Best Deep Vertical Jigging Rod

Kail’s Fishing Reports reported catching Smallmouth Bass using the Vertical Jigging Deep (20'+) technique and G. Loomis IMX-Pro Walleye Spinning Rods on Crane Lake. Additional comments from this report: "Use your Electronics to locate mid lake rock pile humps with fish on them. Vertical Jig the Rapala Jigging Rap on and around the hump. Use a short snapping jig stroke. I like to use a snap swivel at the bait and tie a 5 foot piece of mono to the fireline but you can use a small swivel to connect the line also. Check the last few feet of line often for nicks in your line an knots. Good Luck!"

Zach Corbin reported catching Walleye using the Vertical Jigging Deep (20'+) technique and St. Croix Eyecon Spinning Rods on Lake Erie. Additional comments from this report: "Caught them DEEP on the Canadian side. Jigging the bottom slowly in 40 foot of water as the fish awaited the mayfly hatch. 6 person limit in a couple of hours, they were biting good"

Kevin Langlands reported catching Walleye using the Vertical Jigging Deep (20'+) technique and St. Croix Eyecon Spinning Rods on Detroit River. Additional comments from this report: "Rig a Lunker City Fin-s-Minnow or your favorite soft plastic on a 3/4-1oz jig head with a stinger hook. 35-40 feet deep, surface water temp should be around 40 degrees"

Bryan Best reported catching Walleye using the Vertical Jigging Deep (20'+) technique and St. Croix Eyecon Spinning Rods on Castle Rock Lake. Additional comments from this report: "The walleye bite has been great over the last several weeks between Castle Rock Lake and Wisconsin Dells Kilburn Dam. Tuesday we landed 79 walleye and kept 5 in the slot. Kalin’s Google Eye Live Bait Jig with minnow remain top presentation."

Catawba Tuna reported catching Yellow Perch using the Vertical Jigging Deep (20'+) technique and St. Croix Panfish Series Spinning Rods on Lake Erie. Additional comments from this report: "Perch bite was very light on that day. The sensitivity in the St. Croix PFS70LXF was key in detecting the bite or subtle change in feel of the bait. The perch were keying in on rock piles adjacent to the deepest break line before the mud basin. Used baits on a tandem hand tied double spreader type rig with a heavier main weight on the bottom of the rig being a 3/8 oz bell sinker."

Kail’s Fishing Reports reported catching Crappie using the Vertical Jigging Deep (20'+) technique and St. Croix Panfish Series Spinning Rods on Rainy Lake. Additional comments from this report: "Fall is one of the best times for Crappie, use your electronics to locate a 30’ deep soft bottom basin. Drop to the bottom, bang thr Jigging Rap a few times on the bottom to attract attention and reel up just above the fish and start working you jigging rap slowly. Watch how they react to your bait, you should be able to watch on your normal 2D sonar or down imaging. You may want to tip the treble hook with a minnow head. If they don’t hit right away try playing keep away by raising your bait and trying to make them follow you. I like to use fireline with a short piece of mono with a swivel or tie the mono directly to the braid. Good Luck!"
