We got a hot tip from a couple of fishin friends about a good dragging bite on the upper end of the lake early Saturday afternoon. Unfortunately, by the time we got there, the feeding window appeared to have been slammed shut.
1/8oz jigs dragged through 8-10' feet of water though some of the snaggiest dang rocks on the entire lake. Yup, we donated a few and spent quite a bit of time turning the boat around to get jigs out of snags. No idea why I didn't go straight for the "Draggin Jigs" from B'Fish'N Tackle right off the bat.
Sunday morning, we gave it another try. This time, the "Draggin Jigs" from B Fish N Tackle, Co. came out of the box. The bite was still slow but we did manage two decent fish. Jimmy caught a nice 24" spawned out female on a fathead minnow & I caught a skinny 23.5" male on a 1/8oz Draggin Jig tipped with a ringworm.
With the "Draggin Jigs" , we didn't have to turn around at all. We did get stuck every once in awhile, but found out quickly that by pulling straight & steady, they all popped out except for one. Sure saved a lot of time not having to turn the boat around to get jigs unsnagged.
I'm already thinking about using these jigs on a few of the jig eaten, lumber infested, sunken humps here on Lake Wisconsin. Places where I learned the hard way that if you put it down there, that's where it will stay!
Short report cuz other than that, I stunk it up this past weekend!
Sure hope we do better next weekend!
