what ever works and probably smallies

I would specify what exactly you are talking about pitching, football head, skirted, flipping, largemouth, smallmouth... and I would utilize the search tool in the upper right hand side. There have been SEVERAL very good discussions about all the types of jigs I mentioned in the past! I will tell you jigs work I caught a fish on one yesterday.
Check out this video
The trick to using anything is to fish where the fish are
PJ is spot on with what he said
For smallies go with a football head 1oz skirted or unskirted with some sort of trailer.
Just winter time for football heads? No way. Football heads are all year stuff just as much as Drop shots. 1 full oz is only needed in the wind for the most part (curent you'll need em' too) You need to get yourlelf a more sensitive rod and lighter line if thats the only size your using for football heads for smallmouth. Go as light as you can with still being able to feel bottum. 1/4oz-1/2oz gets the job done well 99.9% of the time with a GLX jig&worm spinning rod.
Hahaha
Everyone has such different opinions...
I love using jigs alot, the biggest jig I own is 1oz and thats only for punching at Silver ( Cowlitz Co.)
but after that, my next heaviest jig is a 3/8
I love smaller and smaller weighted jigs, My last jig fish came out of 25-30ish feet w/ a 1/8oz jig
I love throwing those light jigs in deeper water, just sucks waiting that 1-2 mins to get near the bottom.
But I always get alot of crap from Austin about how I fish!
I do agree w/ PJ though, dragging the heavier jigs and plowing rocks and wood has always been effective anytime of year depending on the lake for me
