PunchFishing
Chisago Lake (MN)
PunchFishing reported catching Largemouth Bass using the Football Jigs technique and Seaguar InvizX 100% Fluorocarbon on Chisago Lake. Additional comments from this report: "Largemouth could be found feeding around offshore hard bottom areas. The areas with the biggest fish had some kind of rock or gravel present Areas near grass seem to do well also. Dragging a half ounce of ball jig through these areas very slowly got some quality bites. "

Found multiple schools of largemouth on rocks in about 12-15 feet of water. Bluegill colored football jigs were the best baits.
Sunline Super FC Sniper
$21.99 – $138.99

Bde Maka Ska (MN)
larrymarketreels reported catching Largemouth Bass using the Football Jigs technique and Sunline Super FC Sniper on Bde Maka Ska. Additional comments from this report: "1/2oz Swinghead Jig with Xzone 4.25" Adrenaline Craw triggered several bites in a 14' grass patch. Make a long cast, let it hit bottom, and straight retrieve it slowly making sure to maintain bottom contact. When it would catch on the grass, I didn't use my rod to pop it free. Instead I just kept pressure on the reel handle until it pulled out from the snag, which seemed to really trigger the bites. "

Timothy Skinnell reported catching Largemouth Bass using the Football Jigs technique and Seaguar Red Label 100% Fluorocarbon on Smith Mountain Lake. Additional comments from this report: "Cought multiple fish on deep docks with a jig letting the jig soak 5 to 10 seconds before moving it look for docks on secondary points an main lake points an close to deep water access try to focus on docks with wood pilings seemed to work very well since there was no wind on the lake"
Reported by
Luke Loewe
Lake Minnewashta (MN)
I caught around 15 bass with the biggest being almost 5 pounds all on football jigs on deep weed lines. A couple came on a Rapala DT-16 right over the tops of the weeds. I used my Livescope to locate the large schools of panfish that the bass were hanging around and would trow the football jig into those schools. Once it sunk below them into the weeds I would rip the jig out of the weeds to create reaction bites. The bass were schooled up and where I would catch one, most of the time there were more with it that I could see on livescope.
