Bass Fishing Jigs are the Secret to Big Bass!



If lunker bass are what you desire there is one bass fishing lure that can put the big ones in the boat.Bass fishing jigs are one of the greatest bass lures for catching those monster bass

I will talk about some of the techniques to choose for the best catch.

Before you decide whether or not to put a trailer on the bass fishing jig it might be appropriate to talk about the purpose of the trailer.

Bass trailers give your jig two advantages. One of the advantages of a jig trailer is to give your jig more body and life. Bass are a fish that likes to attack unsuspecting prey.

The trailer will make the jig look more life like. The trailer will make the jig look like a crayfish. the legs on the trailer will appear like the claws of the crayfish. This is one of the favorite foods for bass.

The shape of a bass jig head is very important. There are many shapes available in bass fishing jigs. You will find oval jigs, pointed jig heads, and the list goes on.

The shape is argued by many a fisherman, It really comes down to your own personal choice. Many anglers will choose an oval shaped head because this style will sit up on the bottom bringing the trailer to life and looking as if its trying to defend itself. This action will many times provoke a strike from a bass.

There are bass jigs that have a weed guard and bass jigs that do not. The most common jigs usually have a weed guard. The trick to using a bass fishing jig with a weed guard is to trim it back a bit.

The purpose for this is to make sure that the bass will hook itself properly when it bites down on the jig.

A lot of fisherman have lost big lunker bass for not doing this.
