Anybody jig any timber in NC? There's no visible standing timber where I fish and never hear anybody talk about it. Watching all the videos on YouTube makes me want to feel a thump.

I vertical jig all the time, anything I can find in the water!
most places around here they cut timber before filling lake so we have to put it back,lol. like countryboy said jig brush stumps rocks and anything that may hold a few,i like to see them first on di or si.
Jordan Lake would be your best bet. When the lake was built, there were trees left standing in a couple places. They are in around 20 +/- ft of water. It's not just a tree here or there but off the banks about halfway out so navigation across the lake isn't much problem. However, they have rotted at the waterline but still standing underwater so be careful if you get very far into a section. I know a few people who used to fish in the timber at night(minnows and jigs) and caught a cooler full of good sized fish.
