All are good at different times, lakes and situations. C
feelay told me it's against the law to troll without minners in sippi.....
Feesh is right..............i"ve had success on plain jigs of all kinds through spring. Not much so in the summer.....with minnows being a necessity.
It'll work, but I think they hold on to a minnow just a little longer.
I always do good on minners... But guess I need to change. Every time there is a big tourney the winners always seem to be catching the big uns and winning on what emblem is on there shirt. Lol lol
Haha! Yep, I reckon the minner farms prolly owe me some freebies the way I been peddling the virtues of their bait!:RoflQuote:

Whether or not I use a minnow depends on the lake and time of year. I have never needed a minnow in Okatibee but have had to have them in Barnett. Generally during the spring all I use is a jig and nibble
guess the fact that I single-pole fish till hot weather. I will need the minnows .:biggrin then on to pulling cranks .:ThumbsUpQuote:

I like using lft live baby shad plactics quite a bit
ScottV's. Rabbit hair jigs work good for me.....also Crappielogic jigs
OK I MAKE MY OWN JIG HEADS AND USE MIS-SOUTH TUBES MAINLY CAUSE THEY HOLD UP BETTER . IF YOU ARE TROLLING REALLY SLOW THE ROADRUNNER DOESN'T HAVE ENOUGH ACTION TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE . I FISH SINGLE POLE OR DOUBLE POLE ALL YEAR WITH NIBLETS . "NO MINNERS " ARE HARMED IN MY BOAT (WIFES RULES ) . I KNOW WHEN IT GETS HOT IT GETS HARDER TO CATCH THEM BUT YOU CAN . I LEARN SOMETHING NEW EVERYTIME I GO OUT . I LIKE 1/16 OR 3/32 JIG HEAD . SO THERE IT IS . AND YOU CAN CATCH FISH WITHOUT MINNERS . :rolleyes:
I do alright at times pushing Sat Jigs with a Southern Pro tube and their Hot Grubs. I like my minnerz tho.
Hanging out with Jig Flinger, I bet you get your share of freebies. :)Quote:
