Jig vs Popping cork

[mriguy]

I knew this would be a good thread

If my customer are willing to learn I rather teach then great techniques and skills to fish a plastic, than just throw a cork and pop!

Fishing plastic with out a cork allows you to fish every level of water deep,shallow and mid

Jig weight makes a great difference in catching and fishing.

Days you have to make trout eat!

The elitists are out today. They seem to be biting on baits suspended from corks, but I think closer consideration reveals that the corks are being trolled and the trolls are being fed.

Cork is great for fishing the birds. I have been burned by guys throwing corks and me throwing a jig under the birds. Keeps bait right where they want it at all times. And for women/children so they can't get hung on the bottom. All I throw is spooks and corky's though.

I think they both have their pros and cons when used correctly. I have never had much luck with a cork, I've always done better tight line and I like that more. I'm sure it's because my cork technique isn't quite rite. I'd like to learn how to use cork better as I think it would make me a more well rounded fisherman.

I'm not prejudice. And I'm not afraid to throw a cork. Especially if I'm fishing with someone else. Depending on who I'm fishing with either I or one of my partners will at least try a cork. I figure it can't hurt. And it's better for people who are less skilled with a rod and reel.

I only use a poppin cork with mirrodines or corkys.

Water depth. Each has it's place.
No cork in 40 foot water. No gigging in 5 foot of water.

What's the deal.

I agree water depth is the key. However the last two days of fishing my son-n-law used jig and I used a cork. He did better than me on the first day and I seemed to do better on the second day. Both of us fishing the same piece of water.
