Ah, yes. Why does a bucktail jig have to be working on the bottom to catch fish most of the time? Is it because the fish are holding tight to the bottom, or in a hole that breaks the current slightly? Or is it because they have to hear it bouncing off the bottom structure with their lateral line before they can zero in on it?

How many times have you had a jig hit the instant it falls off a mussel bed, a ledge, or a bar into deeper water, before it can even reach the bottom of the new hole?

Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools, because they have to say something.
