How many of you never buy minnows & just fish maribou jigs or plastics under bobbers?
Never fish live baits.
I've never used minnows, very rarely use floats.

If I’m gonna Float-n-fly, I’ll pull them at slow speeds with 6-8 rods out the back. All will have jig heads under a float and some will be jigs only, some minnows only, and then a combo with jigs tipped with minnows. I’ll let the fish determine what they like.
Me either. I use a lot of Trout Magnet foam floats with plastics and it works fine.Quote:

Either pitch to cover or vertical down to the fish.

No minnows but will use a float and hair or plastic in shallow water. Usually spawning time.

No minnows here either. There are times I will use a float though.
I wondered about it at night since they aren’t biting it that good vertical jigging.
I grew up fishing a jig under a float. Started in the mid sixties. Was easier for a wee younguns to catch fish.
When l lived on Douglas lake in Tennessee during the winter months the preferred method of many fishing was a float and jig, some tipped with minnow and many limits of crappie were caught using this method.
It is also good spring time spawning.
