Yes! The Griff man made an appearance. We were waiting for his insight on fishing the Football Jig. No doubt he has it fine tuned. Lol. Can't wait for the next showdown.

Bahahahaaa...I spit up my coffee when Grif came out with that championship belt...don't change a fuggin thing with this channel.

I love these breakdown videos. My fav football jig trailers are the Netbait Paca chunk, Yamamoto Double Tail Grub, and the Yamamoto Flappin Hogg. Great video!

More awesome info... Thanks Ben!!

Insightful? Absolutely! The presentation was so thorough in explaining the “why”. I have Dirty Jigs. Just need to get comfortable with them. Definitely need to refresh the smaller jigs. Thank you so much for taking tome to educate. So nice to have videos fron Az anglers. Excited to return to Bartlett and Roosevelt after my hip heals. Thank you again.

You guys are raising the bar. Straight 🔥

Excellent breakdown as always. I’m old school Yamamoto Double most of the time and then a Craw/Beaver as well.

Great video! I’ve been fishing the Dirty Jigs for awhile, but will have to try the Deps and OSP finesse jigs. Also love the Griff cameo! Lmao

Bad ass video! New to your store but appreciate the breakdowns and action on the tank! Been a kietech football jig guy up here in NY but def gonna order some of those Deps now

The Champ is here!! ✊ And I didn't see you drink Orion in this video. Great stuff Ben. Love the videos. 🎣👍

TNT baits are back !!! Best jig on the market for sure. Give them a look. You won’t be disappointed !!! Cheers from the California Delta

Ball head jig or small football jig with a cut senko on the back works good

Been really binging your videos since I first came across the channel a couple months ago. Jigs are absolutely my favorite bass lure, My main jig is a Dirty Jigs 5/8 oz finesse football (molting craw color) and a trimmed down Yamamoto cowboy (green pumpkin). I usually drag football jigs or fish them like a swing-head. If I think I need to stroke a jig, I usually fish a different style. Something I have been experimenting with lately is fishing like what northern anglers call "cracking" a tube. Basically I'm dragging it in faster pulses (mixing up how many times I do it before pausing), but trying to keep it on the bottom. Heavier jigs make this easier. This approach has given me great outcomes so far. I'm sure I'm not the only person doing this, but give it a try if you haven't before.

Dope video as always

I like to hand tie my own jigs. Live in Canada, so a good portion of the year everything's froze. So I usually tie jigs in the winter. Old school flat rubber is a killer on the smallies up here. I like buying dirty jigs then taking the skirt off and tying on my own. Can make it as bulky or slim as you want, any matching of colors and materials. Swim jigs with a mix of silicone and old school flat rubber are really good too.

Love the belt Jeff😂😂

I watched this video last year and thought you were nuts saying you had issues with the Keitech m2. I’ve dumped 3 good fish this last week using it now I’m back seeing what my alternatives are lol.

Damn I was laughing for real when Griff came around the corner with his belt! 😆

He’s proud of that belt 🏆

I love to throw me a football jig, even in the winter. In winter I use a mini D-bomb trailer and trim the skirt (with craw dad scent). In winter from the shore I managed to catch a few 4 and 5 pound LMB. Black and Blue or Pumpkin green. 🔥

My favorite is the Stanley standup fb hjigs, but the V&M flatline in 5/8 is quickly becoming my go to.

Great t-shirt idea...Front: A bite is nice Back: But ya gotta land the phuckers! 👍🍺🎣

Great tips video what your favorite Michigan smallmouth bait

Thanks guys for all the info. I love throwing jigs. My favorite jig is the bass patrol jig. Also what is your thoughts on the Slx reels and what budget rod would you suggest for it? I’m mainly a bank angler.

@erikbrodersen4718

3 жыл бұрын

SLX are great reels for the money. At the 100 dollar price point they’re unmatched. If you can afford the extra 30 bucks the xt has the infinity breaking which makes a world of difference. Best rod around that price point I think is a dobyns fury. The 734 model is a great do anything rod but makes an awesome jig rod

I know it's not a football jig but one of my favorite finesse jigs is the duo realis 3.5 gram v tail for spotted bass

Well you sold me on the Deps finesse jig now when will you have any in stock to buy??

I was surprised you didn’t mention the Braillist. Is that because you use 3/4oz? I fish up to 5/8 on that with 15# flouro but thinking of switching to braid/leader

Ben, how is the NRX+ 904c for the 1/2-3/4 jigs?

Jigs are one of the sleeper baits for muskie fishing. Is there a football head with a crazy strong hook out there?

What's the best all around weight for the fitness jig? Do you lighten it up?
