Meegs Jigs, lures, and everything else!

In our quest to keep our focus on companies here in Ontario, we have been in touch with many lure manufacturers and tackle shops in the province. Perhaps one of the most innovative and friendly companies we have dealt with is www.meegsonline.com

Meegs online are the inventors of the Meegs Jigs which are a revolutionary invention in the fishing world. These jigs are not jigged up and down in the typical sense of jigging, but are fished in a slow baitfish movement. The way in which the head of the jig is designed allows for a perfect balance so that when your rod-tip is slightly twitched, the lure perfectly mimics a bottom feeding baitfish. This drives fish mad!

www.meegsonline.com has been in the business for just under two years, and the current production design was just released earlier in January of 2006. While most people have been using these jigs for ice fishing only, they are absolutely indispensable for summer time whitefish and trout jigging along with walleye and those deep lazy summertime smallies. Keep your eye open for an upcoming article on using Meegs jigs for summertime fishing action!

Derik and I had the opportunity to go out fishing with John Marshe of www.meegsonline.com a couple of weeks ago to pick his brain on the different lures that they offer. “We are moving into spinners and musky bait to appeal to different audiences that may not have had an interest in our jigs.” Says Marshe. “Our jigs have been so successful over the winter months, but we need to show anglers that they can be productive any time of the year!” The secret is really in the quality of the design and the action of the jig.

A good tip when using the Meegs Jig is to tip it with the tail half of a micro tube. This completes the baitfish illusion, and allows for quick colour changes.

With an incredible product like this, and a standup team behind it, we’re telling you to keep your eye on Meegs for great things to come! Make sure to check out their site, and pick up some jigs for you next fishing trip (mention this article of course). I can personally GUARANTEE that you will not be disappointed!

Now, we here at www.threeguysfishing.com are always up to trying out new techniques and equipment, and we’re really looking forward to catching fish this summer on the Meegs jigs! Having said this, we will be trying the jigs throughout the rest of the year hopefully with some photos to follow, so stay tuned!
