Thanks to your tips Scott I was able to catch my PB yesterday of 9 pounds 2 ounces. I love your straight to the point, no nonsense approach of explaining a technique. A 1/2 ounce Strike King tour grade football jig in Candy craw color with a Berkeley maxscent meaty chunk in green pumpkin seems to be the ticket in my clear water reservoir. I used to hop a jig and pig off the bottom and fish too fast. Never caught many fish that way. With the slow drag approach that you recommend I have become successful. Keep up the fantastic work!

Ive been having a lot of trouble getting all of my lures to sink recently. I use Berkeley Vanish 100% fluorocarbon 12lb. My lake averages 8-12ft deep some spots getting 20-28ft. Both depths Im having trouble getting lures to sink. Do I need a heavier line weight? Could it be that Im using a cheap brand of fluorocarbon?

You're awesome! I'm doing a biography on you for a school project. We could write anything we want and I picked to write about you solely because of all of the quality information that you give everyone. Also because you're pretty much my number 1, 2 and 3 fishing Idol. You're awesome!

I see you had a plastic crawdad tied on one of your rods, and your rod you were using in the video had a football jig with a plastic crawdad on. Whats the difference between a normal plastic crawfish and a plastic crawfish rigged on the back of a jig? Great Video,

What lake is that? I noticed you did your double fluke rig video there too. Also, Is a football jig useful in florida? All the lakes i fish have tons of grass and muddy bottoms. I struggle to find hard bottoms here

Scott, awesome video thank you for sharing that. I had no idea this was how you were supposed to use this jig. Looking forward to seeing footage with the new green hat you won off bass on SMC.
