This is What Happens When You Eat, Sleep & Breath Fishing.

I spooled it with 8 LB test mono for lighter lures, gave it some practice casts and found that it did cast well kzfaq.infoUgkxSlytCJqozTF7EbdP4LWP-HUXf9WRDJ0e , except that the anti-backlash setting had to be turned up almost all of the way to keep the "overcasts' ' down. I disassembled it, and found that if I potted some "shim washers" behind that anti-backlash magnet assembly, it got the magnets closer to the spool without rubbing, and I could get better control with about a 6 to 7 out out 10-Max setting. I also noticed that the handle shaft had some internal end play, maybe only 2 or 3 thousands of an inch, but it's still noticeable. If the anti-backlash and shaft tolerances were "tightened up" this would be a fantastic value. I've only used it for 4 days of fishing in a month's time, but I plan on keeping it.

Thanks Kit. My plan this winter/spring is to get more into the jigging game and this info is very informative for me - I will have to watch it a few more times to take in all the info you share. Much appreciated. Owen.

Very informative video. thanks for sharing.

New to slow jigging. This was very informative! Thanks!

So if anyone was wondering "what about other 2 types of reels". Its also very simple. Slow conventionl reels = the best for trolling because you need to tire the big fish carefully, so you do not to lose it, plus there are fish like tuna that if you battle it very fast, its heart can explode and you killed the fish. Fast spinning reels = the best for topwater fishing and generally casting sub-surface hard plastic lures or casting jigs into a feeding frenzy, since it allows to pick up slack very fast and to pick up line fast while drilling a bigger fish. Ofc, you might lose the fish, but its a low price to pay, cuz you can take the fish out fast and so the other fish does not realize it and get stressfull or scared of artificial lures. Also, for us europeans and north americans, when spinning, use slow reel in cold water/sea and fast reel in warm water/sea. Also, take care of the actual fish that you are fishing for. For example, if you are fishing a lurking fish, use slow reel regardless of season and if you fish active fish, use fast reel regardless of season. One more tip, inchiku, kabura, tenya, zoka and fake fish/squid lures are also sub-type of slow jigging and you also want to use fast conventional reel for it. I am not trying to sell you a philosophy, its just whats logical to me, and i think that Kit would also agree with everything that i said.

Awesome.... Very useful information

Thank you for sharing experience..

super clear/ informative great video

Great vid

Amazing stuff dude. Sub!

Nice vedio sir,Very informative.

Another very informative video... thanks to Dr. Technical 🤠👍🏼

Great break down? Question can I use a shimano Ocea jigger for bottom fishing??

Wise man !

thanks for sharing idol

Arigato Sensei 👍👍👍

So which one of the overhead real is for fast jigging? I want it for fast ? Please advise

Almost bought the wrong setup, thank you for the vid!

My friend wants to buy a slow jigging reel particularly ocea jigger 2000xg he is a right handy person , should he choose a right hand or left hand reel? Normal spinning he uses left handed reels .thank you

Great video, what do you think of the 2 speed reels? Are they necessary?

Good info 👍🏻, if i may add, another reason for fast reel for slow jigging is to utilize the springing action of the rod.

Interesting educational tutorial master, thanks. Attackkk

Maybe the most usefull vid's I've look on jigging, thank you for this, even if I don't speak english realy well, all was clear!!! I usualy jig with spinning reel and thinking about change to a casting reel (it's hard to get good stuff in my country), I'm look for a left hand reel but don't have make my choise. Can you advice me? we do deep jigging most of the time (140 to 260m deep, 100 to 250gr jig, slow and fast) and catch giant trevally or dogtooth tuna.

Bula.. Big thanks from fiji for great info . Tightlines bro

im confused about getting the OJ 1500 or the OJ 2000. i fish the tropics in Bali and never go under 150 meters of water but the jigs get quite heavy (500-700g). can the smaller 1500 handle this type of jigs? any advice is welcome thank you!!

Good video. I have the 2000NRHG. Im ready to buy the very SOM handle you show in this video. I was under the impression it did NOT fit the ocea 2000. Im looking for the "egg" shaped handle with the carbon fiber arm. If you can share a source for it Id appreciate it.

Very helpful! Im new to fishing and for a year just been fishing for small fish in rocky areas and inshore. With my Light setup. Lately been more interested in catching bigger fish and began my research. What would you recommend me for jigging reel? I would prefer the slow type. Thankyou

Seen you moving between left and right hand reels , which one is more convenient for a right handed guy? what do you recommend ?

