Thread: Setup

I use a slip cork and tube jig and change depths often till I start getting bit...then it gets a lot easier. I ain't figured out tight lining yet cause I have trouble knowing what depth I'm fishing at so the slip cork makes it easier for me. IMO depth is by far the most important factor. You can be fishing the right structure the right total depth of water and the right color, but if your bait is 2 feet above or below the fish, you ain't catching squat. Sometimes I get my first bite fishing to deep and the fish will pick it up about a foot or two before the jig gets to the depth it's set at, that's when I know to shallow up. Oh and some times you just gotta throw a beetle spin around to catch em. Who knows...
