Swim Jig Tricks For Bass! Everything You Need To Know! (Beginner To Advanced)

These are the swim Jig tricks you really need! Swimming a jig is an incredible technique that you should be taking advantage of. Swim jigs imitate panfish and shad better than traditional swimbaits and when you understand how to really use them, they become an irreplaceable part of your arsenal!

Swim jigs come in all shapes and sizes and they're not created equal. Understanding trailer actions and hook strengths is just as important as understanding the difference between a chatterbait and a spinnerbait. Pay close attention as Matt details his jig and trailer pairings so you can use the best combination for your fishing conditions.

Below you'll find links to the exact jigs, trailers, and gear Matt discussed in the video. He's even included his favorite weights and colors for each. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
