Default Jigging for Seabass

I've been hearing rumors that the Seabass have been feeding on sandeels and jigging has been producing well. Question is, do you use the same diamond jigs used for blues/stripers, what technique is used ie long sweeps or short jigging action, tube or tubeless, teasers, etc? READYYY... SETTT... GO!!

couple years ago we read the sh!t out of em but they would not really punce on clam we caught a few & the were vomitting up sand eels i put on a 1oz ava & proceeded to get hit right away everyone switched up & it wasn't fast & furious but we were catching more then on clam. Long sweeps & short pops worked best

inshore I use t-hex 1-3 oz to jig for them...blue/stripers and sometimes an albie will hit it too.....offshore can use the regular diamond hammered jigs.
