TheFishingKit, hopefully next time you will make video regarding on how to choose a right size of hooks, swivels, solid ang split rings according jig size or weight. Thanks. Mabuhay!
Great info! I find sliders are very efficient but need some high pitching or a couple of fast pitching then a pause . Should the slider slide backward, in the direction of a chasing fish, or is it a jig design mistake? I think the fish would get scared if suddenly the jig starts to move in its direction. What do you think?
Pre yung about sa current, paano kung current ng tubig ay malakas anong magandang jig (for slow pitch and fast), ang alam ko lang pag sa slow pitch, kapag malakas ang alon ng tubig yung mga long jig ginagamit nila pero pag walang masyadong alon yung medium at maliit ang ginagamit.
Hi bro, very interesting topic, especially when you switch the jig “upside down” for sliding effect. I was wondering about this trick on jig like rector jig. What do you think?
Another great video, im getting addicted to them lol. This might be a silly question, Ive started Kayak fishing and I was doing some vertical (parallel) drops with my jig, should I only use fast jigs for this, are fast jigs the same as vertical jigs and can you vertical jig (parallel) with slow jigs? Thanks mate
Hi Mark, they are all forms of vertical jigging - the difference is the presentation. You can use both on the yak, and they work - I kayak fish a lot too, and use slow and fast jigging + Tai rubber.
You know, that greatly depends on what you want to use it for. You can be using it for very light soft plastics and the line is different from when you would be using it for mostly metal jigs....so tell me exactly what type of fishing you are mostly into and we can figure things out.
@@user-br2py6ik7e realistically speaking, try with bait and see what species are there first...then when you know the size and the type of fish, thats when you try and catch them with artificials.
Do the weight of the lure matters in strong current ? I used 80 grams of slow pitch lure when I want action to fall and move slow, and 200 grams, long and slim jig for fast drop in a strong current and so for its action to maintain. Is this applied right kit?
the shape and weight of the jig matters as this gets affected by current. this also depends on how deep you are fishing. 80 might be enough if you are fishing under 100m more or less and the wider the jig is, the more it gets affected. So a slim 80g will go down faster than a wider bodied 80g jig.
@@TheFishingKit if you are ever in California, I have a boat here. Would love to take you fishing, California style! I fished in Vietnam, my home country, but not too much big fish.
@@drvoolittle :) cool, will give you a heads up when I visit. I fished with someone from California for a really long time, so pretty familiar with the style there. Quite unique!
You technically can, but it wont be sensitive enough to detect soft takes, and more importantly, it won't have the flicking action of the rod at the end of each pitch to give it the right action. The system is quite different and is a balancing act - get one out of balance, and it won't be as effective.
Ok, My fishing is mostly in kayak and looking to use a rod that can be used with both methods. Do you know any rod that can be use it in both ways? I jigging mostly 100' to 300'
@@wipe23 if the rod is long enough, you can stick with the long fall method, it should work - you will need really sharp thin hooks. I have tried this in the past when I was in a bind and it actually worked out quite well. Good enough for some friends in the Philippines to have used it for years before investing on a proper slow jigging set up.

That video will be part of the series - I will be making one specifically for hooks, so stay tuned :)
B4 watching this, I'm using slow jig with fast jigging technique and it works... I usually hook fish in the daylight but can't hook at night..
Good stuff!
Really great info as usual! Appreciate your knowledge it has advanced my understanding greatly.
Glad it was helpful!
Great video master...watching from dubai
Thanks and welcome
DUDE UR BACKGROUND MUSIC IS TOO LOUD. WE NEED UR TIPS. NOT THE MUSIC. GREAT INFO
Sorry about that - actually corrected in recent uploads.
Weird thing, when I was editing it the music wasn't really loud then, after upload, it is.
Thank you for some great info here. Appreciate it. Would prefer your it without music tho. A lot.
old vid. :) no music in the new ones.

Sounds about right. But waves and current are different. slim jigs work well in current and in very
deep water.
Master what is the good quality of braid brands you can recomend for jigging.? Specially for tuna hunting? Big game?
there are lots, but I use Momoi and JGK for the most part. These two have been in business for a long time and have their own factories.
Thank you Kit
Any time Shoj!
Salamat sa information permi boss. Asking for SHOUT shotel jigs? what is the best way to play to have optimized catch?
I'm not familiar with that jig - but from the looks of it its a mid length fluttering fast jig.
Thanks boss 😊
Also, if you can tell me what kind of jigg is the standard diamond jigg and how to use it ?
You can google "diamond jig" and se e what it looks like - you just jig it up and down without reeling or use it as a casting jig
thanks Kit, great stuff
My pleasure! Glad you enjoyed it :D
Wow, there’s a lot of good information about jigs, now I’m more confused
Actually quite simple. Fast jigs have action on the way up (when you jig) slow jigs have the action when they fall. the rest are specifics.
Are you saying that the benthos jigg can be used as a slow pitch jigg if rigged opposite 🤔
No, i ma saying it can be worked as a sliding fast jig if you rig it upside down
Hi bro, very interesting topic, especially when you switch the jig “upside down” for sliding effect. I was wondering about this trick on jig like rector jig. What do you think?
the rector is a slow jig, that trick only works on some fast jigs.
@@TheFishingKit thanks bro, but if we swapped the tag end on rector type jig, the action will be different right?
@@aquillae yup yup! :) Might not even swim right.

Thanks 👍 but rather look at their usefulness than how nice they are - they are tools. :)
I have light rod 2-18 grams so which line you reccomend and lures that match to my rod

@TheFishingKit pls advice fir sof silicones lures with jig head and for fushing with metal jigs
@@TheFishingKitwe realy have poor fishing maybe one or two fish max aday and sometimes nothing mostly from rocky shore sometimes frim the beach
@@user-br2py6ik7e realistically speaking, try with bait and see what species are there first...then when you know the size and the type of fish, thats when you try and catch them with artificials.
there are very advance techniques using bait - don't think that bait fishing is very basic - it is not.
what is the name of the longest jig?
Williamson Benthos
