Thread: Recommendation for a slow jig set up

Evening,

There’s a few guys on here that have a few clues on gear so thought I would pick some brains.

After a nice slow jig setup.

What do I want and why?

I’m pretty fussy and like nice gear. Think Trinidad’s etc

Forgot to add. Hauraki gulf, coromandel and Raglan is where it will be used mainly

Any idea which style, inchiku/kabura, slow pitch or microjig, or a bit of everything?

Yeah, great question and I hadn't really considered it.

Is there such a rod that will let me get away with a bit of everything to a decent level?

Sweet. Is that a pretty high end setup? I’ve been out of the fishing game for a while?

Yeah good quality for sure, just the old buy once cry once deal. Im sure shimano have a good bait caster equivalent too

I can buy it, then sell it to you for $2k, then it’ll seem like it’s way more high end.

Yeah, that looks like a good setup. Top end before you start getting in to silly money for custom rods. Should cover most styles apart from microjigging. Personally, I like small, light reels. This is finesse fishing, the gear is not designed to stop kingfish dead in their tracks before they hit reef.

Update. OA Bender and Saltiga 10 showed up today. Pretty happy
