An above water shot of the rod action and below water shot of the jigs moving around. I read a lot about problems with scoped out jigs, would like to see what that looks like under water.

Additional question: usually the skipper has the boat correctly set-up on the drift and they let you know what side of the boat to fish - usually where the wind is in your face but with respect to the current below as you refer to as “SOG” - what’s the best way to know if the current and drift are the same direction or opposite?

What jigs do you guys recommend for NorthEast waters? We're talking Pollock, Haddock, Cod, Stripers, Blues, and Ling.. Pretty much all bottom dwellers except for the Stripers and Blues.. Mackerel are blueish and bunkers kinda go gold to brown. Both are baitfish for our bottomfeeders depending on the time of year. Would you recommend matching the color of the jigs to the baitfish in the area?

Take off both sets of hooks? Wait no… Must be very sticky bottom. Just be careful of feeling the bottom and not setting on it. Tap and do a light pull to get the jig up safely with out being snagged and then pitch away. If you feel the snag tip down slack in the line and wiggle it free. If that makes sense…

WOW. I can see I have so much to learn about jigging and proper selection of jigs. If you don't mind, can I ask a few questions and maybe get a recommendation for a jig pack from you. I fish off the West Coast of Florida, from Fort Myers to the Tampa Bay skyway bridge. Most of the fishing is in depths of 60 to 100 feet. I like to fish for Snapper, grouper, yellowtails as well as cobia, amberjack, trigger fish and the occasional flounder that may be out there . As you can see, it is not deep and I try to stay within 30 miles of the coast. I would usually not go out if we have anything over 4ft seas and like my very calm days. So, most of the time, I do not have a strong wind current and will be dealing with water currents. I understand about SOG and appreciate the fact that you hit on that topic so clearly. What 12 jigs would you recommend to a beginning and how would you advised me to approach it? I have been watching the videos for days now and find it very interesting and a way not to have to use a lot of live bait. Thanks again. Tom

Hey Tom, I would recommend using jigs from 40-100g. Consider purchasing the micro jig adventure pack. Also please feel free to call the shop. My team or I would be happy to help you pick out the correct gear for the West coast. Johnny

Can you tell when you have a stronger current in the bottom 1/3rd than you do in the upper 1/3? And if so, how do you know? Seems to me that in this condition, we most likely have an unknown bow in our line near the bottom. Which is maybe why we have days that should be, seem to be good weather days but don't produce numbers of fish? We don't know our jigs aren't acting like we think they are. On a side note, I spent 29 years trolling Salmon/Trout on Lake Michigan. For this we used a Fish Hawk X4 (or similiar) that told us the exact speed our lures were at depth and what speed our boats SOG is, along with our locators. We could then exactly determine what the current speed and direction was in that area on that given day and adjust our actual lure speed into the optimum range. I can see how an X4 would possibly be of benefit to hard core slow pitch jigging crowd. Yet, I've never seen speed and temp gauges being used anywhere in salt water.

Which jig slides side to side as it falls down the water columns? I want the one that slides side to side erratically as it falls down the water columns, not the one that goes straight down real fast. So which jig do you recommend if I want the one that slides and flutters as much as possible and hangs in the water columns for a while before it hits the bottom? I appreciate it very much if you could give me a list of them or even link a few of them here for me! Thanks in advance if you could help me!

I’m asking as a beginner. If the lure has an eye on it, is that the top of the jig or the bottom? If the lure is scooped out on one side, is the scooped end the bottom of the jig or the top of the jig?
@JohnnyJigsTV
@JohnnyJigsTV 2 жыл бұрын
Tracy, That is a great question. On the jigs with a scoop the scoop is always down. For the most part the eye is a good indicator of where to tie your leader but not always. If the jig is bottom weighted always heavy side down. If the jig is center weighted i generally will tie to the side with the eye. There's always exceptions to the rules but the is a great guide to go by and you will have success...Johnny

We generally will be able to use 500-600 grams in 300 meters. 1 gram per foot works well up to 300' but will really depend on the conditions. The main idea is to use as light of a jig as possible and stay vertical.
