You want to learn to fish a jig here is what you do.  Just got back from 3 days on Canadian lakes.  All I took were 2 jig rods with 30 lb braid and a 17 lb floro leader.  Fished a 1/2 oz jig for all 3 days.  For trailers I used Chigger Craw, Paca Chunk and Stirke King Denny Brauer chunk.  All in Green Pumpkin and none seemed better than the other.  I caught over 40 bass with at least 3  5lbs or better.  Wish i had taken my scale.  Caught a lot or 2-4 pounders. The bass were shallow feeding on blue gills.   Fish a jig for 3 days and you will figure it out and be hooked. 

Now i want to go back

Are you talking about the Canadien Lakes near Stanton, MI?
Addicted to fishing.  All the time, any species, anywhere!!  Especially in West Michigan!!!

North of Stanton west of Mt Pleasant.  Got a friend with a cottage there.  We go up every year and fish while the ladies go shopping.  This year the weather was not the best but the fishing was unreal.  He has a pontoon so you just drift and cast.  The other guys fish for pike with spinners.  I flip a jig.  This year the bigger bass were shallow feeding on bluegill.   Wish I could take my Ranger but you have to be a property owner to have a boat on the lake.  I did find out they have lots for around 1000.00.  I may look into buying one so I can take my boat to fish.  Thursday the whole lake system is no wake so that would be a great day to fish.

I think Eric lives just south of there.
