Especially true in colder weather.

[@timmontano8792]

In the waters where I fish, I have way better luck when I fish with smaller lures. This includes soft-plastics, micro crank baits or whatever.

[@stevevanhorn1909]

Thanks for the tip .... I used to throw Bitsy Bugs a LOT, but moved away from them in favor of larger offerings ..... Gonna have to go back to smaller baits !

[@SteveRogersOutdoors]

Those bitsy bugs are some amazing jigs. Like you, I’ve caught so many fish on them.

[@stevechandler5006]

great advice... as usual. thanks.

[@Rooster0529]

Caught my PB smallie on a compact peanut butter & jelly jig.

[@SteveRogersOutdoors]

That is a great color!

[@jakekomosa1406]

Great stuff Steve. Your videos are the best. Great info & enjoyable to watch.

[@SteveRogersOutdoors]

Glad you like them!

[@jackson4274]

As fall winds render most of my finesse presentations useless, this is wonderful advice

[@SteveRogersOutdoors]

Glad it was helpful!

[@ricknelson4793]

Thanks for the reminder to downsize on occasion I will be trying to get on them tomorrow. Hopefully the 10 to 20 mph winds will help. 🎣

[@SteveRogersOutdoors]

Good luck!

[@somewhereinsd362]

Great tip steve especially this time of year, all my recent bass and walleye catches have been spitting up 2 inch gill and crappie...

[@SteveRogersOutdoors]

Thanks! They are definitely on smaller forage around here as well.

[@somewhereinsd362]

It is cooling fast here, was 25 this morning... gonna go lower tonight, I think my boat days are numbered ...lol

[@shannonkirby9295]

Hey, Steve, great to see ya today. Pray y'all are well. I put a photo on Instagram of a fish I caught Saturday. Had a lot of fun. I used a compact jig with a baby rage craw trailer. Good stuff 😊

[@SteveRogersOutdoors]

Excellent! You’ll have to let me know what your Instagram is.

[@w-Shultze-22]

I was out on the lake yesterday, struggling to get bites on my T-rig even though I was seeing life around me. I sorta gave up on the day and threw a 90 size whopper plopper for the fun of it. Landed 8 bass after making the switch. Finesse isn’t always better.

[@SteveRogersOutdoors]

That’s great!

[@johndynneson662]

Steve. I Love ❤️ your under water camera video work. Iff. I haven’t seen it already. Can you do a video of skirted swim jigs and how different Swimbait body’s act on the skirted jig under water. 🤔🤔. Trying to find those body’s dual action that make the skirt ungulate N. Pulsating. Too get fish too react. 🤔🤔

[@SteveRogersOutdoors]

I will have to do that one. Thank you for the idea!

[@raygissendanner1476]

Great information thank you

[@SteveRogersOutdoors]
