Hi Heath. Since this is for newbies I want to refine the discussion on braid selection ( 6:00 > ).
When looking for a good braid for deeper drops, especially with strong current, look at the diameter of the braid, not just the breaking strength, because nowadays diameter within a specific breaking strength class can vary widely.
Also look at the weave number. Typically you can find 4x up to 12x count weave, meaning the braid was made with 4 individual threads or up to 12 individual threads. Usually the higher thread count means a stronger line within a specific weight class.
For example a 15lbs 4x will often be thicker and more coarse than a 15lbs 12x.
Also, look at the smoothness of the weave. Some braids look like they could be used as a rope saw in a pinch while others feel as smooth as silk.
To sum it up, the smoother and thinner line will have less resistance, so if for example you want to use a 15lbs test braid, look for the thinnest diameter within the 15lbs class with a smooth, slick feel in order to help keep your jig in a vertical position. If you find the jig is still going off at an angle consider changing to a heavier jig.
Hope that helps. Great tutorial as always 👍
Thanks a bazillion for watching and adding this great explanation. Line diameter is definitely key when getting down there. I couldn't have explained it as good as you did here. I owe you one. Thanks again for always being here and taking the time to contribute and add some true value to the discussion. Sincerely, couldn't do this without you. Thanks again. Tight lines & take care ;)
@@SouthFloridaSaltwaterFishing my pleasure captain
I watch ALOT of fishing videos and I have watched a bunch of yours. You definitely have one of the most informative channels out there. You really help a guy like me who comes down to the keys for a month a year to get on the fish and catch them. A big Thank You! May your willingness to share be rewarded with even more subscribers!
If you do go to a day jigging how many kilo fish can you catch by jigging only ?
Another home run!!!

Good videos keep them coming.
7:35 in my opinion this is why slow pitch will be band. It is obviously a bait and snag technique. The fish gets curious but doesn't necessarily need to bite since the jigs are designed to sang and foul hook them.
Thanks a million for watching and sharing. You are correct, slow pitch is not too much catch and release. We'll have to see what the future holds. Regulations on the number of hooks per jig possibly. Thanks again for your support of the channel. I truly and sincerely appreciate it. Tight lines & take care ;)
Good Job with the video. Learned a lot. Thanks!
Fantastic as always!
Hi Alex, thanks a million for watching and always being here to support the channel. I truly and sincerely couldn't get this done without you. Glad you enjoyed the show. Thanks again. Tight lines & take care ;)
Hi Heath, I can't believe it's Sunday night already. This was a really good video. I would love to try slow pitch jigging sometime. I'm going to try a modified version, the next time I'm in some deep water. The pond next to the house has bass, crappie and sun fish. It's pretty shallow, so I can't try it here. Maybe when I go up to Lake Wappapello I can try it. It really looks like fun. I'm going back to NJ in August for a visit but I won't have enough time to saltwater fish. Hope Avi and the "Fishing Girls" are having a good summer. Hope you have a good week and I'll talk to you on Thursday. Have fun and good luck, Mickey
Hi Mickey, thanks for watching. I'm sure slow pitch would work in fresh water, it just hasn't been researched yet (I don't think). But, yes you need some deeper water. Hope you have a great trip next month back your old stomping grounds. All the kids say "Hi Mickey". Hope everything is good and everyone is doing well in your family. Thanks again for everything you've done for me over the years. Talk to on Thursday. Take care :)
Hi Heath, "Hi" to the family. Hope everyone's well. We're all good here. I want to thank you for all your hard work putting these videos together. We all learn a lot from them. Learning from an experienced fisherman really shortens our learning curve. Talk to you on Thurs. Take care and have fun, Mickey
thank you for this very informative video
Always adventure with Heath at the helm. Thanks again Ricky 💃🕺🏼💃🕺🏼🎶🐈⬛🎸

Thanks a million for watching and always being here. Glad you enjoyed the show.

