Spot on.
If you’re not hitting bottom then it’s not the Pontchartrain Pop. It’s just bouncing the jig up and down in the water column.
Usually whenever people say jigging doesn’t work for them the thing they’re unwittingly neglecting to do is get to the bottom. That’s why I ask how they know. If they can’t explain how they know, then they don’t know.
The question after that is, “What weight are you using?” In my experience, whenever this is not specified it’s because 1.) they don’t know and 2.) the sinking weight is entirely too light.
Not to mention slack line.
Otherwise, this is a great conversation and I’d love to get to the bottom of it (no pun intended lol).
