I've had good luck using airplane jigs tipped with dead shiner,smelt,etc..I usually keep it within 5 ft of bottom and give two or three pumps and then let it settle.Large perch,pickerel,walleyes,musky and trout have fallen for this tactic.Hope it works for you!

Paul I mostly caught my lakers on smelt-because this was the prevalent bait fish.I hooked the bait thru the mouth and out the top of the head.I jigged about 5 ft off bottom-using a slow pumping action.I would do this for maybe 10 seconds and let the jig settle.After maybe a minute or so I would repeat and it has worked for me!Good Luck, Doug

I had a strange occurance with airplane jigs. I was fishing for pike with a smaller sized airplane jig tipped with the back end of a minnow. I was trying to catch some smaller pike for dinner when instead I went went home with a bucket of slab crappies. I never heard of this before but thought it was interesting. The lake was called Specticle Lake and is in Minnesota if you want to know.

Had good luck in CO using sucker meat on airplane jigs. The lake had a no live bait reg., but the lake trout were O.K. with that. Did best by finding bottom, then a slow lift and drop. Most strikes came on the drop.(big surprise!)
