I recently added 3 sick jigsticks to my quiver! These were wrapped by Johnny in Irvine. They're great clean work! Highly recommend his stuffs. You can contact him on FB through 'Schoeberl and Son Custom Rods'.
2 of the rods are 10fters. The Ulua Skinny Butt and Calstar 100j mag. The 3rd is a 9fter White Tiger Honey Tip. All loaded great! The Ulua was more parabolic than I expected. If you're in the market for any of these models do not hesitate to pull the trigger. They're all great rods!
Enjoy!
Only thing I don’t like about this is casting towards a beach/people/parking lot. I know that spot at mothers beach and if you snap a line or knot that iron/lure easily making it the the houses or parking lot on the other side. I’d be fucking curious if some dude smashed me or my car with a 7x
I’ve caught some big bass under neath the very dock your standing on
100% braid to 18'' leader on the Penn ? thanks
Wondering how much is the ulua skinny butt for custom made
It really depends on components and who’s wrapping it
You must let be in a house with very tall ceilings. Haha. They great looking rods. Congrats and have a great time with them.
Long T. Tang lol
When I saw this pop up I thought "this guy is addicted to jig sticks " and then you said it LOL!!!!
Derrick Hamilton Haha yeah it’s bad when you’re self aware 😂
@@jigslingersfishingchannel3713
Haha!!!! There are worse vices for sure. I'm quite the tackle junkie myself. Just curious what do you do when the surface bite shuts off? (Fall and winter)?
Nice rod!
Derrick Van Thank you!!! 👍
I like my skinny ulua alot I paired it up with a torium 16 and like you said it like the Tady 45's but you can throw a 7x if you want to I was looking at that white tiger sure has nice action
jake bailey Right on! That’s what I was feeling about the Ulua SB too. Good to hear from someone who has used it. Thanks for chiming in!
That Torium is a great reel! Really underrated. The White Tiger 7x is really sweet! Check it out if you get the chance.
Nice rods. I used to have the white tiger 7x but I had the second gen which wasn’t as nice it was too stiff. I want gf100j mag and gf100j.
Also, what kind of braid is that and pound test?
I’ve always been against braid but lately have been messing around with it on different set ups. I’ve tried power pro, j braid and izorline. I know some good jigs guys are using the Seaguar thread lock 50lb hollow core now
MrJesus100 65lb izor 👍
Hello, can you tell me please what kind of brain blue line you use on your real , brand and Lb. thank you
Sergey F I usually use Power Pro and Jerry Brown. Recently I’ve been trying no name cheap brands. That blue one in this vid is one of those. $16 for 1000yds of 65lb on eBay.
New follower here! Amazing stuff I've been a jig stick fisherman my whole life old school, don't you mind giving me info on how I can get ahold of Johnny in Irvine? I can't find link & don't do Facebook, does Johnny have a shop Irvine? If so what the name? Thank you I appreciate it, nothing better then a killer jig stick, I need to see Johnny & have 1 made, great channel bud 👍🎣🎣
Joe Bass Right on buddy! Thanks! I reached out to Johnny to reply with info for you. 🤙🤙🤙🤙
@@jigslingersfishingchannel3713 thank you very much 👍🎣
What's the best cheapest jigstick you know of?
Turner's Californian 9footer 25-60 is $150 on sale. Other than that a calstar 90j e-glass. You could always wrap a rod. I just wrapped a calstar btg90j and it costed me about $170 with Fuji alconite guides. You don't need a rod wrapper just some notched card board boxes and a little creativity.
Itz Dr Chase You can find a used Calstar 90j for around 100 at tackle swap meets or the classifieds on Bloodydecks. There are deals out there. I picked up a brand new Phenix Abyss 1007 for about 130 a few months ago.
Good luck! 👍
Wondering how much is the ulua skinny butt for custom made
I was just at mothers beach yesterday, so idk when you recorded this but if I would of seen you there casting I wouldn't of connected the dots until today after watching this vid. Always looking forward to your vids.
Ulyses Martinez It was this morning bro! I’ve been wanting to do this and finally found the time. 🤙🤙🤙🤙
Do 10 footers cast further than 9footers or are they just for fun. I've never seen anyone cast a 10footer that far
girabaldy tasty I think if everything is equal the added length helps. By how much? Hard to say. If a person knows what they’re doing they’re gonna get the jig in the right zone whether it’s 9ft or 10ft.
@@jigslingersfishingchannel3713 I see what your saying makes sense.
John's workmanship is awesome, congratulations on you new jigsticks!!
Jeff Yoemans Thanks buddy! Gonna take the 100j mag on the Spirit this Friday! 🤙🤙🤙🤙
@Jigslinger's Fishing Channel best of luck Friday!
Jeff Yoemans Thanks brotha!
Your a really small guy wouldn't be surprised if you couldn't bench 135. I would only fish that ulua if I were you. That 100jmag puts alot of pressurs on the angler cause the pivot point is all the way to the tip.
