Been watching a lot of Videos about this subject DC, this is one of the best ones out there, your breakdown has been a littlie better than others. I like how you completely covered up the head on that handtied jig (TOP SECRET) stuff right there. Thank you for making it.
My brother in law took me to my 1st lake to bass fish. It was center hill lake in Tenn. You probably know it’s a clear lake, in 1974,and he tied on a hair jig that he tied out of deer hair. And we caught the dang Nabbit out of small mouth. You reminded me of that, and I’m going to go tie some of those. Thx for sharing dat.
I use hair jigs in my river amd the bass seem to be attracted to them pretty good. However, I use long neck ewg jig heads ( ball/swim etc) and tie my own hair amd feathers... Works out pretty good
My grandfather made hair jigs back in the 50’s for fisherman chasing striped bass (a.k.a. Rockfish) on the Santee Cooper lakes. He used belly hair from deer my uncle shot. Had to be a deer shot towards the end of the season when that hair was the longest. Rumor has it my grandfather also wouldn’t hesitate to cut belly hair from a roadkill deer after the season went out.
Great video, 1st bait my dad taught me how to fish as a kid and it is still my go to, hair jigs have really evolved since I began throwing them in the early 90's
I don’t know how old hair jigs are but I read about President Teddy Roosevelt and he talked about hair jigs in his outdoor book and that was in the late 1800’s.
I make these jigs and there is so many ways to make em for sure and so many different materials to use. I love em. It is a fun challenge to make what others don't and catch fish. Get r dun bubba. Next time yall come to Raleighwood NC for the Falls, Jordan, Harris express gimme a shout.
awesome vid DC. Totally agree with you on the hook set. Don’t need to well into them like a jig because you’re not having to bust through a weed guard either. Just curious, are you also taking a loop not to get a little better action?
Ironically, I just watched the video of JW being interviewed by Zona when he won the tournament. And he asked about the hair jig. So you caught fatties, JW won a tournament….I just ordered 4 of them. The heavier ones are a little harder to find. Excellent video, thank you!!
Definitely a deal I wish you wouldn't have spoke on. It's not a secret but it isn't widely used around here because it's not sexy or a technique that is flashy. Great info though
Throw a black light on one and you’ll see why real deer hair jigs work. Science has shown that bass and other fish (Saltwater) included can see UV light reflection! And most baitfish reflect UV also.
Shoot I’d give anything to fish with DC, MDJ, and ol J DUB together any day!
Why you gotta do Adrian like that?
The most honest fisherman out there. Respect this channel a lot. 🥃

I'm in my sixty's and my grandpa had hair jigs as a main bait in his wooded tackle box.
the first marabou jig was crafted by Bill Ward of Warsaw, Missouri. It occurred in 1957 when Bill was 23 years old and residing in Amsterdam, Missouri
my dad and his brothers were tieing small 1/4 oz hair jigs of squarrel hair for largemouth back in rhe 1960 !!!!!!
Now that's there's livescope it's gonna get real popular! Great vid brotha👊
Been using them as I said. But , this info is super helpful.. especially retrieve ideas & tricks.
I really appreciate the information on the hair jig not many pro anglers would be willing to show how to use one!👍

I live in NC do you have hair jigs for sale?
@@findingfish I can make them. Blessed Vet Baits on FB.
Great stuff D.C.!
DC is there a reason I should avoid working the bait with the rod instead of the reel? Kinda like you would with a spoon. 🛎
Good video and topic, DC!
Son headed to Lay Lake for Mossy Oak Junior Series. Launch at Beeswax. Any advice? Area, patterns, baits? Gotta throw the swim jig...right!? 😁
Can you do a vid of the swim bait you were throwing ? Keep up the videos always watch on MLF
Thanks for the awesome video hammer!!!
Good stuff dude !
Do you prefer Lowrance active target over Garmin panoptix and do you fish Martin
What brand hair jig?
awesome vid DC. Totally agree with you on the hook set. Don’t need to well into them like a jig because you’re not having to bust through a weed guard either. Just curious, are you also taking a loop not to get a little better action?
The plug was klutch 🤣
Your the best man 🇺🇸🎣🎣
Hey DC. Can you fish Lake Logan Martin. I need some help finding the bass. This is my home lake.
Good stuff bro
Will using wireleader on the hair jig to catch barracuda kill the jig action?
Keep it small. No 4 or 6. wire. Spro 65 lb. power swivel. 3 to 4 inches long. Works great.
Water clarity important for a hair jig?
What's the name brand for your "Go To" hair jigs?
The one he has tied on was a Picasso hair jig
Ironically, I just watched the video of JW being interviewed by Zona when he won the tournament. And he asked about the hair jig. So you caught fatties, JW won a tournament….I just ordered 4 of them. The heavier ones are a little harder to find. Excellent video, thank you!!
Do they work in florida?
Chicken hair love it!
Good video
Ding!!😁
Mondo worm
What location you use this method the most deep, or rocky deep area???
I tie my own hair gigs with a touch of a round rubber collar and it's like throwing dynamite for smallies
Definitely a deal I wish you wouldn't have spoke on. It's not a secret but it isn't widely used around here because it's not sexy or a technique that is flashy. Great info though
Tim Horton was the first I saw throwing a hair jig in a bass masters tourney
Been doing it for 50 plus
👍
How long do you typically cry after losing one of these $20 hair jigs?
But what gear ratio reel?
Covered it in the video 7.1
I bet Googan Baits loves this video....LoL. Maybe they will produce a good one...?
Picasso hairjig?
You should have thrown that on Bogus Martin,. Lol....
Moses actually was time hair jigs back before he parted the red sea there's rumors he called a 25 pound bag to help feed all the escape slaves
I see even Championship Bass fisherman get the stupid phone calls about student loans and car warranty etc. Haha
Where are you?
1941 FIRST BUCK TAIL HAIR JIG MADE

Note to cameraman your iso has been a bit low last several vids and you need to do a white balance
Still working to get the camera dialed in with a new lens
10-4 ! Audio is spot on!
@@rowdybroomstick1216 exposure on this one was blown out and I had to bring it down in post. Most likely what you are seeing.
Boomhauer
