Really have a lot of confidence in a skirted jig now.

:eyebrownod:  Always been my go-to lure.

I call what you make a spinnerbait. Cut the wire off at the head and thats a jig to me. Some callem skirted jigs or flippin jigs or jig n pig?  Idk too many different names for same thing. In this area most people think of a jig as a tube jig.  I havent seen many people use a skirted jig or jig n pig ever. Pretty much there is no way to not use it right. Throw it n hop it. Pop it off the bottom. Shake it drag it or swim it. Most of my hits are when its dropping on the intial fall. I'll let it sit then pop it a few times off the bottom and let it sit. Usually if a fish doesnt hit it on the fall they do on the second fall.

The fish i caught friday were on ledges and rocks that you could throw up on and when it would fall off they would hit it as well.
