Pool 4 Sloughs at Pepin (WI)

LipRipper_MN reported catching Smallmouth Bass using the Football Jigs technique and Seaguar InvizX 100% Fluorocarbon on Pool 4 Sloughs at Pepin. Additional comments from this report: "Caught so many fish, and the biggest fish of the day on the swing head. Downsize the soft plastic to get more bites, fish along any rock, or transition areas like a crankbait, making constant contact with the bottom. "

$21.99 – $138.99

Reported by

Bde Maka Ska (MN)

larrymarketreels reported catching Largemouth Bass using the Football Jigs technique and Sunline Super FC Sniper on Bde Maka Ska. Additional comments from this report: "1/2oz Swinghead Jig with Xzone 4.25" Adrenaline Craw triggered several bites in a 14' grass patch. Make a long cast, let it hit bottom, and straight retrieve it slowly making sure to maintain bottom contact. When it would catch on the grass, I didn't use my rod to pop it free. Instead I just kept pressure on the reel handle until it pulled out from the snag, which seemed to really trigger the bites. "

Damien Luchterhand

Serpent Lake (MN)

Damien Luchterhand reported catching Smallmouth Bass using the Football Jigs technique and Sunline Super FC Sniper on Serpent Lake. Additional comments from this report: "Fish were on small main lake points with a grass to weed transition. Dragging a football jig caught fish and I was able to clean up a couple extra bites with a neko rig. Both smallies and largies "

Reported by
Mac

Table Rock Lake (AR, MO)

Drag heavier football jigs across rock points, usually you can pull up on a point and catch a couple fairly quick. Keep hopping points if the first few didn't work, don't spend too much time in one area. Good time of year to catch a 5 fish limit of 12-15 lbs

Seaguar Red Label 100% Fluorocarbon

$15.79 – $83.99

Reported by
Bubby

Table Rock Lake (AR, MO)

Reported by
Timothy Skinnell

Smith Mountain Lake (VA)

Timothy Skinnell reported catching Largemouth Bass using the Football Jigs technique and Seaguar Red Label 100% Fluorocarbon on Smith Mountain Lake. Additional comments from this report: "Cought multiple fish on deep docks with a jig letting the jig soak 5 to 10 seconds before moving it look for docks on secondary points an main lake points an close to deep water access try to focus on docks with wood pilings seemed to work very well since there was no wind on the lake"

Reported by
Luke Loewe

Lake Minnewashta (MN)

I caught around 15 bass with the biggest being almost 5 pounds all on football jigs on deep weed lines. A couple came on a Rapala DT-16 right over the tops of the weeds. I used my Livescope to locate the large schools of panfish that the bass were hanging around and would trow the football jig into those schools. Once it sunk below them into the weeds I would rip the jig out of the weeds to create reaction bites. The bass were schooled up and where I would catch one, most of the time there were more with it that I could see on livescope.
