    Default Pushing and Pulling Jigs???


    I have a small boat and usually fish alone. I find that when I am trolling crankbaits for crappie it is easier for me to pull two baits and push two at the same time. It's easier to keep baits from tangling. I was wondering if anyone ever does this with jigs when pulling jigs. I think it might be easier to push two on a shorter rod with heavy weights and to pull two at the same time using my PST rods. I think it would be easier to control than trying to pull four jigs at once. Anyone tried this?
    Thanks dad for teaching me to love crappie fishing!!

    I say do whatever works.Thumbs Up As long as you can get the jigs in the fishes faces they'll bite 'em.

    I pull 4 sometimes but mostly 3. I never push crankbaits, if I snag grass pushing I risk snapping the pole or getting in a fix real quick. I do pull from the front of the boat 2 8' poles one out each side and I generally hold on to a 5' pole. Plus it wears my neck out looking at poles all over. I do pull 4 sometimes but only in deep water with long runs and big turns. Just hunting when nothing seems to be biting.
