom. You just can't beat a loop knot. IMO Good luck

    I use two whenever it is practical. If I start getting lots of snags or tangles, I will just use one. Or in a situation where I want to go with really light tackle, I will only use one jig.

    I used to tie the top jig on a loop, but it got to be a tangled mess at times so I pretty much just tie both with a palomar. Two jigs is twice as much fun at my home lake because you double a lot.Thumbs Up

    I'm thinking CG ought to be looking good in a couple weeks. Give me a PM if you're interested in hooking up.
