I think my wife may have stumbled on to the most torturous experience she could possibly expose me to. I am right now driving to go spend the day with the Inlaw extended family at a lake house on Lake Gaston and no fishing poles no fishing boat no fishing allowed. I may need therapy after this.

Ricky, I would love to go fishing with you when you’re down this way unfortunately this time of the year is a little tough. My wife and I are heading to Florida the day after Christmas to go see two of our children and an extended family. We will not be backuntil January 5 if you’re still in town by that time we can definitely get together and get on the water, but you don’t need to bring any poles. I have more than enough fish and tackle for the two of us.

I'm going to take a page out of BLat's playbook and answer your question with a question or 2.  What type of jig fishing are we talking about?  Flipping into heavy cover?  Maybe swimming a jig down a the edge of some grass?  Are you fishing an area/lake where there is a lot of fishing pressure?

If you are flipping blow downs or heavy vegetation, I would think straight braid, in fact I might even go straight braid anyway.  The one exception I might make would be if there is a lot of fishing pressure and your just not getting bites.  I'd more likely switch bait in that scenario, tbh.
