I created this video to break down jig styles into manageable pieces of information that will help you narrow your search so you can find the perfect jig for the job at hand.

  • I agree 100% with what was shared in this video. This presentation is one of the very best synopsis’ on jig qualities and applications produced. (particularly for the novice to using jigs). Couple items to add: In finesse, neutral to negative fish moods, most always try to use the lightest weight jig you can get by with; the reason being that it gives the walleyes just a bit more time to see the bait, but most importantly the lighter the jig the easier the fish has to “inhale” and get it into their mouth. Secondly, shortly after Northland Tackle introduced the Titanium Weed Guard Stand Up Jig a couple of years ago, I was at the factory in Bemidji and got to talking about that jig with a couple of pro-staffers. My suggestion to them was to offer that jig in “gold”. Their response was: “For sure, but you know what?” “Draw a line south of Brainerd, and few people know of the qualities of gold on catching walleyes”. We all agreed: “Seriously ??? !!!!” So a tip to everyone whom reads this: Use GOLD !!!!. Again, a great video this was.

    This is arguably the best jig-head tutorial on YouTube. And that's saying a lot due to the vast amount of videos I watch on jig fishing and walleye presentations. There is no question that your teaching methods and calm but concise explanations are largely responsible for the lion's share of your subscriptions. I'm legitimately astounded that your channel does not have ten times the subs that it does right now. I'm rarely motivated to even sign in, let alone comment on videos such as this. I sub'd and I'm looking forward to binging on more of your content. Thanks for taking the time to share your experiences.

    This is an outstanding fishing channel. For example, this video is an excellent jig tutorial. I enjoy the attention to detail and thorough content provided about the topics covered in your videos. I'm very surprised you don't have at least 100k subscribers. I live in the midwest and this channel has become my favorite fishing channel. I hope you continue the superb work you are doing with this channel. Thank you and best wishes for continued success.
  • Ive been fishing all my life 29 Y/O and never knew alot of this. Great vid dude!
  • How does this guy have less than 10k subscribers? Caleb your vids share so much useful info. Thanks for great content.
  • @redbet7six
    Very detailed and informative - can't wait to get out there with this new knowledge. Thanks for sharing, great vid!
  • Great video. It was great to see a complete breakdown of jigs and showing the examples of the jigs in water.
  • @morrisonlamb2121
    Now this is the type of informative video I have been looking for. Thank you for taking the time and sharing your knowledge.
  • @n8ter292
    Wow so much information shared!!! Thank you 🙏🏽
  • @Woodstock271
    Wow. Great action presentation video! Great explanations on all the details as well. Walleye was always a dream-fish to catch and eat but I never caught one as a kid in Wisconsin. We use lots of jigs in Hawaii in the saltwater and the things you explain here as far as action, color, hook-gap, etc., definitely apply anywhere you’re trying to fool a fish in the water, no matter where you are in the world. Fish brains are pretty much the same. Conditions are different but changing with them is the key. Great video as usual! 🤙🏼
  • After surfing through videos for 3 hours, this vid gave me everything I needed to know about jigs. This video alone covered everything 6 other separate videos missed or just didn’t explain very well. Beautiful job on the tutorial, would have saved me 3 hours if I found it earlier lol
  • @waikarimoana

  • @HenryD-ou4dk
    Great video. Thanks for all the detailed info you won’t find elsewhere!
  • @jiggyquinn5635
    For a seemingly simple topic this had information one may know but not focus on. Thank you for sharing 😊
  • Dude thanks you so much. Extremely knowledgeable and very well spoken. Amazed this doesn't have a million views
  • Thank you for that. Been fishing for years and never knew 3/4 of this information, which will be beneficial where I fish. 🐟
  • You, good Sir, are so helpful. I will be hitting the river with my kayak and a small arsenal of jigs tomorrow and your tips. Many thanks to you.
