Glow Jig fishing

[JimmyZ]

Well I received my glow jigs from fishmansedge. They all look pretty cool. Glass with the glow in the middle. Kinda big I thought with #4 and # 6 hooks. The glass is kinda fat. The glass seems as big as a 1/4 jig head would. Went and gave them a try.

Started fishing about 1/2 hr. before sunrise, pretty dark still. First fish came pretty fast. I was using chartruese. I never had a crappie take a jig/bait so far in it's mouth. I couldn't believe how hard those fish where inhailing this thing. I had to use needlenose quite a few times to get hook out. All the fish I caught before sunrise had the whole thing over half way down their throat.

I'm still kinda new to crappie fishing. I never have had crappie take a bait/jig so far in it's mouth. Once the sun came up I continued to use it and the fish still took it good. I was using minnows and it seemed when it was light out I still had good hook sets, with very few fish hooked in the soft tissue of their mouths. But you could tell when it was light out the fish where keying in more on the minnow than the glow.

I landed 22 in all. I was pretty impressed with the way they worked. I'm going to try a different spot tomorrow and am going to try fishing in the dark a little more. Bait shops don't open till 5am though.
