Mid-November Bass Fishing in Indiana (Techniques)

[Pup]

This is a nice article with a video demonstrating a couple of techniques to catch bass in environmental conditions found in Indiana during November. It includes jerkbaits, so it isn't exclusive to jig fishing. Hence, the more you know, the better your chances for successful fishing.

Mid November Bassing: Finesse Jigs and Jerkbaits (Big Indiana Bass)

I love the video, I am a jerkbait fanatic and this time of year I have a casting rod with a jerkbait on and a medium light spinning rod with a hair jig on. I wasn't expecting him to get bit working the jig that fast but the water was 47 degrees so it wasn't out of reason. I like the little chunk trailer too, I never use them on small hair jigs, I usually go without one or either a 3" trout worm or the back end of a straight tail finesse worm, so now I have something else to try, thanks for posting the link.

Thanks for your comments Guys.

SJ,

In addition to his 1/8-oz. assortment of hair jigs, Brian (the fisherman in the video) has been using very small (1/16 ounce) hair jigs for at least 2 years now. I find it interesting that he likes to cast a black over chartreuse color pattern tipped with a chunk trailer quite frequently.

Thanks for posting the link, enjoyed watching it. I catch a lot of bass while crappie fishing with a 1/16 jig.

LedHed,

I wasn't involved with the video. Had I been, maybe we could have shot a JigCraft decal or, at least, my hat.
