A Jig....never caught a bass off of one....ZERO confidence! so i rarely tie it on. This is what I'm afraid of. I'm new to fishing outside of ponds and I just don't have confidence with the jig yet. They look cool with a fat trailer so I keep buying them. Just pretend it is a Tx. rig when you throw it.

Those not catching on buzzbait blows my mind. They are awesome. Tri-wing over lily pads will catch big fish, especially during the hot summer days. Can't even comprehend not having one tied on. Big fish love it.

was that purchased because of the Falcon Lake stringer that was reportedly caught using this from 7 or so years ago? Probably, I don't remember but that's around the time frame I bought them. I think you may be thinking of Del Rio's Keith Combs who won the PAA tournament on Tawakoni a couple years ago, fishing docks. Yes, I own half a dozen and no I've not thrown one. I remember when the Lunker Lure first came out, way back in the 70's. They had field tested it on Toledo Bend and had sounded like a possible maybe but after buying two and looking at them I figured I would not be caught dead throwing something that stupid looking. Then next year the Texstar Bass Club here in Arlington was fishing Toledo Bend on a two day spring trip. The first day was overcast and we did pretty well on spinnerbaits. The second day was clear and hot. Nothing going on and about 10 I looked and saw the two I had bought the previous year. One was white, the other chartreuse. So for fun over on the Louisiana side across from Huxley Bay I started throwing it out. My partner turned the other way and kept fishing. I think he was annoyed that I took that loud thing out while he was seriously fishing. You can guess what happened. Second or third cast, fish. Another couple casts, another fish. We put the trolling motor on high and started catching a limit which for our club back then was ten. They seemed to only want the white one so when I finished my limit I gave it to Ron and he caught a couple before we went back to the weigh in. Good times.

Being the helpful guy I am, I will take all the buzzbaits and hollow body frogs off your hands that are just taking up space.
