Great show guys! Seen it for the first time tonight. It really made me a believer about the effectiveness of jigs and even more so the pink worm. I will make fun of you and the pink worm no more RT. I have some cork floats like what you guys were using (they were fixed floats, with the little red pins that go into the cork, right?) and I got a lot of them maribou jigs, but you guys were all using schlappen jigs (right?). I've been trying these maribou ones from the store and they really don't hold up in the water. They're crap. Looks like I'll finally have to order some from First Cast.

Maybe some from Silent Approach/Rainbow while I'm at it.
I just have a couple questions for you guys. First, at what angle do you actually have the jig hanging when you cast? Straight down like a regular hook, or at a 90 degree angle to the line? Or does it matter? Probably does for that pink worm trick-so it stands straight up. Liked that idea. What pound test were you using with the jigs? Bigstew had on 8 (glad you didn't lose that dandy 13 pounder, Bigstew!)if I remember right, but what about the rest of you? Did you ever break off on snags using the float/jigs that day? Also, if you don't mind me asking, what kind of rods/reels were you using? Probably not all the same, but I wanna know what the pros are using.

Thank you.
This jig stuff is really starting to interest me. Might just become a hardcore jig angler someday.
