Slow Pitch

[Dclark2]

Has anyone had good results with slow pitch Jigging for sea bass. Had good luck with conventional jigs but would like to give slow pitch a shot ..

Works great , keeps bait fluttering in the strike zone for a longer period than just using a vertical or bouncing application .

Another slow pitch question. How important is the rod/reel set-up?

[Dclark2]

Did some looking on the websites prior to buying and the rods run for different prices. Slow pitch usually have a slower and softer rod to give the jigs more softer action. JIgs have a different action (flutter ) vs the standard jig just starting out but I belive this is the up and coming thing to try. Search the web sites for info and videos plus the sponsers on this site.

Thank you Dano. I bought a few slow pitch jigs but didn't buy the set-up. Thought I would work a lighter rod first before I made an investment. Don't know how much this will impact their effectiveness.
