Have you ever bought jigs that would not catch a fish ? I took a bet that I could catch crappie on a 4 inch piece of red yarn . Doubled and tied it was about 1. 75 long . Took 5 minutes to catch one .

:popcorn. This may get interesting
Depends on the bite of course..
I’ve caught quite a few on a bare jig head and a bare hook when I threw it in the water looking for a new jig body.
I made a jig using a old piece of black trot line. The red ear love it.

I guess I have, usually ends up in the bottom of some box for years. By then it’s fodder for the trash man.
Probably no such thing as a bad jig. Only a bad time to use them
My dad once picked up an old torn up split up faded out milky looking Bobby Garland that someone threw out at the boat ramp and hooked it up and fished with it for a while before finally giving it up. Said he was catching free fish that day. :biggrin
Dang, I was hoping to spend my way into catching fish! Working at it hasn't helped much.:RoflQuote:

All you guys bragging that you can catch a crappie on anything, I've got a challenge for you!
