| Jigging Spoons are not as popular as they should be. They are a great bait for catching good-sized fish. Anything from panfish to bass to huge saltwater fish will eat a jigging spoon. They are great baits for deep water fishing. How To Use Jigging Spoons Jigging spoons are most commonly used in deep water situations. Most anglers vertically jig these baits. Drop this bait down to the bottom and then jig up about a foot off the bottom, then let the bait fall down again. Vary your depths until you get a strike. For suspended fish, count your lure down until you think you are at the right depth. Where To Use Jigging Spoons The most common depths are between 18 and 40 feet, but some anglers do fish them shallower while others fish them in 100 feet of water for lake trout. Types of Fish Caught on Jigging Spoons Panfish, bass, crappie, pike, trout, salmon and pretty much anything that eats other fish. Problems With Using Jigging Spoons Anglers don't have too many problems using jigging spoons. They are an easy bait to fish. Just make sure to really jerk it up hard, then let the bait flutter back down to the bottom. This is when you will get most strikes. Don't forget to use the countdown method for varying your depths. The fish might be suspended and a 10 count is all you need. On other days, a 25 count might be needed to get down to 25 to 30 feet of water. |
