Here's a old pick of some of the tubes we use, of course they're all mounted on Nightprowler's weedless jig heads. I prefer the #2 hooks on the left.


In a way I hate to say what lure works because conditions and the fish change quickly and anything can or can't work at any given time. We usually have 3 or 4 rods rigged at the same time and we switch baits or tactics often.
The inside of my has more jigs and bodies than most full service tackle stores so I'm ready to switch.

Brian, I forgot about those skip jack. They were like mini tarpon. Pretty cool.
Here's one of EF slabs green carp from Ky Lake last year

How do You get nightprowlers jigs? I tried to send Him a message & it said His mail box was full!

Haven't seen him on here in a while. PM is how i've contacted him in the past.

Going down to Ky lake middle of April. Anybody can tell me a good area to go ,have been told to go down to Paris Landing/Leatherneck marina area, any other ideas?

I don't think there is anything bad on Ky Lake. I fished it from the Tn line on North to the damn over the years. We've caught fish everywhere.
Do you have reservations? It's going to book up pretty soon.

We are going to Kentucky Lake first of April & was wanting jigs before then! Thanks anyway.

Nightprowler makes a quality product, but so do many other members on this site. GrouseFly, RonDon, and Litewirehooker all make really good jigs that I've used.

Yep, I've gotten alot from grousefly. Only problem is he takes a LOOOONNNGGGG time to make them and deliver. I've ordered three times from him, never less than a thousand, and it's always been at least 12 weeks. Good product, but you gotta be patient. If you do order, make sure you understand the ETA.

I've got Nightprowlers phone, PM me and I'll get it to you.
