[quote name='FWDavid' post='12957' date='Oct 31 2008, 03:47 AM']i'm new to jigging squid so i'm searching to see what type of jig is the best?
I bought the very expensive Yamashita and Yozuri squid jigs but I see people on the dock using different types of jigs... what are the best type of jigs in the Puget Sound region?
Thanks,
PS> I'm having no success jigging in Des Moines, Redondo and Tacoma Dock.. I've heard jiggin is good in Hood Canal area but what places are best for jigging?[/quote]
Jigging has not been that good on the East side of Puget Sound recently. The Bremerton & Port Orchard areas have been the best. Generally small weighted jigs 1/4-1.5 ounces, fish them vertically. Usually a fast jerk up, and very slow drop and you can feel them bump your line "jerk" and if you're fast enough you got them....
