Pig and jig

[Pikemaster101]

i like to fish a small 90 acre lake it has a lot of bass and northerns in it and i was wondering if it would work to pig and jig on this lake because i can not seem to find the bass this year and i thought maby they were deep any coments would be great.

Thanks

PM101, The p/g combo can be used almost anytime. If the bass are not taking it try something a little different like a Texas rigged worm or lizard. The other option might be going weightless with a fluke or senko. Or timing might be an issue also get out early or late and try some top water. Have fun.

If your planning on trying deep such as weedline fishing I'd opt go with a plastic worm and jighead as light as the wind and cover dictates.I prefer the jig n pig in heavy cover less than 6ft.

A good method to use is to drift along the deep weed edge or deeper drop-offs and use deeper diving rapalas. My favorite was a deep diving shad rap but there are hundreds or baits out there for it. A few times this method really worked and ended up catching many 2-4 lb bass this way. On calm days near dark using a topwater bait, my favorite being a torpedo can work great. Otherwise my buddy's favorite on smaller lakes where the bass weren't as easy to find during the day was using those slug-go type baits. Working around the jerk bait plastics casting into the weeds or near it and just working it off the drop-off. Or using the plastic jerk baits even over deep water if your seeing minnows or anything else surfacing over deeper water.
