SWINGING JIGS – The BEST Way To Catch EARLY SUMMER Bass!
This is the EASIEST way to catch a big bass during the transition to Summer! The Swing head jig is often overlooked but should be at the top of every angler's list! This technique is easy to master, requires no new gear, and works all over the country! Forget your old patterns, pick up a swing head jig and start catching fish!
Anyone can catch fish with this technique! Pair a kicking trailer (of course we have our favorites, and for good reason), to a swinging jig head. Swim it along the bottom and the bait will bump along, deflecting off cover, drawing reaction strikes from the bass. While this technique can be done with swimbaits, worms, and other soft plastics, our best results have consistently come with creature baits.
Below you'll find links to the exact baits we use for this technique, as well as the heads and gear we use to fish them. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
