Been out here a couple times but each time using some king of jig it would sink down and get hung up on a rock. So what should I use next time to last more than 20 minutes? Lure, setup, cast direction.. etc. Thanks Posted by Jesse_berger
nsyrg on April 18, 2026 2:34 am Curly tail grub/swimbait on a jighead, let it sink and slowly reel it in along the top of the rocks, id also try jerkbaits/crankbaits Edit: you may still get snagged but a jig and a soft plastic is much cheaper to lose
Siptro on April 18, 2026 2:41 am Swim bait/jig with a vertical lift/reel/drop so I’m not reeling in rocks. Lifting out them, then reel, then drop into another.
Joyful_Pursuit on April 18, 2026 3:01 am I would think something like a beetlespin or spinner bait that you can retrieve higher in the water column will stay out of the rocks well enough.

Slinky weight, carolina rig, zman swim bait.

Squarebill, football jig or Texas rig
