Brother I learned so much in this one video it’s ridiculous. You have broken down and explained very throughly and made it simple. Let up the great work brother. Thank you for the info
Thank you for the kind words 🤙
Great videos you are producing. Thanks for sharing all the info. You are a natural at the videos and do a wonderful job of explaining things.
Also a big thank you for responding to all the questions. Many youtubers don't answer questions.
Thank you for the kind words, I like sharing what I know so that everyone can follow what I'm doing!
Good info Derrick, I caught my first bluefin (#60) after watching one of your video. Speed jigging with Phenix 609 rod and Avet JX Raptor reel. Landed the fish within 5 minutes. Jigging rocks!!
@@RobertLin-i4e totally rad man hope it's first of many to come!
Great and informative video. I just found your channel. I have been shopping Evike for years and knew they had "small selection" of fishing gear. I never realized they had a whole dedicated section/store.
@@Duhamal thanks!
Super detailed info. Thanks for sharing 🙌
@Seastheday88 thanks! Glad I could share something useful
Fire , information! That store looks crazy nice … jig heaven
Thanks 🤙
Great info bud; makes me want to have a light, medium and heavy set up now instead of just a medium.
@markgonzales9555 thanks, there's a time and place for each setup but a medium one is nice because it can cover all categories like a jack of all traits but a master of none
This is a great video. To make it even better. Put in your written information below or a new video of the full reel, rod names, where can we get them. Little stuff like that because words dont come over video well sometimes.
Nice video thank you for the sharing your fishing gear and setup. Looking forward to 2 day trip in September on the ranger 85 good fishing.
Thank you, good luck on your trip!
Perfect timing. I’m on my last quest, to get my heaviest set up at evike. Thanks!
@phantomrider07 no problem!
Started watching you when you went to Freedom few years back. My first season and we are going (Freedom) next month.
My set up
Lexa 400 30# ugly stick
Shimano 2500 LD #65 Mega PE 3-6
Shimano Ocea 4000 #80 Mega PE 308
Big Question is?
Should or must I really get the
JMMR PE 8 with 80# also when I already have the Ocea 4k?
@phantomrider07 the ocea jigger 4000 is a rice reel however on the bigger models it suffers in drag. I think having a Monster Game is a luxury however. You can 100% try jigging with your ocea first and see if you like it. Most important piece of the setup is the rod but it is closely followed by the reel
This is super informative !!! Thankyou Derrick for posting !!!
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it
Curious what you think about the United Composites Jigging rods compared to others you spoke of in the video. BTW- new sub! Great job on the video.
@patsparks8731 I like them if you can find them at a good price
Excellent video and info.
You guys should check out United composites new line up of GPXJ jigging rods and blanks! These things are amazing! 🤙🏻 paired with a badass Penn Torque 2spd reel 😮💨 no other setup beats this.
Just picked one up.. hoping to break it in Saturday 😎
You covered a lot of ground, Derrick! I read through the comments so I know where you are at. This place was totally off my radar. I used a Penn 25N flylining and nearly got spooled. What would you suggest just incase the big boys are chasing your bait?
A very popular reel from penn that people have been using for the bigger bluefin are biting bait is the Fathom 40NLD. Sinker rig and flyline reel, it works for night as well
Thanks, Derrick! I was thinking about that reel also, but I saw that the Okuma Alijos AJ-16ll could hold 750 yards of 80# braid and has a max drag of 48 lbs. (although pricier) I'm just trying to find the smoothest braid and the smallest diameter monofilament, so I that I could swim a bait more effectively?
Exactly, smaller line allows the bait to swim better
@@jtuck682 Alijos line of reels are awesome. The 16 is pretty good size, you can also check out the 12.
Nice break down! Thank you braddah 🤙
No problem, hope it helps!
Great content as always🤙🏼
@@fishingmaestro thank you!
Very Intuitive video! How much drag do you put on the #100 plus tuna?
@@maedatyson9143 I normally run 23 lbs of drag at strike so that when I'm at full my reel should be around 28lbs
Appreciate a very good video. May I ask what is the name of this tackle shop and location please? Thanks
@@tnphung evike.com in Alhambra CA
Thanks bro, where is this located?
Hello Derrick... Great Vid. I have a question about the assist hook. So the hook you use is Suteki Maboroshi 4/0 and Suteki Crafter 4/0 on the natureboys (wiggle rider 300g) and (west coast jigger 300g). In your opinion are these hooks big enough for 80+ BFT? or should we use larger hooks for the larger fish? Please let me know your thoughts. Thank you.
