How to Select your Ugly Bug Jigs:
There is a basic rule to purchasing the Ugly Bug jig. In spring, buy light colors. In the heat of the summer, buy dark colors. In fall, go back to the light colors. In spring and fall, tip with minnows. In the hot months, tip with crawlers or leeches.
Deep lake water and spawning areas downstream from huge river dams require the use of the larger 5/8 oz. Ugly Bugs. Many of these areas are fished best by vertically jigging this size and ti pping it with walleye size sucker minnows. |
