    Default What size, style and color jig heads do you use in the Bays?

    I have been fishing Newport Bay for years and alot of people I know ask what size,color and style jig heads I use.

    I was just courious what everyone here uses when they fish the bay?

    Here is a list of what I use:

    1: 3/8 oz football head in chartruses
    2: 3/8 oz football head in glow
    3: 3/8 oz round head in chartruses
    4: 1/4 oz round head in chartruses
    5: 1/4 oz round head in glow
    6: 1/4 oz football head in chartruses
    7: 5/16 oz darter head in chartruses
    8: 5/16 oz darter head in glow

    I mainly use 1/4 and 5/16 oz for bass and the 3/8 oz for halis.

    I've fished a lot of BH 1/4 oz. and 3/8 oz. lead heads in all colors and have had great success.

    When in doubt BH Rainbow Trout or BH Spottie Special on a green 3/8 oz. lead head. Usually on 6 or 8lb. test.

    Of course, when the spotties are on the chew, they'll eat just about anything you throw at them.

    Good luck man. Newport is a fun place to fish.
