And on those bits of string does the hook not move away from the fish when a bite occurs? Or does the fish gulp in the whole thing rather than bite at the lure ? 29 minutes ago, Saintly Fish said: Why does the hook attach to the top of the jig and not the bottom eye?

Can I suggest a quick read of the Jigabite Slow Jigging Article? This should answer 90% of these kind of questions.

Just read the article in bite-sized chunks if there are too many words for you in one go 🤣 Dicky 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn’t read the whole article because I’m not overly interested in yet another form of fishing. The question about the hook was just an off the cuff question. If it hadn’t of got answered I wouldn’t have lost sleep! Andy135 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's fair enough - makes sense for you to master the art of dog-fishing first before moving on to more challenging methods 😉 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonnyswamp Posted March 10, 2021 Author Share Posted March 10, 2021 I likey I'm going to use my 2 speed Fathom 15, or my 12 for the first couple of trips (if I ever get down to the south coast) Then decide if it's worth the extra outlay of a high end reel Bought a cheapo rod from tinternet and will do the same with that, if I get on with the style of fishing I will get a better outfit In reality, if I catch even one decent fish, I'll be straight on Terry's website buying next years Christmas present to myself I think I'm up to about Christmas 2028 at the minute Andy135, Saintly Fish and suzook12 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saintly Fish Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 I’m guessing this is a bit too much rod for slow jigging?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
