Re: Tile jig rigging opinion please?
Thanks for your input Captain Lou & Mike G.
Mike I really was hoping for your input as I tried to modled my jigs baed upon your pics & advice.
For me this is an experimental work in progress. My goals for rigging were:
1. Hooking the fish (converting bites to hook-ups & landing, no mtter what might bite the jig).
2. Avoiding rig and line twist. I know cod coming up from 200 - 300’, I imagine a tile of even a double header coming up from 500’ + could twist things up pretty good.
3. Quick / convienent jig changes.
I was concerned that if the jig didn’t come rigged with a swivel on top that a swivel tie off might adversly effect the jig’s action. I know a lot of highly expereineced and effective jiggers who are adament that a swivel on top tie off of diamond jig screws up it’s action and negativley impacts catching.
For thease reasons I put a swivel between the jig & each hook. I will place a clip on the terminal end of rig and clip directly to the eye of the jig.
Is this correct thinking? Any feedback or corrections?
Thanks again!
