Re: Micro Jigging
Good size kingy! How light is your gear? I pulled one about this size in Eden NSW on PE4 and it gave me lots of grief.
Great job landing one on micro jigging outfit!

Re: Micro Jigging
I'm looking to expand my micro jig collection now (currently have 1 haha, lost the others at Bermi).
Everything I had worked, I'm wondering what jigs other people use that they have sucess with (or are cheap and successful haha)

Re: Micro Jigging
It depends on your definition if micro jigs. I've seen people calling 80-100g jigs micro. To me, anything less than 40g is deemed micro, whereas 40-60g are light jigs.
Will post some photos when i have the time

Re: Micro Jigging
I have heaps friends who do this kind of stuff land based in warmer water. I have ordered a shore based microjig rod and i should have in about 2 weeks and from there the experimentation begins
In the warmer months it might be a fantastic way of catching pinkies .
Any suggestions on deeper water thats accessible land based ?
This will take some amount of experimentation. I asked Chris at the Compleat Angler in the CBD if any of his clients had done something similar and he didnt know of anyone.
