Hey y’all I recently challenged myself to catch some bass on a swim jig in the middle of the day. Hope y’all enjoy.

Swim jig is one of my favorite baits, I’ve always caught them on it!

Gary could catch them out of a bathtub. One of the best anglers and nicest guys I know. Great video. I bet the crappie were glad you gave them a little break!

I throw a Santone Swimjig about 75% of the year out there. Great bait for sure!

I like 'em fine, especially when they are working.
'course I like whatever lure is working.
"..The pleasantist angling is to see the fish
Cut with her golden oars the silver stream,
And greedily devour the treacherous bait.

Looks like you were having fun. I love swim jigs. there are so many choices now. Early in the '90's I used ti big eye swim jigs from Barlow's and my buddy and i whacked time after time at Fork, Sandlin, Cypress Springs, and Monticello. Still always have one tied on.

I like fishing with any lure when it is catching fish!
