Crappie Jigs

When you begin looking into crappie fishing, you may have noticed the wide range of bait available. While there is no substitution for live bait the most popular artificial bait is by far the crappie jig. Ther are literally thousands of varieties of jigs that are available for crappie fishing.

While some fisherman swear by a certain type, color, or size, but the smart fisherman's tackle box contains a variety. Each unique situation you find yourself in should warrant a different type of jig. Different Types of Jigs Bodies - The body of the jig comes in a variety of types including rubber, plastic, marabou, hair, rubber bands, floss, tinsel, chenille, and many other types of materials. Tails - curly tails, ripple tails, broad tails and triple tails Heads - lead heads, floating heads, diving heads and standing heads.

Colors - Red, blue, silver, pink, orange, white, green, and clear, just to name a few. If you have trouble picking out the types of Crappie jigs you want initially, there are many stores that will provide you with pre made kits that include varying colors, types, and sizes of Crappie jigs. This way you do not have to guess what is best. Once you use each type within the kit, you can then go back to the store and buy the specific types that worked the best for you. Advantages When Using Jigs Since each part of a jig is separate, you can add variety to your bait by using different color heads, with different colors bodies and tails. The number of different colors variations are almost endless.

Jigs also make it easy to change bait. Simply change the body on the jig head and you are finished. Another advantage is the fact that new bait does not have to be tied on each time you catch a fish.

This is especially important when you are trolling or using more then one pole at a time. Otherwise, you may find yourself in an overwhelming situation, having to mange poles in the water, reel in fish on these poles, and tie on new bait at the same time. Perhaps the biggest advantage: jigs never die. By a slight twitching or pulling motion, your jig will come alive with motion each and every time. You've just got to learn how to make your jig look "natural" in movement.

Simulating the natural movement of bait fish is how jigs are built, and you can enhance this by the "technique" you use to fish with them.
