A jig is a jig is a jig, right? Wrong! I was one of "those people"
for a long time, but I am no longer a believer in that statement.
I've known about T.H.E. Jig for a year or two now, but until this
March I never pulled the trigger on purchasing them. I figured,
what's the difference? The difference is HUGE! Quality for one.

| minnows in the bucket. That brings me to my third point, T.H.E. Jig is deadly "meatless." There are situations, mainly when fishing them for Walleyes (T.H.E. Jig is more than a panfish jig!), where I will tip them with a minnow. I may also throw a little extra on them when the fish are more agressive simply to try and avoid the smaller fish and stick them Slab Crappies and Frisbee Sunfish. The last point I would like to touch on is color. There are many color options available on T.H.E. Jig. Chartruse, blue, purple, red, pink, orange, black, brown, and white. So which colors should you choose? That all depends on the lakes water clarity where you are fishing. For stained water, look to blue, orange, yellow, and red. |
In clear water, try combinations with white and black. There are many
combinations that work in both, the key is to have a variety to see what the
best color combinations are for that particular day or situation. Three of
my personal favorites have become the blue/chartreuse, pink/white, and
black/red. Orange/yellow and Orange/blue are great as well. I could go on
and on, the key is finding those colors for the current bite, which is why
variety is so important. I hope I've touched on everything I've meant to,
these jigs have become a main stay in my tackle box, and will continue to
be found tied to the end of my line for a long time to come!

product for 100 fish. I can say with certainty, aside from getting them snagged on structure, or losing them to
toothy critters, T.H.E. Jig will far outlast this 100 fish guarantee. The paint may become chipped, or completely
disappear after time, but as long as that hair is there, the fish will bite. One way to avoid damage to the paint is
to leave that needle nose in your tackle box when unhooking the fish, unless it is absolutely neccessary. In most
situations you will be able to "pop and twist" T.H.E. Jig out of the fish's mouth with your finger. This may take
a little work to get used to, but is easily done when you get the hang of it. Second is size. T.H.E. Jig comes in
four sizes, 32nd oz., 64th oz., 80th oz., and 100th oz. Size is a crucial part of fishing in many situations. Early in
the spring, cold weather, and high pressure situations is when T.H.E. Jig truely shines. While most people are
struggling to get into them, T.H.E. Jig will keep you setting the hook on those finicky fish. I've had numerous
times this spring where boats have trolled over to ask me what I'm using. I'm using T.H.E. Jig and keeping the
