Anyone else hear anything about this one? guest Posted 6/12/2006 11:12 AM (#44881 - in reply to #44803) Subject: RE: Towing Jig maybe he said trolling jig not towing!LOL GNWC Rookie Posted 6/12/2006 11:26 AM (#44883 - in reply to #44803) Subject: RE: Towing Jig Member Posts: 625 Location: LaCrosse, WI Birdhunter, I'm from the LaCrosse area and have never heard of a "towing jig". I have to assume it is just a leadhead jig being trolled or dragged at a quick pace. I've caught many eyes dragging jigs with live bait or ringworms on the Mississippi over the last few years. As far as trolling jigs, I prefer to snap jig down stream instead of trolling them because they are hard to keep a consistant depth. I'd ask your brother to email you a picture. I did a Google search and didn't come up with any decent results. This is something either extremely local to a small town or just a different way of explaining one of the techniques above.
