Ive not tried this but I certainly intend doing so.
I don't feel I have quite (the touch) with jigs as others do that ive fished with.
I think some just naturally have it better than others, and this method might help.
Ive been told also that jigs will always out fish minnows, to the point of never having them on the boat.
But ive found thats not always true in my case, so ill try this with those also.
