We need more content from you guys on the west coast. As a long beach ca johnny jigs fan, we are going to need more west coast vids to give us more instructions on how to properly use slowpitch for rockfish. 😏 keep up the content guys. 🤙🎣👏

Hahahaha! You guys get sharked and we get "sea lioned"! Happens all the time around the Coronado's when we're fishing yellowtail. Like you and sharks, we're used to it here. So cool you were able to catch our local favorite, the rock fish. Many different species here!

Went to your website - easy to use - jigs are already on their way within your system - great selection

So sick🤙🏼🤙🏼would love to see Yellowtail catches using SPJ. That’s my goal this summer in La Jolla.

Nice job love me some fish tacos. Wish I could have met you guys when I was in FL. Unfortunately I was not able to get out on the water at all due to the winds of 20+ the whole time I was out there. But I stopped by the shop picked up a couple jigs and am headed out of SD on June 15th for a 1.5day! Wish me luck on some big tuna!

Keep the great vids coming👍

Awesome vid

This Spring we have been Crushing Mid Size Blue Fin 30-80lbs on Slow Pitch Jigs in Red and White and Red and Orange Glow 200-250 Gram in the Middle of the night. We Primarily used to Sleep at night but eventually when Slow Pitch Jigging made it here to the West Coast someone tried them at night and a new nighttime bite was discovered and it’s been a lot more consistent of a bite than the day bite

come up to Santa barbara we have a few charters this year already with groups who slow pitch jig on our boats specifically for the amazing rockfishing we get whether its a 3/4 day trip on the stardust or a 2day trip on the coral sea

Nice! love to see Johnny jigs fishing in the waters that I love to fish and to take off from my home town I have a friend of mine who owns his own pangas in a place call Ejido Erendira about a 3hr drive from San Diego down south

I need to get a set of those Red-Golds to try here in SD. I’ll hit you guys up soon!

Mam.. I'd LOVE to go fishing with you guy's!! I'm newer to Offshore fishing and I am ADDICTED!! I'm hoping to get some of your Jigs to ise for some Tuna!! Keep up the GREAT work gentlemen! Much respect and support from Yuma, AZ. 👍👍

Cool video, glad you got to enjoy our Rockfish Fishery. I've been SPJ fishing for rockfish for the last 3 years since Benny introduced me to the technique. You need to plan a trip to the Channel Islands or San Nicholas Island when our Rockfish season starts in March, so you can target some bigger models of whitefish, vermillion rockfish (reds), Chuckleheads, Starry Eye Rockfish, Canary Rockfish, and the elusive Lingcod with SPJ. As for the Salmon Grouper those were small I've seen those get close to 20lbs. 20lb & 30lb spectra is more than enough as we're limited to 600' and can't use more than 2 hooks on our jigs for rockfish, two on top or two on bottom or one and one in US waters

More west coast videos! Love it

OK Johnny, you’re gonna need to take your show on the road to Alaska. I spend 10 weeks a year in AK and use slow pitched and regular jigged Johnny Jigs and pound the ocean species- rockfish, halibut and lingcod. Occasionally hit a few salmon as well. Would love to see you guys make the AK trip and put some of those whoppers in the boat. Love your stuff and your trips. 👍

Ayos Po 💪😉

You guys absolutely make some of the best slow pitch jigging videos out there. You explain alot on how to do certain things you do. From the gear, making assist hooks, knots, line used, what gram jigs to use and when. Being a beginner can you make a how to video on how you cast or throw those jigs out away from the boat. I know it would take some practice. just need some info to get started the right way. Thanks. JIG ON!

I live in So Cal and have been slow pitching here for many years. Rockfish really bite when there is good current and they dont like a lot of action with the rod. They like small slow pitches. A lot of time they will hit just the jig just sitting there moving in the current. They dont swim of the bottom very far. So make faster jigging upwards off the bottom is not going to do any good. You're better off hitting bottom then taking a couple slow pitches and then going back down to bottom.

Great video guys! Johnny; unfortunately, I don't have multiple rides & reels so I have to make the braid on my one spj setup work. I would think switching to a heavier weighted jig would be equivalent to switching to a lighter lb test. Is that correct?

But you didn’t get any lingcod as I told Johnny there’s something about the lingcod… Especially the big ones… just prefer a live bait or an octopus… been fishing out here in California slow pitch for four years and I’ve caught multiple lingcod’s however, nothing over 7 pounds and my personal best is 19 on bait

That’s dope! When you guys coming back?

Heard u say you’d rather be using 30lb braid, what reel would you use for 30 and what accurate are you using for 40lb? Looks like an accurate?

The rockfish here have an addiction to slow jigs usually get em every cast/drop

What’s your input on running a shimano talica 8 as a slow pitch reel? Asking bc I one a set of 16’s and like to keep my gear matching. Lmk

How deep were you guys fishing in this video?

gold and red is pully ridge style.

That is my kind of trip! Limit on Tuna then limit on fish taco meat! What rod would you recommend for rockfishing?

SPJ works great for rockfish, just be ready to lose a lot of the expensive jigs to the rocky area...

If the sharks weren't bad enough, they have to deal with sea lions too!?!? I guess the taxes really are higher in California!

If you had to go with one reel for bottom fish fishing 500 to 600 ft SPJ. What’s the choice of your reel ? Accurate Boss Valiant 300 Or Shimano Ocea F 1500HG? Also what lbs test braid line would you fish that deep ? Thanks in advance.
