Default This swim jig stuff is just too easy. You gotta see this.

First of all yes I realize just how terrible this picture is but I am not trying to show a picture of the fish, or really even the jig for that matter. Dad and I went to a pond tonight and I caught a ton of fish on a swim jig but this one is one for the books. Not because he is big, he is only a big fish in bamabassmans book lol. What is so cool about it is that I never got a hook in the fish. If you look close you can see that I actually stuck him on the wire trailer keeper. I don't know what the odds of that are but I know I have never seen that before.

That is just crazy, don't think I have ever seen anything quite like that before. So Kory, you about ready to start pouring your own swimjigs.

Being as new to swim jigs as I am I honestly need to try a few different ones out so I can decide what I want in a swim jig before I think about pouring my own. It is something I might do down the road though. Right now I love the Strike King Tour Grade swim jig, I am going to try the Omega swim jig next as well as the Bass Assault swim jig too.

That's what I thought man. It took me a minute to realize what happened when I landed it too.

Photoshop all the way!!! How dare you! hahahaha - That is pretty awesome. I guess we need a thread on making sure the keeper's are sharp now.

Wow, that is crazy that you stuck him with the trailer keeper. I have seen fish that were not hooked on a crankbait before, they just had the bait wedged in their mouth and couldn't let go!

I really don't know. My trailer was worn out from catching several fish so the trailer keeper wasn't staying in the trailer very well. So I know how the wire was exposed in the first place but I still don't know how he got hooked on it.

In your quest for swim jigs, you might want to look at the eakins swim jigs with a boat hull design. The bass assault jigs are nice, I know Tony really likes them. I really like my jigs from all terrain tackle, they have the best prices.

I'll put my vote out there for Brovarney swim jigs. Awesome, hand tied, hand painted jigs.

Thanks Kevin I forgot all about the Eakins swim jig. I will probably check them out before long too.

Joe I couldn't remember the name of the company that made the swim jigs you mentioned on here before. I will check them out too. I ordered several Omega swim jigs lastnight, I haven't used them before but from what research I did on them they look like a solid jig.
