Which method do you prefer?

I love fishing with minnows but slowly working maribou jigs around trees is great too.


On average, your heart beats 100,000 times a day. One day, one of those heartbeats will be your last. Then what?

The answer is found in Jesus Christ who said "I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly." John 10:10

I've made some jigs myself and can't catch anything with them. Store bought ones work better than mine. Wonder what I'm doing wrong!

Slow trolling in deep water is most effective during the colder month!
