Minners Vs Jigs... And the winner was
I got to witness jigs out catch minners yesterday. Not saying anything other than "I witnessed it on this one occasion".
Yesterday afternoon, from off the pier at Overcup landing, I watched as two gentlemen were fishing side by side and pitching to the same brush top, under a cork, set to similar (if not exact) depths. One gentleman was using a Bobby Garland bait, the other was using minnows. The Bobby Garland bait caught fish, after fish, after fish while the minnow was fruitless. By fruitless, I mean for the :20-:25 minutes that I watched the Bobby Garland probably caught 12 or more fish and the minnow caught 0.
