Thank you Sir, very well explained, I am looking at this method now (now only) and will purchase soon. When buying it is important to go as high rice as you can for the simple reason that the angler needs to be confident that the odds are on his side and not on the fish side. Confidence is key, right to the last drop or cast, being confident helps the angler being more focus on how he does. Thanks

Having the rod correctly built on spline is critical wherever the guides are placed... Radial torque will wear you out trying to keep the reel upright with conventional setup. ?Why is this NOT brought up about rods?
@UserUser-zm3fo

Yes it is very important. Slow pitch rods use spiral (acid) wrap guides to prevent rod breakage due to line wrapping around a guide during pitch. In my experience spiral wrap is more stable. The problem is the guides are fragile and contact with the rail or fish swimming under the boat is worse with spiral guides.

so I went on your website and purchase an Elite rod. I will be fishing outside Miami and figured 250g will be sufficient in max 250' of water. I normally drift so current do not affect my line too much and if wind against current I drop a floating anchor to limit the water speed, I have been flat jigging the wrecks with 150g in 150 feet and did not feel I needed more, if 150g not enough I turn to something else. For now it will be rigged (please don't laugh) with a daiwa sealine 30 with upgraded carbon drag washers and power handle. If I like it I will invest more, I it doesn't work I blame the equipment and invest more haha...

Thanks so much for this breakdown! I'm a fly fisherman, but I'm now switching gears and getting into vertical jigging. Specifically, I'm targeting lake trout and Salmon in 50 to 150 feet of water. Jigs range from 1 oz to 2 oz (less than 100 grams). I think the application of slow pitching will crossover and be successful. As a fly angler, I am very familiar with acceleration of the rod in order to load the blank and, in turn, unload stored energy into the fly line. In slow pitch jigging, does the angler use the mass of the jig and resistance of the water to load the rod with energy by accelerating the rod upward? Once the rod motion is stopped, stored energy is transfered into the jig, causing the jig to be pitched or flung through the water. The ensuing free fall combined with jig characteristics entails even more voodoo! Am I correctly understanding slow pitch? In fly casting, matching the line's weight to to the rod blank is paramount. As I browse through slow pitch rods, I'm not finding anything rated for less than 100 grams. Some have suggested I just use a stout, fast action rod rated just below the jig weight I'm using. This would allow the rod to seemingly load under the weight of the jig, but I doubt that any old rod's ability to unload and unflex is adequate to pitch the jig. To me, the construction properties of a slow pitch rod blank are critical and more than a marketing scheme (as many tout on forums). I'm just unsure as to how to match a rod blank to the relatively light jigs I'm using 🤔

To be clear the bend in the rod isn’t assisting in fighting the fish? When you say you’re pointing the rod down you’re not letting it bend as much? Had heard that the backbone of the rod was important. If not for fighting the fish what is the significance of the strong backbone on the slow pitch jigging rod?
@JohnnyJigsTV
2 жыл бұрын
Michael, That is a great question. The back bone on a SPJ rod will help with three things. One being it will allow for a punchier action on the jig and faster unload and the second is fighting the fish. FIGHTING THE FISH? Yes, you can use some SPJ rods to fight the fish using proper technique. We try not to go over parallel to water as a general rule of thumb. In the range from pointing down to the water and lifting parallel to the ocean the back bone in the rod will do the heavy work. The soft tip of the rod is definitely not designed to fight the fish but the butt section will in some cases. Once the fish is off the bottom I will soften my drag, stop pumping, and point my tip toward the fish and fight it with my reel only. Lastly hook set. Because the tip is so soft the back bone or but section of the rod will play a big role in punching the hook in past the barb. Hope I answered your questions. Johnny

Hey Sean, It is very easy to break a slow pitch rod if you high stick or allow the blank to touch hard surfaces while fighting the fish. The rod is a tool for imparting a action on the jig NOT fighting the fish. So my answer is YES if you use a proper fighting technique (Fight the fish with the reel) you can catch a large tuna without breaking the rod.

The hollow blanks are more sensitive and have better action.

What do you use to protect your blank in the rod holder?

Very informative video. What are your thoughts about a 2 piece SPJ rod versus a 1 piece rod?

newbie here. Fishing out of Ft Myers in 30-40ft reefs would I use micro jigs for Mangrove and Lane Snapper? If so, which rod?
