Re: Blackfish Jigging Rod
Faster lighter blanks the way to go ! I've always preferred a med power FT conventional blank using bait . Bait n jig technique I prefer the spin set up !
A 7' -7.6 ' med power extra fast taper spin outfit , translates into a a very solid set up for this fishery .
What many miss here is the rod construction , mine all have 9" + foregrips to allow u to hold the Rod in front of the reel , this dramatically lightens the tip weight & notifies u of the slightest hit , which can translate into solid hook sets when coupled to an ultra fast taper blank .
The rods I use fit this bill perfectly truly the lightest fastest I've ever seen anywhere ! I've only taken smaller fish on them so far up to 11#'s but it was no match to move n land these fish w/o issue.
