Swim jigs come in a variety of weights and colors. This allows the angler to “match the hatch,” or to match the forage that is in a specific lake on which a bass is normally feeding anyway. The different weights allow the angler to fish shallower or deeper more easily. (Photo by Beckie Gaskill/Lakeland Times)

Tie on a swim jig to catch more bass

It has been said that nearly anyone can catch a bass on a swim jig. When the bite is hot, and the fish are active, that is likely true. But the same could be said about a number of baits. But a swim jig does make a great search bait, allowing an angler to find those high percentage places more quickly.
