Swim Jiggin': Back to Basics

[tqadir007]

no fish no care

[HuskerFishing]

thanks for clearing that stuff up

[cb7pwn]

OR.... you could just use a snap swivel... fish are stupid, they ll eat anything, trick to successful fishing is not obsessing over your gear

[TheLovetocatchbass]

you need to learn the homer circle knot. its alot stronger than the palamar.id also recomend the nanofil knot which it stronger than the palamar to but not as strong as the homer circle. i know this because of something on a fishing site called knot wars.

[ipsdrew]

@TheLovetocatchbass The fact that they are stronger is irrelevant. The palomar is a 100% knot meaning the line will break before the knot does. The palomar is simple, strong, and far quicker to tie than the homer or the nanofil

[sk8jtX69]

Do you think a Bass pro shops Flippin' Craw would work well as a trailer?

[TheRedsoxrule34]

press 4 really fast

[MrOzzy015]

i like the different color combo thts a awesome ideal to do i do tht all the time when i bass fish

[TheCheaterFilms]

You know what youre talking about, and i especially like your approach on the hookset. Respect.

[illusionistpg13]

Ur so cool!! I swear your the coolest dude around ha. So dope

[loudog4eva]

My pa taught me that knot, it's the only one I'll tie, but anyway, I'd love to fish with you dude :D

[king76124]

when did u get hooked to fishin

[tyte90]

Good info!

[TheBigtime56]

ur using suffix mono, but i would recomend seaugar red label flurocarbon. it is cheap, only 11 bucks. it lets you bait get down deeper when your using a diving bait, and it sinks, unlike mono, so you can feel the lure better. 15lb. test will handle any situation, and its vety thin, so you can cast lighter baits with it very well. i've used suffix seige mono, and its great. but for under water baits i think you'll REALLY like flurocarbon. but use mono for topwaters, it gives them better action!

[HuskerFishing]

I noticed that you guys have been having similair weather lately. I'm going monday, i'm thinking about throwing a creature bait i picked up, a yum wooly bug I believe its called. Also thought about throwing a yum craw papi in a junebug color. What do you think. I have bunch of yum 7.5 in ribbontails but I just don't think they're gonna be wanting to nail that. Been working on getting some jigs and trailers.

[kiusthugs]

does all swim jigs have rattles?

[HuskerFishing]

@kiusthugs no not all, some don't. Depends on what you like.

[thesimplej15]

those trailers rule

[FreshwaterAngling]

Do a vid of your boat if you are selling I am looking for a decent boat.

[bassmaster716]

ill take ur boat and i f u ever sell tht crucial ill take it

[bassmaster716]

ill take ur boat

[thefishmaster123]

i was watchin some fishing shows and i saw a really good lure, its called a gary yamamoteo swimming senko, and you just hook em up, cast em out, and reel em in. do you think you could put one of those as a trailer on a swin jig, it sounds like a good idea to me

[mabuckbass69]

hey plz reply i haven ben fishing for ten years now and ive ben watching youtube vids and i bought a camera and just started putting vids up eny way i saw on one of your videos you had a hudd and ive ben fishing a 6" rambow trout hudd and ive cought 3 bass on it and ive had it for a year now do you know a beater way to fish it?

[clewi1091]

@mabuckbass69 Try a different color maybe. Are there any rainbow trout in the lake your fishing for bass to eat even?

[mabuckbass69]

hey plz reply i haven ben fishing for ten years now and ive ben watching youtube vids and i bought a camera and just started putting vids up eny way i say on one of your videos you had a hudd and ive ben fishing a 6" rambo trout hudd and ive cought 3 bass on it and ive had it for a year now do you know a beater way to fish it?

[GameFishermen]

what other jigs to you recommend, I'm mainly shopping around for new ones since theres alot of christmas specials around, not just swim jigs, but flipping jigs as well?

[PILLOWPRODUCTIONS100]

i love using the baby paco craw my favorite color is oakuchobe magic the go crazy for that all year

[TeamRippnLipz1]

Good tips

[humloya]

How about ussing a low speed reel like the curado E5, dont you think that the jig will have abetter swim action?

[j0j0barz33]

@humloya It would but what if I needed to crank fast. It's just not me to buy a reel just for slow movement I can easily do that with a slower hand movement

[humloya]

@j0j0barz33 Yeah I agree but on my experience, I have several crankbaits that i have a problem with the retrive speed because those are made for very slow movement, even that I have a Daiwa Procaster PT100 rel.6.3:1.

