Jig Fishing – Reel Blue Collar Method
Bottom wrecks. Open water. One lure. Big results.
Jigging isn’t for the faint. Drop a weighted lure, yank it up sharp, let it fall—then brace for the hit. It’s a skilled, high-reward method that works deep structure and draws strikes from bottom dwellers and pelagics alike.
Gear & Rigging
Rods & reels: Compact yet powerful jigging rods—built with enough backbone to haul fish from depth, but responsive enough to get the action right.
Jigs: Choose metal jigs that flutter and drop—based on water depth and current. The right weight gets you to the bottom fast, then action sells the bite.
Line setup: Braided mainline with heavy mono or fluoro leader—strong enough for toothy or structure-bound fighters.
When & Where to Jig
Over wrecks, reefs & drop-offs: These are prime hangouts for grouper, snapper, amberjack, and pelagic predators.
Deep-water runs: Vertical jigging over 200–1,500 ft structure puts you in striking range of tilefish, swordfish, and big tunas.
Why Jig with Us
Targeted coverage: Jigging puts action directly over fish—no drifting needed.
Immediate feedback: You feel every tick, adjust your retrieve, set the hook—instant engagement.
Dual-species payoff: One jig drop can hook a snapper or trigger a big pelagic strike—versatility equals nonstop opportunity.
Pro Tactics
Hit hard and fast: Drop to depth, snap the jig up, let it flutter.
Watch the line: A twitch off-line = fish on; set it tight.
Keep tempo: Hit that structure repeatedly—don’t just drop and wait.
Leader up: Expect abrasive mouths; wire leaders save rods and patience.
