[QUOTE="Allen Gamble, post: 257274, member: 4956"] Jig fishing is by far my favorite type of fishing. ML rod with a sensitive tip, 6' or 6'3" two piece is what I prefer with braid straight to the jig or a fluoro leader. I'll try every type of retrieve possible.... A slow swim just off the bottom, pop and stop, a popping cadence/dance, or a slow rise/fall combination. Most times when i'm doing an aggressive pop and stop walleye and smallies will swallow it in the fall. Like most have said, watch your line closely and keep tension. If it's windy when I'm pitching I'm to the point of daydreaming as I focus on the feeling of my rod so closely. It's very therapeutic for me. [/QUOTE]
