Fireball jigs have a time and a place.
The time is anytime you care to use them!
I have a friend who has one on his favorite pole, and it never gets taken off.
He loves 'em for perch and crappies. I have tried them a couple of times, mostly when he has been catching fish and I haven't.
Not my first choice, but they do work.
Hope this helps,
Wiener
