Today I want to talk about the difference between these two types of fishing. For the past few years there’s been a new emphasis on the benefit of bottom fishing using butterfly type fishing jigs, there’s no doubt that it’s highly effective and you can have good success in all depths of water anywhere from 50 feet to 450 feet. The fun in jig fishing is you’re using lighter tackle using smaller reels and shorter rods that makes it a big challenge when you’re hooking big fish on that type of tackle. To enhance getting the jigs up and down most reels are spooled with power pro which enables you to get better action on the jig itself. Benefit of using power pro can you can feel the bite and the fight. Jig fishing is also flexible because you can adjust the weight of the jig to the depth of water you’re fishing in, so that you can fish in all depths successfully. There are some drawbacks to Jig Fishing due to the amount of effort it takes jigging up and down through the water column. Its fun until you don’t get a bite after a few try’s especially in deep water 200 feet plus, The hotter the weather and the more effort it takes to get a bite Jig fishing can lose some of its luster. But in most cases, it’s an excellent way to fish for anglers who want a little more challenge in their fishing adventure.
Live bait fishing is also a very effective way to catch large and hard fishing species. Live bait fishing is also much easier with the non-experienced angler to have a decent shot at a big fish. When we are live bait fishing we set up the tackle to the targeted fish species and make sure our anglers know what to expect. My mate will take the time to explain how, what and why we are using the live bait and fishing techniques to hook a fish when they bite. Another benefit of live bait fishing we can use different baits preferred historically by the fish we are targeting. That’s why we try to bring a variety of different species of bait fish on every charter. Every day is different and so is the appetite of the fish we target each day. So every day depending on the type of charter that we may have, we will do a variety of styles to make every day a great adventure. Well that’s all for today come back from time to time to our site we’ll try to keep our blogs coming with interesting topics as the season progresses.
