Swimming Jigs for Bass

Swimming a jig is a technique that was made popular by some of the top bass fisherman on the Upper Mississippi River, but its impact has stretched across the nation!  Top anglers from Canada all the way down to Florida and Texas rely on this technique and lure to put bass in their boats all year long.

Up until this year, I have just used the RC Tackle Swim Jig for shallow water on the Mississippi River, but this year fishing the lakes in Minnesota I refined this technique to deeper water.  By using a bigger 3/8 oz. jig, compared to my normal 1/4 oz. jig and varying retrieves helped make this a successful tactic for me this season.

Instead of me writing more about this lure and technique, I urge you to take a look at this video that takes a look at the jig and technique!!
