Micro Jigs

Micro Jigs require some knowledge to be used effectively. You need to know the water current and depth where you’ll be fishing, and also the target species. When used correctly, micro jigs are a highly effective method of targeting fish in any part of the water column.
When it comes to choosing the weight of a jig you must take into consideration the water current and depth, as it’s vital that you have the lure working vertically in order to work effectively and conserve your energy.
Once you’ve determined the weight, it’s time to think about jig type. Jigs have many profiles and lengths and different species typically go for specific types. It is important to find a balance between using the lightest weight possible so that the action of the jig is natural, and having sufficient weight to allow the jig to reach the bottom, keeping the line and jig vertical.
Luminous accessories like squid skirts and luminous line have become very popular accessories when using jigs. Luminous tackle takes in UV light and emits a brilliant glow, which is great for attracting bites in deep waters that sunlight won’t penetrate. A quick charge up with a light allows these lures to become glowing beacons that will attract the attention of any nearby predators. 

Slow-pitch jigs 

Slow pitch jigs are centre-balanced, with a broad profile that allows the jig to flutter enticingly on the fall. Slow-pitch jigs are typically used for demersal fish species, such as coral trout, red emperor and snapper. These fish can’t resist the jig’s slow fluttering action on a slower retrieve. 

3 Tips for successful jigging
1.        Always use a sounder or fish finder

As it’s important to know the structure and depth of the water bottom when working with certain jigs,we recommend always using a depth sounder or fish finder.

2.        Move the boat to keep your lines straight

You need to keep your line vertical, especially when working with metal jigs, so it’s important to move the boat backwards and forwards to keep the line aligned correctly.

3.        Use coloured braid
Consider using coloured braid where the colour changes at regular intervals, for example every 10m. Fish don’t always sit on the bottom, and if you get an initial bite in 40 metres of water, with coloured braid at 10 metre intervals, you know that if you go four colours down that you should be getting the bite.
