Full instructions are included with all of Redneck's Juglines, as well as all the materials required to fish the juglines either free floating or anchored. The only thing that is not provided is the weight, For free floating juglines split shot weights are used, and most every angler has some of these available. If not they can be purchased in a pack for less than $1.00 at a bait shop. If you choose to fish the anchored juglines, a weight will be needed but we provide you with a list of items that are easy to use, work great, and can most often be obtained at little or no cost to you.

Other than the weights needed, everything is here and ready to fish (with some minor assembly), I leave the last few steps to you so you can determine if you want the jugs anchored or free floating. Full instructions are provided and it is a quick and easy process to finish assembly.

The actual "jug" is constructed of closed cell polyethylene, which is highly buoyant and durable. The core of the jug that bears the weight and takes all the abuse from the fish is made of PVC, which is highly durable. Both the polyethylene and the PVC are built to last and will resist the elements for quite some time. There is no paint involved in the jugs so there is no need to worry about some cheap paint chipping and coming off.

The line used in Redneck's Juglines is the very best available which is a highly durable braided nylon twine. The line has high break strength so it can handle the biggest of fish, as well as anything else you throw at it. The line is heat fused on all ends so there is no need to worry about in unraveling or coming apart.

The swivels are premium swivels with high break strength.

The hooks provided are QUALITY EAGLE CLAW Kahle hooks. They are nickle plated so they do not rust and dull, and as always, eagle claw laser sharp quality. Extra hooks are available for purchase also including bleeding red circle hooks.

Finally when all is said and done, the jug is topped off with a strip of reflective tape around the top, increasing visibility at night. If you hit these jugs with a spotlight, they will light up like the 4th of July on the water.

Again, nothing but the best is being used here. Premium quality tackle and materials that meet the demands of the most serious fishermen. Redneck prides himself in the fact that he uses tackle and materials that is all high quality. No corners are cut in making these jugs.

The number of jugs you use is up to you. Many anglers will set as many as 100-jug line hooks at one time when they go jugging. Others just throw out a few while they are rod and reel fishing. Either way, this is a fun and easy way to put fish in your cooler.

Juggin is also a great way to get kids hooked on fishing. The "waiting game" is eliminated and there is often constant action if you're setting several jugs. This makes it fun for the kids. "Lil' Redneck" has been juggin with "Redneck" since he was 3 years old, and loves it!

I purchased the redneck pack of 24 jugs and hardware. Received the package Thursday but didn't get out to the lake untill Saturday. I boated 19 blues in 3 hrs. The jugs are a good quality made fishing jugs and work great. They are as easy to use as any jug I have used before and they store in a milk crate 16 to a crate. The jugs I have used and bragged about before I bought rednecks would have cost over $300.00 for 24 of them plus the hardware and weights. Redneck's jugs are much cheaper and work just as well. Thanks , I'm completely satisfied with your product. ..... Jimmy Whitsell, Farmersville Texas

I do not think you will find a better jug for the price than the Redneck jugs. I used to use the gallon detergent bottles. They are a pain to store. The Redneck jugs fit in a milk crate. .... David Moulton, Mansfield Texas

You can buy Rednecks jugs cheaper than you can make em, and the materials are of higher quality than you can come up with. Buy the jugs, in reality they are cheap if your time is worth anything. I had rather fish than build jugs.... Jackie Kennedy, Lancaster Texas

Redneck is an avid cat fisherman and also sells a homemade catfish bait for juglines and trotlines, Redneck's Catfish Bait Soap. Chad "redneck" Ferguson has been featured in national fishing publications, as well as many local and regional fishing publications for his expertise in catfishing and jugfishing.

Jug fishing or "jugging" is a means of setting multiple hooks in the water in one or various locations to increase the odds of catching fish. Jugs are a form of setline, like a trotline or limb line, and have been used for years, but recent popularity of "juggin" has brought increased exposure to this method of fishing.

While different anglers have different techniques and setups, they all have one common goal, which is to catch fish, typically catfish. Some jug fishermen are on the quest to land a trophy sized blue catfish or flathead catfish, and others simple look to catch a mess of eating sized channel catfish. Whatever your goal may be in regards to catching catfish, Redneck's Juglines will work.

There are two types of juglines, one is the free-floating jugline and the other is the anchored jugline. Both methods are highly effective and both have advantages and disadvantages. It all comes down to personal preference and what you want to do.

Both methods employ the same setup, but the main difference between the two is the amount of weight attached to the jugline. Redneck's Juglines will work as free floating juglines or as anchored juglines, and will be effective either way.

A free-floating jugline is setup with just enough weight to keep the line straight and in the water. The jugline of this type typically has one hook on the end of the line with a small split shot sinker above it. The juglines are released in "sets" in a river or lake and then allowed to be carried across the water by current and or wind. This creating something similar to drift fishing, but your increasing your odds by increasing the number of hooks you have in the water, and allowing you to fish multiple different areas and depths at the same time. The jugs are typically set, and then allowed to travel a certain distance, removed from the water and then the process is started again. During this time your watching your jugs for them to start bobbing and dancing in the water which indicates that there is a fish on.

The major advantage of free floating juglines is that you can cover a lot of water and the let the bait go to the fish, instead of waiting for the fish to come to the bait. The biggest disadvantage of free floating the juglines is that there is no weight to hold the jugline in place so either wind or fish can carry them a long way if your not careful.

Free-floating juglines must be attended to. You cannot leave them for long periods of time, because doing so will only cause you to lose jugs. A big fish can really move a jugline with no weight on it a long way in a short period of time.

Anchored juglines are the method that is typically preferred by fishermen that fish lakes and reservoirs. Anchored juglines are setup with "drops" or "trots" off of the mainline and then a weight of anywhere from 1 to 2 lbs is tied to the end of the line. The weight is placed on the bottom of the lake or reservoir. This weight not only keeps the jugline in place while you are waiting to get a bite, but also helps tire fish out if you land a big fish on your jugline and greatly reduces the amount of area you have to search for your juglines.

Anchored juglines can also be left in the water for extended periods of time and do not have to be constantly watched and attended to.

Many anglers will set anchored juglines in the water and leave them while they rod and reel fish or even go home and come back several hours later to "run their jugs".

The number of hooks employed on anchored juglines is dependent on your local laws, and personal preference. Some anglers use as many as five hooks on one anchored jugline. I recommend using no more than two hooks, because anymore than that creates issues with tangling, but also can be very dangerous. A fifty-pound angry catfish on the bottom of a jug can really be dangerous if there is more than 2 hooks on the jugline. Using only 2 hooks makes the whole process much faster, and safer.

The major advantage of anchored juglines is they do not have to be attended to constantly, and they are typically much easier to locate and keep up with. 99% of the time they are exactly where you left them. The disadvantage of anchored juglines vs. free-floating jugs is that you lose the ability to cover a tremendous amount of water and put the bait in front of the fish. With an anchored jug line you have to wait for the fish to come to you.
