Default Re: What type jigs for Sea Bass?

Ava jigs with treble hooks work well. I have also caught countless seabass on small shimano flat sided butterfly jigs with double hooks on the top eye.

Work ava jigs traditionally like a yoyo. For flat sided butterfly jigs, hit the bottom and twitch your rod 1-2X on the bottom let it drop and repeat. Braid is a must IMO.

From my experience, jigging is usually only productive if the fish are thicker or more aggressive and the larger more fish are usually drawn to the jigs.

Hope that helps.
