OK guy I was told by a coworker today who is the biggest fisherman that I know that jigging isn't so much about the up and down motion as it is about getting the attention of the fish with any movement. He recommended acting like you are flicking a cigarette but just on the side of the rod. What do you guys think of this as a strategy?
A lot of times when you get chasers and lookers, is because the lure ends up spinning. When panfish aren't aggressive, they end up turned off by a spinning lure.
