So, he made a short video of the fish’s measurements, and slipped it back into the water."

The Jig Is Up | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC

The Jig Is Up | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC: "One of my favorite patterns is fishing laydowns over or near drop-offs.

Its compact size, coupled with a brush guard, allows me to easily work it around the branches and trunks... searching out the big ones!"

Working Deep Cranks | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC

Working Deep Cranks | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC: "If you are going to fish deeper water for bass, folks often will think of using a weighted soft plastic like a worm, lizard or jig. However the same major advantage that a crankbait has in working shallow-water bass applies to deeper water areas. This of course is the ability to cover greater areas of water in a given period of time. The speed of covering given types of cover, and depths allow you the critical advantage of working through variables which enable you to establish a reproducible pattern."
