Swimming a Jig For Big Bass

Tacticalbassin became a reality because of this one simple topic. The swim jig is one of my favorite techniques for putting big bass in the boat. Over the last few years I have been reading about how, when, and where to swim a jig. The final conclusion was that if anyone knew how to do it right they sure weren’t talking about it online! Kirk and I began discussing the idea of creating a website where TRUTH could be presented and you, the fisherman, could decide what to do with it. To that end, I present 8 minutes on how I believe a swim jig should be fished.

I know I am inviting criticism by taking such a bold stand about this topic but the fact is, I think I have a better way of swimming a jig than the majority of the bass fishing population. Its worked for me and those I fish with and has produced bags of fish that others only dream about. Do you have an opinion on this topic? I’d love to hear it!

Mounting a tripod on a boat

The popularity of capturing your catches on video is on the rise. We at tacticalbassin would love to show your videos here on the site as well. The only way you can do that is if you are able to film quality content so here is a video about what we have done to stabilize our cameras for filming on bass boats.

Have you found a simpler way to mount a tripod? Let me know!

Introduction to Jig Styles

Due to overwhelming feedback in the past week we have decided to do a series on fishing jigs in a variety of conditions. This will be the first of quite a few videos and should serve as a reference as we talk about a variety of applications in the near future.

Pitchin' Jigs

Catching big bass is one of my passions in life. Most West Coast fisherman look to the swimbait for big bass but in truth, many of mine come on the jig. Day in and day out you can’t beat a properly presented jig.
Throughout my years of jig fishing I have fine tuned my techniques to what I would like to consider an art. I truly believe that paying attention to a few key details is the difference between catching jig fish and catching BIG jig fish on a CONSISTANT basis!

This video is the beginning of a series on fishing jigs in a variety of conditions. Please provide feedback on any jig related questions you have so that I can cover them in future videos.
