Swim Jig Fishing! All The Tricks No One Is Talking About!

How's your swim jig game? Are you missing the boat on this incredible technique?? A lot of people are! Most anglers don't realize that a swim jig imitates small baitfish and panfish better than a swimbait! Here's everything you need to know... 

Swim jigs come in all sorts of shapes and sizes and they're not created equal. Understanding head shapes and hook strengths is just as important as understanding the difference between a squarebill and a deep diving crankbait. Pay close attention as Matt details his jig and trailer pairings so you can use the best combination for your fishing conditions. 

Below you'll find links to the exact jigs, trailers, and gear that Matt discussed in the video. He's even included his favorite weights and colors for each. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

The chatterbait is incredibly versatile once you learn to adapt your trailers and retrieves. We use 4 main trailers paired to 4 different chatterbaits to meet every situation we face.
