Oceanside Tackle and Marine - New- "Deepwater" Jig Rods!
Theres no doubt "deepwater" bottom fishing or jigging is gaining in popularity especially with Kaseys awesome WAFM article just being released.
Sometimes it can be physically demanding out there but the rewards are well worth it. One way to reduce that effort is to look at your fishing gear indepth. One thing that is often overlooked is rods, technology has taken us forward and rods now are being purpose built & more advanced!
Honsu & myself have looked hard at whats New and available on todays market. Through Honsu's wealth of knowledge, he has fine tuned it to a few rods.
One standout rod that i've just bought for myself and we are now stocking is the HR "Top Gun Deep" jig rods. These rods are 5ft in length which gives the angler far more leverage. The rod is rated to PE8 (80lb) and 500gm+ jigs. They have quality components like Fuji SiC guides and tip, Fuji reel seat with locking nut and heavy duty Fuji Gimbal etc.
These are the "BIG GUN" rods for deepwater jigging/fishing but been parabolic action it does all the hard work for you, NOT the other way round.
Normally $499, FW Special $449 (Available in Overhead & Spin)

G'day Ryan, Out of
G'day Ryan,
Out of curiosity what kind of reel do use for the deepwater jigging? In the 300m+ depths where line capacity and reel weight have to be taken into account just wondering what you are using - my Z40 won't have anywhere near enough line for the job...

i use the Shimano Tyrnois
i use the Shimano Tyrnois for those depths. Even jig with them.
ALso use a Okuma VS80 with 50lb braid which holds about 500m on it. Doesnt do the 400m mark but does the 200's pretty well.
Need a good rod to match tho and this one looks the part.
Im only running 50 and 65lb braid, but on PE8 rods.

The rods are there to jig the heavy jig or hold the heavy sinkers. The rods are 80lb but you dont have to fish 80lb.
500m of line will let you fish up to 350m
Tyrnos will hold plenty of line.
