RAPTURE spinning fishing rod and vertical jigging

Vertical Jigging is carried out from the boat and we use a well robust fishing rod, nowadays on the market we find rods and reels created specifically for this fishing technique, we find equipment of all prices so we can say that it is not a technique for rich people.

The particularity of this technique is the retrieval of the line, fishing is approached with a monofilament line where we are going to trigger the 'artificial called vertical Jig, the artificials are composed entirely of metal with a tapered body, just like a giant minnow but of metal with the assist hooks that are very large hooks connected to the artificial through a piece of 500-pound braided line and steel rings.

The technique

Once the fishing rod is rigged we will lower our line down to the bottom, and then pull the line back up by giving it pumping upwards and also letting the line come back down for a while to then raise the fishing rod and retrieve the reel at the same time.

Very similar to spinning fishing but with some variations, first we fish vertically and not horizontally, we need a boat and lastly the retrieval is completely different from spinning, while retrieving the line we need to inflict real pumping to the rod, not dry but in a more elastic but fast way just like you have seen in the video above, also because of the weight of the bait and the fact that we are fishing hundreds of meters deep so we will need a lot of physical strength!

During the retrieve we will have to alternate the types of Jerking, so called in jargon, they would be the twitches to the rod during the retrieve, in vertical Jigging we mainly have two types of twitches, the short Jerking that would be the short twitch while the long jerking is the long twitch, normally at each twitch we make 1 or 2 turns of the reel for the short while for the long we can make even 3 or more.

Vertical Jigging Equipment

The rod, as already mentioned there are many manufacturers on the market who have created their own fishing rods suitable for this technique, below we see a picture of a model of a vertical rod:

The rods can be two or three sections for a length ranging from 1.60 mt to 2.40 mt.

Designed and built to deal with extreme pulls in offshore spinning, with an eye toward the user, who needs lightweight gear to sustain many hours of boat fishing. The blank is a one-piece Alro Modulo CX Nano Carbon, with specially thick 8Thick Wall design), which engages the detachable, high-density EVA coated stock with rubber knob at the base to rest the rod in the groin during long fights. Fast, powerful rods for fighting Tuna, Lobster, Amberjack and Serra with large Jerks or Casting Jigs up to 100 grams in weight. Double-stemmed Sic rings, with the first one tipped to avoid line tangles when making the fastest casts.