@rainesf231 I've used the maboroshi 4/0 on 160lb bluefin on tight drag with no issues. I've had good success with the crafters too, I honestly think if you are gonna change out your hooks often the maboroshi is fine but the crafters will hold out longer
@@DerrickVan Thank you so much. Because of this vid. I went down to Evike on Monday and bought some gear. Now I have to go back. lol
Sorry I have another questions. For the Wiggle rider 300g should I use twin assist or just one assist top and bottom? For the WestCoast would you recommend twin assist on the bottom only? I also got smaller Wiggler riders 265g and 190g. Do you think Single hook top and bottom 3/0 Maboroshi or use the 4/0 too? I wish I could just meet you there and get your advice in person lol. Sorry for all the questions.
@@rainesf231 I like running top and bottom on long jigs and twins on the bottom for shorter jigs. I noticed the top hook prevents bluefin from choking the jig because the top hook catches the top of their mouth. The 3/0 works good for the 190, for the 265 I would still run the 4/0. I'd run your single hook on the top
@@DerrickVan Thank you!!! Man this helps. I'll have to exchange and rebuy some things. lol Probably head out Friday.
Thank for the info Derrick. I won a Jigging Master Gangster Stick #5 5'8UH (PE5N/PE7) spinning rod on a Evike sponsored trip. What reel & line would you pair with this rod. Would this spinning setup be a good choice for the local Bluefin Night or daytime fishing? Any info would be appreciated
@AndyArellano-zr5uz I would try out a underhead reel, evike has some on red tag. I just hopped off a JM sponsored trip where the JM crew was using underheads and I am impressed. I would run it as a daytime bluefin and light night time setup. I'd run PE6 line on it like the Varivas line I talked about. Super valid option for the bluefin!
Your 2 hr limit vid is SICK!
How long is your mono topshot?
Thanks
Thanks! I use 4 arm lengths
Is Hook-YS-MAG-FLASH-4-4-0 the one you recommend for the 300g wiggle rider. Which hooks for the HD jig, you said the double, but I am not sure which one it is on the Evike site?
@jackg8478 yeah that's the one. The double is under twin assist phantom hook on Evike
@@DerrickVan Which hooks for the shorter daytime jigs such as a tungsten 180 or Zakana? Some folks like a treble hook.
@@jackg8478 I tie my own for daytime. I have been using the sj-51 5/0 and 7/0 hooks from cultiva
Since I'm knew at jigging, I have no idea what you are saying in this post. Can anyone make a glossary of all these new words, please?
@@dojo1249 which words do you need help with?
The rating on the rod is for jig weight. Nothing to do with how much you can pull bigger fish as you are really fighting them straight to your reel mostly. Am I right ? I custom wrap my Blackhole 250 around 2017, it can dance 200- 300g lure nicely during the day, and not going back to broom stick just too painful to land them big ones.
@Bernardovillanueva yes I mainly base it off of how it works the jig. On the larger fish I do like a stiffer rod but generally the 100 lber range I fight them with a medium jig action rod and it does fine
Hi, Derrick any word, news on the proto type jig you had aboard the freedom?
Couldn't fish it that night. Would have to save it for another trip
Dose it strain you because you can’t use the rail? I read something about fish coming in quicker on theses rods or something than a traditional rail rod.
Not at all, sometimes when I need a break, I rest the tip of my foregrip on the rail, then get back up to fighting in my arm pit. They definitely come up faster with these shorter rods
Mono top shot, or braid to short leader?
Hay Derrick can you tell me where or how you bought your reel the maxel transformer 70
@01mchan ebay has a few
@@DerrickVan thank buddy we are going there next weekend to fish how is fishing right now
@@DerrickVan I look they don’t have the 70 how did you special order your or where did you order it from
@@01mchan I got mine from ebay
@@DerrickVan hard to get I need to find away to pre-order one really want one like yours the transformer 70
That’s a nice reel but at close to $1000 here in Australia, it’s pretty damn expensive!
Where are you using the solid ring? I am thinking at the top of the jig. mono to solid ring to split ring to jig?
What knot are you using to tie to the jig (solid ring)
I have it on the top of my jig. I use the chain knot to tie to my solid ring
I like that shop Hella KOOL🤘🤘🤘🎣🎣🎣🎏🎏💪💪💪✨️✨️✨️
@@bobwire3310 they are super loaded with cool jigs
Any idea all that parts needed to change the shaft and arm?
@freddyboi $150 from the parts at Evike.com, they don't have everything in stock right now but it's a few screws and a few bolts extra. I've done 2 of them so far it's a pretty easy swap
@@DerrickVanthanks. I was browsing early and saw they didn’t have everything so I thought I’d ask. Just got my reel and wanna do the changes. Remember what shaft # you used?
🔥🔥🔥
Good job
Thanks
Way to go bro! Thanks for all the info! Next Id like to see a tutorial of how to fight a fish Derrick Style. Your fighting style is so affective, but it's kind of hard to tell exactly what you are doing.
Will do!
I tried those JiggingMaster knockoffs, Maxel, tons of issues.
