HOW TO catch Big Large Mouth Bass on a jig

Coral Springs, Largemouth Bass caught on a jig!





Large Mouth Bass are the most sought after freshwater fish in American History and it isnt easy catching that BIG FISH that you always dreamed of but hopefully I can give you guys some tips to hook up to a Hog large mouth. This fish can be caught anytime of the year in nearly every state in America. The world record was caught in Georgia in 1932 but rumor has it that other world records were caught since then but was not properly recorded. 


This was a world record caught by George Perry in 1932 in Montgomery, Georgia. I gave it a visit at Slims Fish Camp in Belle Glades, Florida to see the specimen in real life and it was unbelievable that a fish this big would wold even exist. 

Even got some footage of it too.


Heres a website with the fish recorded as a world record

HOW TO USE A JIG FOR BIG LARGE MOUTH BASS(BLACK BASS)

  • First of you need to buy a decent freshwater jig, just so happens that I make my own but anything similar to this will do.this is about a 1/8th ounce custom jig.  
  • How you fish a jig is very important to catching that monster bass. Bouncing your jig from top to bottom in anybody of water is a great way to trigger a strike. Bass are ambush predators and like to sit and wait for there prey but will occasionally pursue bait fish. %75 of the time while using this method the bass will strike while your jig is descending back to the lake floor.
  • This method(jigging) is the most effect way to catch Large Mouth Bass in my opinion. You should be using fishing that is strong enough but yet lite enough to cast a small jig. 6-12 pound test is ideal for this scenario.


Here is a video of me catching a bass on a really small custom jig I made a while back.

Sort:  

crazy how you get those fatties on such little jigs, how do you cast them out so far?

Lite tackle. Alot of times while searching for crappie on a 6 pound test and a jig pole I hook up to huge bass.

Great post man. Now that's my type of hog hunting! I'm new on here and love to fish. I'll keep viewing your Bass journey. Fish on!
