Now that we got that out of the way I guess it’s time to reveal this "Million Dollar Bass Bait" to all you fellow anglers and potential bass anglers. This bait is more commonly known as the JIG & PIG combo. This bait has earned more money for anglers than any other artificial bass bait that has ever been produced especially when fishing it in bass tournaments. Denny Brauer just for example (one of the top super pros of bass angling) became the 1st millionaire from fishing bass tournaments and guess what bait he used most of the time to make his money? You got it, the Jig & Pig Combo. 

Another fact about this bait is that it has earned tournament anglers more money for the "Lunker" or "Big Bass" pots in most bass tournaments ever fished. I guess one could comfortably say that the winnings earned by bass anglers when using this bait over the past 30 years would not just fall in the million dollar bracket, but closer to the MILLIONS of dollars bracket as well as earning them fame and fortune for many of the well known top bass pros.

It’s kinda odd when you think about a bait such as this getting very little attention to the average angler, especially after knowing what this bait can produce. When a student enrolls in my 3-day bass fishing school I always ask him or her what type of baits they normally use, what kind of experience they have as far as bass angling, what type of equipment they use, what their goals are, and what knowledge they hope to gain while attending my school, but what really surprises me is that the Jig & Pig is rarely even mentioned by them. 

Let me tell you a little secret, if you learn how to fish a Jig & Pig combo correctly and give the bait a fair chance (not just thirty minutes and put it away like most anglers) at least a good full day to get a good feel of the bait, I can just about promise you that you’ll become addicted to it especially after catching  your first lunker bass while using it.
