    Default Okay theorist...why can you..


    put a minnow on a long shank crappie hook with all that hook showing and catch a fish....but if you let your jig body slide back just a little bit from the head they won't hardly bite it....huh....what about that LOL

    I don't have a clue, however Jigflip has the best theory IMHO! It's the wiggle.

    I've found the same thing with my minnow design: just a slight curve in the body when rigged on a jig and no go/ same when it slides down. I wonder if fish are tuned in to the body of some soft plastics being straight regardless of whether the jig hook is too long or very short (both will still catch fish so it's not the hook size).

    It's cuz the fish see that purdy-lookin minner you got settin there for em and they know you gonna feed them good.

    They see that poor jig with its drawers yanked down and they don't know what you fixin to do to em. It just ain't worth the risk!