Will you recommend a conventional reel for casting poppers from surf like a saltiga 2 speed reel

hello sir, greetings from ph. i wanted to ask what are your thoughts about a certain product(which i am planning to buy as my first jigging reel) if this one is doing well or is this a good choice. the item is lurekiller blue ocean. i havent seen any reviews here on yt or even fb. i hope i can hear from you real soon. thanks and more power

Nice video Bro I would like to buy an accuarate reel for life bait and maybe for slow jigging. Which one do you recommend! Thanks in advance

Super helpful! Just ordered the Ocea 1500 HG. What handle did you recommend in the video?

Well I was dead set on a fathom 15xnld2 for my SP rod but now after the wide spool line arbor talk not so sure

Hi sir,, can you use torium in fast jigging rod.. tbx

Slow jigging what ratio are you prefer. Tq

Interesting so you prefer wide spool vs narrow spool? Getting my first SPJ set up which reel shud i get Seigler SGN,SG or Accurate Tern 300x, Tsunami forged 8? Any reel you recommend 350usd budget? Thanks!

I use a Shimano Stella SW 10k paired with a Shimano Terez TZS69MH. I fish in the Gulf of Mexico 35-100 miles out. Do you suggest a different rod?

nice bro

How do you feel personally about the Accurate BV-500N- SPJ vs. Shimano Ocea Jigger 2000HG? I just bought the Accurate and I'm almost getting second thoughts. Love the reel but I always second guess myself. I almost thought the shimano was too smooth if you can believe that.

Hallo dear friend thank you very much for this very informative video. A question, I already purchased a talica 8 single speed. Do you thing it will work for slow jigging? I ordered a longer handle on Aliexpress. But still never try them. Please let me know your opinion and take care bro.

Hello. The Saltiga LD35JH is a reel especially designed for jigging which seems to have a very narrow arbor / spool. Why would Daiwa design this jigging reel with a very narrow arbor, when a wider arbor is optimal performance for retrieve purposes - per your video? I understand the narrow arbour is best for handling (and more comfortable) for longer jigging sessions but then retrieve performance suffers and is compromised…correct? How does the arbour width of this Saltiga reel compare with the OJ 1500 reel you displayed in this video? Also, can you confirm that you have 2 x different reels for fast jigging (conventional reel for smaller fast jigs and spinning reel for longer fast jigs)? What conventional reel do you use for fast jigging - OJ2000 Correct? When would you use your Trinidad instead of your OJ reels? What model Trinidad reel is shown in this video? Cameron

Good day where did you buy those jigs the colour look nice thank you

Good my Friends,,👍👍🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣☕☕😎🤝🏡

Nice! What is the line capacity on your high speed conventional?

I allready bought an Oceans Legacy Elementus rod, which is actually a compromise between a slow jigging rod (loadable front section) but fitted with a little bit harder rear section to fight the bigger ones. So you can do both but you are limited in the weight of your jigs for fast jigging (fast max 250gr, slow max 500gr). The point is, that I bought it as a spinning setup combined with a Shimano Twin Power 8000, because I had the Idea to use the reel also for my popping rod. Now I ask myself if I did a bad purchse?

Can you show us how to lay line on a conventional reel, never had any experience with them coz im using spinning reels for all my life and i want to try them for jigging,

Do you have to lay the line a bit with your finger on the conventional reels when slow jigging? I was actually thinking of getting something with a level wind as I am not used to that at all!

I'm new to slow pitch jigging. Here in northern Europe we usually fish with with heavy soft lures or pirks that will get to the bottom as fast and straight as possible, so that we can hit the wrecks when we see them on the sounder. Maybe a stupid question but how do you get a slow jig to the bottom fast in deep water. It's built to flutter so I assume it would flutter all the way down if you just let it drop. Do you keep the line tight to orient the jig vertically and avoid the fluttering?

Tanks for information..salam strike

Very informative sir 👍 So i just want to clarify if wide spool is better for slow jigging than the narrow spool? Is okuma cavalla 5IILX good for slow jigging?

Kit, If you haven't already, please check out & review with your opinion on the Daiwa SASD15. Thanks/TIGHT Lines!!!

thank you for sharing master

building a jigging geat and looking for a new reel but i never used Conv. reel, so a bit worried. And I heard you need to adjust line when reel up, if you don't have line assist.

I want to buy fast jigging rod overhead please advise for both-reel & rod Thanks but I need them to be good with P.E4 Thanks 🙏

It doesn't always have to be fast your reel can go i always real fast to pick up the slack slow pitch jigging is all about what you're comfortable with and your Technique Okuma Makara 8 baby I make it work 20 lb pe line in a 120 foot bottom Gulf of Mexico baby
