I have no interest in deep drop fishing unless I can jig for them!

Just like cod jigging but deeper. I exaggerate the sweep of the jig even more than when cod jigging to compensate for the extra scope in deeper water. The biggest difference between cod jiging and tile jigging other than depth is that the tiles will hit the jig on the drop, out of the mudd and in the middle of a sweep, where as codfish typically eat the jig on the drop.
I never use a teaser and I sometimes tip the jig with a small squid head or strip for the tiles, but I am moving away from any bait while jigging. For groupers I always jig unbaited