Zach_ Kay I’m not too worry. I usually fish iron for yellows so it’s all good. It’s more important to me how they load jigs.
That Ulua is up for sale on BD. 😎
@@jigslingersfishingchannel3713 I'm just talking from experience. I have a 100jmag and decided to break it in fishing bait for medium size yellows and that thing killed me. I've been lifting weights for 2 years now and just hit a PR of 175..... I'm selling an ulua on bloody decks too right now. It's for $250, check it out not too buy it but to see the wraps. I wrapped it myself, and I'm actually wrapping rods for free right now. I started by posting an ad on offer up for free rod wrapping. I'd post it on bloody decks but people there are so opinionated and probably think it's some sort of scam.
Zach_ Kay Wow that’s very nice of you to offer your service like that. 👍
@@jigslingersfishingchannel3713 yah, I'm still in highschool and so I wrap rods for an hour after homework and it's relaxing for me.
Zach_ Kay That’s a great hobby to have! Stick with it! 🤙
The best jig stick blank is a graphite usa 9’ monster mag xh.
Kevin Schwinkendorf UC makes good stuffs 👍
sick rodssss
Johnny Yeah baby!!! 🤙🤙🤙🤙
How much does a white tiger 7x blank cost?
Zachary Katsouleas It depends on the gen and color. 1st gen will be the most rare and most expensive. 500 for that blank would be a good deal. Ironically, you can’t cast a 7x iron with it. It’s too light. But for smaller iron like a Tady A1 it’s perfect! Really fun rod to fish so it’s highly sought after.
You can get a 2nd gen for a good price. Mostly because it’s the least popular. It’s too stiff. That tip doesn’t have much action to load jigs properly. It’s like a broomstick.
The 3rd gen (current version) is great for casting heavy iron like the 7x. It comes in all sorts of colors. They’re usually 150-300 for the blank depending on colors.
Hope this help you out in your search.
@@jigslingersfishingchannel3713 thanks alot this was really helpful. Didn't realize the first gen can't even cast a 7x that's pretty funny. I'm looking for a 3rd generation blank. I haven't really fished enough rods to know what I like in a jigsticks and all my friends say that rod is a good start.
Zachary Katsouleas If you don’t want to spend too much on your first jigstick I suggest getting a used Calstar gg90j or a used Phenix Axis 909hj. They’re great all around jigsticks for about $150 used. Then after you’re addicted to throwing the iron you can start collecting all the others. Lol
@@jigslingersfishingchannel3713 I've been wrapping rods for a while now and gotten pretty good at it so that's what I'm going to do with it. Thanks though for the recommendation. Never owned a jig rod though cause I've always stuck to just fishing bait but I want to try to get into it.
Zachary Katsouleas Nice! Wrapping your own rods will make it a lot easier! 👍
What do you do when the summer bite shuts off (fall and winter)?
Derrick Hamilton Fall has some of the best fishing of the year. Winter can be brutal. After the rockfish season shuts down in December I usually trout fish Jan and Feb. Sometimes there’s a local yellows bite during that time like in ‘18. Hopefully it’ll happen this coming January.
@@jigslingersfishingchannel3713
Hopefully I will see you on the water someday. Thanks for sharing your adventure. Really enjoy the content.
Derrick Hamilton Thanks bro! 👍👍👍👍
if you look at the videos, you have the tendency to drop the rod to 3 o clock, parallel to surface. watch the deckhands they do not go that far down
Nolan Oshiro No matter how long a person has been fishing, whether it’s a week or many years ago, there will always be something new to learn and room for improvement. So I’m always open to suggestions that makes sense.
I’m curious to know why you think starting the backcast at the 3 o’clock position is not good. I hope it’s more than just seeing deckhands not do it.
Just as an fyi I can cast from a starting position of 90 degree angle at 12 o’clock all the way to 3 o’clock depending on how much room I have. On a boat there’s not too many opportunities to start at 3 o’clock because of space. On a dock like this video I have a full casting lane to start wherever I want.
Not the boats I go on. every deckhand I meet says to force the tip down they say to follow through till the rod is parrellel to the water. Watch the Western waters videos Evan salvay sticks that rod tip way down. Also Danny Wade who some say is the best jig fisherman in Cali ends his cast with the rod tip sticking down toward the water...it's just casting style anyway no matter what way you cast the jigs gonna go the same distance.
Or are you talking at the beginning of the cast he drops the rod down that far? Because hes casting on a dock so he's probably just gonna try to get as much distance as possible. But this dude knows how to cast on a boat. But your right having a big back cast on a boat isn't safe.
@@zacharykatsouleas9956 yep sometimes no room for 9 foot let alone 10, definitely parallel on follow through. if you can cast without starting with the rod parallel you can do both. notice how deckhands have the lure hanging to their shoulder or lower when they start
Nice sticks dude.
My dad has a white tiger it’s so sexy !!
Son and Pops Fishing It’s pretty badass 🤙
Jigslinger's Fishing Channel we gotta go fishing sometime 🤙🤙
