I've always been curious as to what types of jigs, spinners, tubes, etc other people use. I've been raised on hollow body jigs, but have heard of people using solid bodies and twister tails. Seen some jig heads with spinners, some single tail jigs or multi.
Just lookin for an idea of what ya'll use\like for different situations...
About the only difference in solid body and hollow body that I see is that the solid body will last a few bites longer. I use both, mostly Mid-South glow skirts and Rocky Mtn. solid. Next!
I mainly use Sats Sickle Runners and I Use solid body tubes on them most of the time. I do use hollow tubes sometimes and put Slab Sauce scent inside of them. I also like to run the Sickle Runners with out a jig skirt and tip them with a live minnow.
I use Southern Pro Umbrellas, ring tubes and solid bodys. Solids or rings when I'm spider rigging or recently, long lining and umbrellas when I'm single poling.

I experimented with the solid and ring bodies, but they seemed to fall weird for me. They all spiraled even after I re-hooked em. Probly user error tho.
The sickle jig heads, those the ones with the spinners? I've always liked the concept but never tried em. Hard to get live bait where I fish, though I think minners would work well especially right now under a bobber, though I like the tightline method better
Single poling sickle runners......Boooooooo!
Spider rigging or pulling them.....hooray!

that's why you can't catch no feesh! I wore them out in the spring single poling. In 6 trips I had 4 limits and 2 near limits. Single poling them will also work in the summer in the deep timber on the rezQuote:

Don't let these guys rag you too much MO, there ain't a thing wrong with single pole. Some of us don't need 40 poles to catch a mess of fish...lolQuote:

Speaking of limits....I 'bout had my limit of smack talk outta you Triton. I done whipped you like a rented mule twice over and you still at it. The final nail in you coffin is a comin'. Once might be a fluke, twice could be considered only a trend but 3 in a row...........that what they call a certainty. Don't forget your promise to wear the T shirt that reads "Wannabe took my money and made me cry" when I do make it a 3pete.
I didn't say they wouldn't work....I just don't like the odd feel they put on me during the fall and they're somewhat unpredictable on the fall in cover. Makes for extra hangups.

a'ite...y'all know better than to hi jack a thread about sats sickle runners. You have had it now....I bet ya get put on the list. :D
Ha I like to hear the diff. arguments for the lures to see if they may work for me... I figger if WB can catch a fish on it, shoot I should be able to get a limit!
First and foremost is minnerz! I like Southern pro umbrellas and Mid-South tackle Superjigs.
Is there a huge difference in the umbrellas and the regular 1.5 jigs action wise?
I know I used to really like the single tail stinger jigs, anybody else got any opinions on these, or other swim baits such as sassy shad or things of that nature?
The umbrellas are just really fat! I like a big ole bait for them butla and Grenada slabs.Quote:

U accidentally catch a fish WB? I may have to request pictures on this....
MO, I will have to say (from fishing the rez anyway) it does seem the summer crappie like them fat umbrella bodies better than most. I also, if the wind allows, use a 1/32 oz head for them.
Don't try it at butla either!;)Quote:

Don't waste your money on Bobby Garland Strollers either. You'll hate them for pushing around with a trolling rig. It'll slap ruin a peaceful afternoon on the water and who would want that?
Wannabe...
Is that considered a twister tail? Never used them much
You can't afford 'em no how......just forget I mentioned it. :)
And definitely don't go looking at the glow ones neither.

Man ya'll are killin me. Gonna need to take out a HELOC
