misfish Posted December 10, 2006 Report Share Posted December 10, 2006 Ron the bug rules out here on Simcoe.Thanks for posting again. If I may add,theres an old fella named George here in Barrie ,that made the bug famous.He still makes them at the age of 78 or something like that.

setomonkey Posted December 10, 2006 Report Share Posted December 10, 2006 Thanks for posting this. Neat jig, what species is it used for, and how do you fish it? Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Posted December 11, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 11, 2006 These are mainly for Perch on Simcoe, however I have used them for Crappie as well. Drop em to the bottom, raise a foot and start erratic jigging. Sometimes raise quickly a couple of feet and pause... Just like any other type of pattern, you have to experiment.

huntervasili Posted December 11, 2006 Report Share Posted December 11, 2006 Thanks for the post... might just have to tie a few of these guys up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fisherman Posted December 11, 2006 Report Share Posted December 11, 2006 Like Ron said, lower to bottom, jiggle an inch up, wait a second, jiggle another inch up, etc, after 10-12 inches lower back down. It was a real frustrating time getting the hang of it, but they do work once you have the twitch mastered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
