Thread: Gnats what I'm talking about

Hey, theygotaeat, is there an advantage to fishing gnats over using hair jigs? Just curious. I have never seen gnats until you posted some pictures of some you had tied a couple months ago. Do the gnats out-catch hair or plastic jigs? I may try my had at tying one. It will probably look like a joke. LOL. I would think they would be perfect during the spawn when the fish are shallow. Is that a good assumption?

The real advantage to me is when you are fishing a jig and minnow combo with the gnats there is no weight so it's easier for the minnow to be more active
Also when spider rigging multiple hooks with minnows if the minnow gets off your hook you still have a lure

Look on you tube
Crappie candy
Watch a couple videos
Then tie up some
Can't wait to see your work

That's what I call it to, and it's itchy if you swim in it

I call it coon tail also, and if you find it, you usually find fish!
