Crawfish Bottom-dwelling insects Small sculpins or gobies Injured forage moving slowly Walleye Yellow Perch Brook Trout (small marabou or feather jigs) Black Crappie Effective when fish are holding close to the bottom structure Can be fished slowly for lethargic or pressured fish Offers subtle, controlled action in all water temperatures Mimics a wide range of natural prey depending on jig style Use light feather jigs for trout in moving water Hop or drag jigs along rocky bottoms for walleye and perch Swim small jigs steadily for open-water crappie Pair larger jigs with craw-style plastics for bottom-feeding predators Topwater poppers create surface disturbance that draws attention from predatory fish looking upward, especially during low-light periods or calm conditions

Big worms (10 and up) catch fish all summer long, but they really stand out against other soft plastics at night
