{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Jigging with fly rod

Got this blue cat out of the Tidal Basin on Memorial Day Weekend with my 'shad jig' bounced off the bottom. I should have killed the fish but released.

I'm reading up on crappie fishing, and how effective a long cane or jigging pole can be. (Especially for fishing in heavy cover where it's tough to cast. Just reach out and lower the line where you want it.)

Has anyone here done this with a fly rod? Seems the 9-foot length of my 6-weight would be a good approximation. I've just never tied on traditional tackle like jig heads with stingers or grubs.

Cheers,
