Pulling Jigs with a cork?
Hey guys have any of you ever pulled jigs with a cork above it? The reason I ask is I have an uncle that is just wearing them out right now in a small lake by my house thats not very deep doing this. The lake is only about 6 ft at deepest and probably is 4 ft average. It has some really nice perch in it and he has been filling up coolers these past few years in the winter doing this. He has shown me his set up and I have tried time and time again unsuccessfully. All he does is tie a 1/8 oz head and tube jig on to a line with a swivel about 2ft above it. The he puts a cork about 2ft above the swivel and pulls them( usually 4 poles at a time) as slow as his trolling motor will go on constant. He says he never stops when he catches a fish. He just reels em in slow. I usually push jigs but with the way he is catching them I wouldn't mind learning this technique. Anybody ever do this?

Here's something some buddies of mine that tourney fish the MCC are doing to long line jigs.

I'm told that Offshore is making a float kit for their mini boards so you can free spoil them into place. I used this method. Just attach an egg shaped float to the top of the mini boards. Red is right and green is left. I got my floats at Lakeway in Nader, cut out a wedge in the float and super glued them on the board. Take extra glue just in case one comes off.
