Hi, by yoyo jigging, do you mean bouncing up and down under the boat? I have nothing against spinning gear for casting and retrieving. I’ll give it a try. If you ever take paying guests, please let me know. I’d like to learn. I have a Steiger 255 on order, twin outboards, coming in July. I’d like to learn more about fishing in the north. My prior experience was Chesapeake bay in a small boat and kayak/surf fishing.
Yes so the "old school" style of just bouncing the jig up and down with long sweeps of the rod tip. Works very effectively, especially on bluefin near the bottom. Bouncing the jig in the mud mimics a sand eel. Also a nice break when you are exhausted from speed jigging.
I hope this inshore yft bite isn't something cyclical, we're going on what 5,6,7 years of this, fish just keep getting bigger too. Although the fall night chunk bite isn't anything like it was in the 90s, hard to figure.
Yeah then you also have the NJ/NY giant bite that’s like the 80s too that has come back. Then you have the wind farm surveys to worry about too… I really hope this doesn’t get ruined
I usually do about 15 ft or so, I've caught with much shorter but the longer length gives you some abrasion resistance and ability to cut back if it gets chafed.
how do you like the Onslow bay? is that their 27? Have a 2008 23 regulator, think you used to run one from some of your videos. Cant stand the FS. Consider Onslow bay for my next boat.
Yes I had a 2001 23 Regulator classic, great boat. This is a 2016 Onslow Bay 27 Offshore Edition. I think it's the best under 30ft center console on the market. The ride is fantastic and the build quality is top notch. I have no complaints about my Onslow.
@@CFalicon could you post some more running footage. be interested to see it in 2-4 spread at 6-8s. I have a twin Yamaha 25 cape horn, curious how the difference is. How much do you have to adjust the trim tabs if people move around while on plane?
Great informative video!! hopefully one day I could tag along with your crew.
Great video - thanks for going over your gear
very good video to watch, this is one of my dreams to fish tuna with a fishing rod good job guys. 👏👏👏👍👍👍
Thanks for posting this, I’m new to the tuna game and appreciate the tips.👍

What size hook and what size swivel are you using for the 120 gram jigs? Love the videos keep them coming!!
I'm using the BKK Stainless BB Swivel JS #4 and BKK Deep Jigging hooks in 9/0
Looking forward to some new duck videos this year
Hi, I use mostly small conventional reels with 6-7 foot rods. Do you see a problem with that for jigging.
No that should work fine. It’ll be harder to speed jig but for yo-yo jigging it’ll work great.
You go girl!
Very informative video! What length of 60 lb flouro do you use on your jigging setups?
I usually do about 15 ft or so, I've caught with much shorter but the longer length gives you some abrasion resistance and ability to cut back if it gets chafed.
Great video. Just starting to try jigging for Yellowfin off the SE Louisiana coast. What brand, styles, weight of jigs do you recommend?
Reel size and pound test?
8k and 10k Shimano twinpower, 50 and 60 lb braid, 60 lb fluorocarbon leader
Thank you, what size leader do you recommend? 24”-36” ?
Thank you
For jigging you generally want to do 15-20 feet, for casting whatever length keeps the leader off the spool while casting
Sick video , what jigging rods do you like ?
Black Hole 250 and 350g, Centaur constellation, shimano type J and grappler are all great options

Crowded? You can walk from shore to ship at 18 miles and walk back on different boats without getting your feet wet.
