Single Jig Fluking

Single jigging with small leadherds and GULP! off piers also extremely successful.

Nice vid Roger! I will use a single jig with the spinning gear, during times of light or zero drift speeds. But in the 65-85' depths in which I spend nearly all my time, if there's any kind of decent drift at all (definition: > .5mph) I go with the B/S Rig. A bucktail on the bottom and a big GULP! 6" grub or 7" jerk shad on the top 5/0 hook. All adorned with a fish strip or a long pennant of squid - or maybe even BOTH - which can be devastating at times. If the drift exceeds 1.7mph - then I lose the bucktail and go with a 6-10oz sinker on the bottom - the "true" original iteration of the B/S Rig!

Thanks Lep!

I'm pretty sure I mentioned in the video but to clarify...the way I jig is a shallow water thing. Once you get past 60ft...as far as you can cast you're still more vertical than horizontal, and out in the ocean even the lightweight jigs lose its advantage in my experience. They don't seem to want to chase UP in the ocean, maybe it's a predator thing but inshore/bays/estuaries a properly fished light jig can and do outfish hi/lo rigs 10:1 on the keeper fluke.

Good stuff,very informative video with Narration.Thanks for taking the time to make this and posting.
