SealBilly, I don't mind explaining, but rather than me doing that I think you would be better off going to Youtube and typing in Kits Tackle. I buy my jigs from them and they have quite a few videos including one on how to specifically fish jigs for trout.
Creeker, good eye. Are you a fellow Montanan?
Thanks and as usual great pics.
edited to add I watched the video on youtube, that's how we fish for samllmouth in the winter on reservoirs . We don't have trout in lakes around here so I was completely wrong about how I thought you fished jigs for trout, I was thinking moving water.
