Tips for Choosing and Fishing Jigs
- Match Weight to Current and Depth: Use lighter jig heads (1/8 oz to 1/4 oz) for shallow grass flats, and heavy weights (1/2 oz to several ounces) when facing ripping tides, deep bridge channels, or offshore reefs.
- Master the Retrieve: Vary your technique based on the species—bounce a jig slowly across the bottom for flounder and bottom-dwellers, or snap it aggressively through the water column for snook and schooling pelagics.
- Pair with Quality Soft Plastics: Combine unpainted or colored jig heads with matching paddle tails or shrimp profiles to create a customized presentation that mimics local baitfish.
