Slow Jigging

(1/3) > >>

Brian Richardson:
Well for us older folks this peaks interest.  I read somewhere about a new technique called slow jigging.  This may be similar to the yoyo technique used off So. Calif. for yellowtail???

I read where some new jig designs were coming out for this.  Can someone bring us up to speed on this technique...tackle lures etc.???

Thanks

Brian

Eric Tai:
Hi Brian,

I've found this website very informative:

Mark Harris:
Huge question Brian!

You will find Eric's link very helpful.

Also, do a YouTube search for videos bv BlueBlueFishing. Even though these is particular to Blue Blue jigs, there is a lot of tedschnique stuff which is applicable to slow jigging across the board.

Having completely lost interest in jigging, slow jigging has re-ignited my enthusiasm.

Brian Richardson:
Thanks for the replies guys.  Yeah Mark jigging is an awful of work but the slow jigging would seen to open up the same opportunities but with less work.  Same water column same fish less strenuous technique.

Eric Tai:
After spending hours reading through the anglers-secrets.com website I finally picked up a poisedon 603 & ocean jigger1500hg to give it a crack. It appears to be much more "technical" than regular "mechanical jigging". I haven't quite got the hang of it yet. I'm also trying to get used to an overhead without lever-wind -laying line manually is so annoying-  I think I should have got the ryoga bayjigger instead!
