What do I need to add to my "pocket pack"?
« on: Dec 30, 2009, 10:35 PM »
I've been organizing my jigs due to the new arrival of a waterproof fly box to be used as a pocket pack. I'm going to keep a few of my best jigs in this pack and leave the rest tucked away in the frabill.

Can you guys think of anything that I need to add? I got 2 spot, single spot, demon, rockers, genz worms, a couple tear drops, neon bobber fry, ratfinkee, and some frostee jigging spoons.

I also like Bro's Bugs and Gill Pills as well.  Never go out without them.

A few snap swivels...sometimes quick lure changes to figure out what the fish will want is essential before you do the direct tie on lure of the day.

I didn't see any Lunar Grubs by JB Lures.  They are nothing fancy, but over the last few years, they have been my most productive jig for gills and seeds.  My favorite is the red glow.  I use the smallest ones for the light biters, and they are much smaller than, say, a Genz Worm.  With the offset hook (the jig is curved like a shrimp), I don't miss many hooksets, either.

Here is a link:

Ebay.

I have gill pills and diamonds in the big box, I never have very good luck with them.

I have never used a hali or pimple, cant say I've heard of anyone using them around here.

You may want to consider some Fiska horizontal jigs (comparable to Marmooskas).... 3 and 4 mm for the Gills and 3, 4, and 5 mm for the Crappies.
