Here in CT, I mainly jig for Bluegill, Yellow Perch and Crappie. I am fortunate to have local waters that produce quality gills, yellow perch and crappie. By accident, I occasionally catch a trout, largemouth, smallmouth, walleye, pickerel or catfish.

What species is your favorite to jig for and why?

I jig for bluegill most of the time, but also crappie and perch, because they are plentiful and school together very tightly.

Jig for perch mostly...but last caught some big ol bass when jigging for perch. They went back down the hole though as they weren't in season...

I jig for anything. In fact, I caught a 16" sucker last week while jigging for smelts and salmon.

I try for whatever is down there.

Sometimes the fish comply, sometimes they say "screw you!".

Walleye, Perch, and mix it up with the occasional Laker trip.

Perch, gills and crappie for me, but always willing to expand my horizons.
