Candy Jig Fishing
Message:
Fish caught were as small as dinks up to 4+lbs. 25 total in 6 hours.
Original intention was Bantam. Weather reports predicted strong thunder storms sometime in the afternoon so with Candy closer we headed there. On the water at 7am. Hit North Danbury Bay and start top water'ing. Blow up's but no hook ups. So we head directly into Danbury Bay.
After all the bickering in the other thread about Whacky Rigging Senkos we decide to throw a few jigs. In 10 casts the first fish comes in.

Then we proceed to catch 10 more. Holy MothB's these things work. (8 to 12 FOW)Then my partner yells "Get The Net get The Net" I yell back Get The Fire Extinguisher Get The Fire Extinguisher" he yells back What Holy Chit "REALLY" . The trolling motor foot control is a "Flame Thrower" Major short circuit. White and Grey Smoke Sparks Flames that look like a 57 Chevy with headers. I disconnect it while he's watching me and landing a 4lb Large Mouth at the same time! Total confusion!!!! Fire Extinguisher or Net! Crisis over and not wanting to ruin a great day fishing we proceed to fish by motoring down wind and letting the wind push us.
I'm figuring it was the Whacky Voodoo stuff that jinxed me so I switch back to Whacky Rigging. Very first cast I catch this

Next cast I catch this

So now I'm thinking I really pissed someone off. So we motored from spot to spot and caught alot more fish using Jigs and Senkos.
Over all excellent day with 25 fish (Large and Small Mouth Mix.) Lost almost just as many on poor hook sets.
I'm now a believer in Jigs. But I'll still use my Whacky and Top Water Rigs.