Here we go
Thanks a boat for watching and always being here. You are correct. Here we go. It's about time to get out and start that summertime jigging fest. There's some meaty groupers down there just waiting to eat. Thanks again for all your support, I truly and sincerely appreciate it. Tight lines & take care ;)
I always enjoy listening to your videos.
I am in Thailand, and jigging here is not high on the list, and if you want to go out, impossible. This bay is drained, and the locals are not into it. The deepest I could get a boat to take me was 20-25 meters.
So I am preparing to move to the Philippines, but all I got is videos to learn from until then.
I do have some questions regarding your information:
(1) Why do you use a 40 lbs leader line and 30 lbs mainline? Should it not be the opposite? I say this because when I fished steelheads, my leader line was lesser than the mainline.
(2) I see that you use a solid ring on one end of the leader line that you attach to the lure. So you do not use a barrel rolling swivel in your set-up? If not, why?
(3) Don't braided line twist in the water, which if you did not have a barrel rolling swivel connected in the set-up, it affects the natural motion of the lure?
(4) Wire leaders to lures? Do you have a video on this procedure?
In closing, keep it real and keep jigging. God is good and all the time.
Thanks a million for watching, leaving some great feedback and asking some good questions. I truly appreciate your support for the channel.
My leader is always heavier than my main line. For example, 12 lb main line, I use 20 lb fluoro leader. Your leader is there to add strength and protection to your bait connection, and at the same time provide shock absorbancy to help set the hook.
I use a solid ring if the lure doesn't spin, except when slow jigging, I'll still use a solid ring then for a more stealthy approach. For lures like spoons, you gotta use a swivel, or you'll get a ton of line twist. braid does twist, yes, but if you have it on a conventional reel, the line is retieved in a straight manner, not a wrapped fashion as a spinner does, so this lessens the twisting.
Yes, I do have several videos that showcase how to make wire leaders, just lust up the planer trolling lure or the spoons and those videos show how it is clearly done.
Hope this info has helped answer some of your questions. Thanks again for you support. Tight lines & take care ;)
@@SouthFloridaSaltwaterFishing Thanks for taking the time to response. Again your videos are keeping it real, simple, and fun. Keep jigging and Hod is good and all the time. 🙏🙏
great information start to finish. ever use smaller tackle? 20# braid. 100gram jigs?
Yes I do have a lighter setup... However, my favorite depth is 200-300... So I tend to stay with #30 braid and 200g jigs
Hi Heath.
Enjoyed your video. I'm just getting into slow pitch jigging so this was very helpful as with others I've watch I feel comfortable getting out there and kind of know what I'm doing.
I just ordered a slow pitch rod which I will be doing a open box reval on my channel real soon. Just looking for a reel to match up with the rod now. Any suggestions would be great.
Tight lines.......
Thanks a million for watching and sharing. Slow pitch is ultra addictive. Personally, I would wait until you receive your rod, then go reel shopping. I'm biased towards Accurate reels, but Avet makes a great reel to.... then again there's Daiwa, Shimano, Finor.... too many to name. What you want is balance between the rod and reel, some thing that's not too heavy, yet has the line capacity you're looking for based on the jig weight range the rod can handle. You'll want a reel with at least a 4:1 gear ratio, don't go any lower. Hope this helps. Thanks again for your support of the channel. I truly appreciate it. Good luck in your fishing journeys. Tight lines & take care ;)
@@SouthFloridaSaltwaterFishing Hey thanks so much for responding so I bought a goofish rod the black ultra and I haven't opened it yet because I wanted to do a reveal on my channel so I'm just researching on some reels now that maybe I'd like to put on that rod but thanks so much appreciate your time getting back with me.
Why do I some time sees anglers rig their lines with different colors? Is it for determine the depth of your drop? Do they buy it like that or they made that up?
Yes. It's a measuring tool
Question: if you already have a solid ring fastening the assist hooks and the lure, why then have an additional solid ring at the end of your leader line, which forces you link both solids with a split ring..? I learned that you never tie your line to a split ring. Again, you're linkin two solid rings with a split ring, it confused me..
I like to have my SPJ jigs fully rigged... the split ring serves 2 purposes. First it connects the hooks to the jig. Next by having a solid ring on my leader. I can easily swap out jigs by utilizing that split ring. You are correct, never connect your line directly to a split ring. This method is common practice in SPJ. Hope this helps clear things up
