Thread: favorite yellow perch jig

what is your favorite yellow perch jig?

I've caught them on small chrome rat-l-traps and hairpin spinners with sliders.

Done pretty well with small tube jigs with a maggot. Red & White or Yellow and White seem to work.

Kastmasters work good on Lake Michigan.

this would have to be a"renosky" jig, orange crawdad. this jig had a large hook, and tipped with a piece of softshell was an absolute killer on lake michigan jumbos. caught many on the cubby mini-mite too.ND

on the open water: plastics - little tube jigs, paddle tails, twister tails from 1.5" to 2.5" w/ little special sauce on it

on the hard water: Northland Forage Minnow jig and fry w/ couple magots

live minnows work real good for me just hard to keep the line tied to minnow

Helgamites or Dobson work great in the Finger Lakes of New York State. I take the head off and slide it on an unpainted lead head.

I've done well with Tube type jigs,both the hollow bodys and those solid bodied Crappie Thunders.I rig them on regular round heads and the ponyheads and they both seem to catch them.

I fish a Berkley 4" motoroil worm alot in bass tx ,save the used worms and use about 2.5 " of the tail part of the worm on a 1/8 oz jig head . it's all I need to use lf their there they hit . caught 31 in 4 hr. tuesday
