My tip: when using jigs upgrade your size. Go from 1/16 and 1/8 oz jig head to 1/4 oz. Increase the jig length from 1-1 1/2 to 2 inches. Works great for other sexiest too such as bass. I have caught largemouth bass while fishing for green sunfish. Now that is fun on light tackle.[cool]

what do u attach to your jig head? i usally just attach a peice of clam meat or nightcrawler to the jig head.

Other than a plastic curly rail grub I would put a piece of worm or perch meat on.