I guess the speed depends on the way that you handle the reel.

[BamaBassinboys]

theres a easier way to do that know

[BetterBassin]

like a spinnerbait if you ask me work good with money minnows and stuff on the back

[ZachmanTheFisherman]

you should make a vid on your swimbaits and swimbaits setup.

[raplamaster03]

is that your boat?

[j0j0barz33]

@raplamaster03 nope, renter

[raplamaster03]

@j0j0barz33 do you have a boat?

[j0j0barz33]

@raplamaster03 Yea im trying to sell it tho

[j0j0barz33]

@CRFmxracer haha him

[CRFmxracer]

@j0j0barz33 ight thts what i thought

[CRFmxracer]

@badcatmcconell1324 yes i own every swimjig available for purchase i know it for a fact d00d

[CRFmxracer]

@j0j0barz33 greatest. comment. EVER!!!!

[j0j0barz33]

@badcatmcconell1324 What makes me a pro is that I'm better than you and KVD and I'm sponsored by shimano, berkley, damiki, tackle warehouse, lucky craft, and 100 others. Now that I've answered you question and ignored the other half of your comment do you have anymore? Or am I just wasting your time? Wouldn't want to do that to you or any thing

[Winkiedoodles]

Jigs are great baits to have with you at all times. Sometimes they are the "go to" bait, just like many other wonderful lure choices available nowadays.

[madskillz12392]

keep jerking it and working it back to the boat as well, cuz the bass will still hit in that open water too.

[flurbsmcgurgs]

always pull the tag end

[CRFmxracer]

swimjigs weedguard almost always isnt heavy duty its usually gives pretty easily. if it was heavy duty you would miss a ton of fish because they would hit it and the brush guard wouldnt give enough for them to get hooked. also swimjigs are commonly 1/4 to 1 ounce so they can be the same weight as other jigs. and also you said swimbaits on jigs isnt considered swimjigging. most pros tip their swimjigs with swimbaits lol. not being critical lol great vid jon.

[j0j0barz33]

@CRFmxracer I completely disagree with weed guards. I don't think you realize how hard a bass can hit, ever hear a bass hit topwater? Thats the force and power along with hookset that can chomp a lure, a heavy weed gaurd isn't going to stop a fish from getting hooked. And honestly just because a pro does it, means nothing. A pro could fish with a fork does it mean a forks gunna work better? Not really. And I never said it isn't swimjiggin I said it defeats the purpose and its more of a swimbait

[bassnager]

personally i like to tie the improved clich knot because the palomar knot gets caught in the rubber. But thats just my opinion. Great video though!

[j0j0barz33]

@bassnager So true man, everything else is easy to tie with a palamor. I hate to hassle with that but I'd rather take the time.

[flurbsmcgurgs]

kewl boat what brand is it?

[j0j0barz33]

@flurbsmcgurgs idk not mine, I know its not a big name or anything

[swimbaitkid]

Dude.. If you make a knot in the line there is NO way you can still get a 100% knot.

[j0j0barz33]

@swimbaitkid 100% knot to break? Yea i know the lines going to brake at the kink in the line

[11VINNYP11]

We should have a small tourney before it gets to cold

good vids but i persoelly would not suggest a boo jig for pure swim jiggin. its definately more of a flippin jig. and try more of a stroke or swim stop, and if u use a craw trailer use it towards the bottom and if its a grub or a twintail grub or swimbait towards the top. lol srry not trying to get on u. like i said great vid!!

[j0j0barz33]

@Fshrmn13 swimbaits keep the bait from falling and that tail is gunna get caught in the weeds..good technique but its more a swimBAIT rather than a swimJIG. I don't like booyah It was the only swimjig I had, and usually a flipping jig will have a heaver skirt, and have heavier weight. Same type of jig head of course you could use any jig for any technque its just the types of jigs that add to a technique not make up one

good stuff man, keep it comin :)

[cheese1144]

for all of the anglers in the south west, bass aren't really biting on plastics or jig try live bait like night crawlers or blood worms. they bite on jigs, spinners, and cranks in late fall early winter just before what i call, hibernation but they just lay low and don't bite a whole lot .

[cheese1144]

good video, i like how you can go back and help new anglers like myself to learn swim jig, also the Palomar is a great knot for deep brush and timber, my buddy's dad is great friends with Huddleson and even he said its a great knot. thank for the video Jon. my Buddy's fathers name is Tod Holder he is a pro class bass angler and has won many So-Cal lake fishing torments
