P-line Jigs:-

Do you use these for Lings etc.?

Do you like them?

What colors do you like for r/snapper, Lings and big Rockies/
 
Laser Minnow - 4 oz, my daughter chose to use it because it was pretty and shiny. I used my favourite LARGE swim bait on a 6-oz lead head. She proceeded to kick my but for well over an hour on Lings and rockfish in Barkley Sound last summer. So bad I ended up switching. They definitely out fished rubber that day!

I make all my own jigs and find nickel plated jigs out fish just about any coloured jig, and I've had salmon hit them when jigging for bottom fish. But when it comes to lings I find a brown or white swimbait if used right vastly out performs any jig.
 
Harbour chandler has some good selection, i picked up this 6 ounce pline a while ago ...should be good to go for may first :)1

There's another jig,too, sort of like that that Harb Chan carries.......damned if I can remember the brand name.....:confused:

The Laser Minnow is the one I would choose....I haven't tried any of their others ...although I hear the Diamond jigs are pretty good.
 
Some buddies were going out ling cod fishing and I gave them my go to jig to try. I get this as a text 40 minutes later, lol. I think they liked it, got it at the chandler.

Ted - Right now I've been paying someone around a $1.50 per jig to nickel plate them, but I am getting ready to build something to plate one jig at a time. It will take around 2 hours to plate each jig, but at a much lower cost. Which jigs are you molding? I've mainly been doing 125 and 300g Perkins, and I've been working on creating a plaster mold of a 200g Stingsild (not Stingsilda) which is my favorite jig by far (has lots of surface area so lots of flash).
 
I currently make diamond jigs in 16, 20, &. 26 oz. cod jigs in 20, 26, & 32 oz, herring style in 13, & 20 oz, lead heads 12,16,& 24 oz. don' t really make these to sell, but I do donate to friends for PR. I still have a lot to Learn about fishing Winter Harbour, so it makes good relations.

Tried these yesterday for Lings....

wasn't very impressed.....they keep catching the hook in the leader when they are jigged up and down and you can't shake them free......then the hook that is caught nicks the leader plus you have to wind it all the way up to free the hook again...

Take off the bottom hook and put a couple of assist hooks at the top. No tangling (if you use heat shrink on the leaders to the hooks - and better yet use hooks with barbs on the outside of the bend) and a lower chance of hanging the jig on the bottom.
