Is this pretty much what you all use for jigging?

yeah i have a couple irons that i have yet to use but i will probably in the next couple fo weeks. thanks for the feedback gents. its appreciated as usual.

I'd save the irons till you get the drop & retrieve technique down to a science in the kelp.  I've lost my share while learning.

man! this site is going to save me so much money via the advice given lol. thanks guys
ok seriously though i have to get back to work... haha

Work's over rated 

LEAVE ME ALOOOOONE!!!!!!!

On irons, cut off the treble hook and replace with one larger single hook.  Gamakatsu makes single crimp on hooks, simple and it will save a few snags.

 thanks for that, you talking about the basic siwash hooks that you can just attach yourself?

Yep ... those ones. 

I prefer the straight treble for iron, ime there's a higher hook up ratio and that far exceeds the value of a couple lost jigs. I usually swap that little steel treble out for a larger sized bronze hook (owner or mustad).  Save the plastics for the kelp.

+1, more hook ups and its easier to straighten out the bronze treble if need be. Saves $$ on iron.

ahhh the bronze i see i see. so after the straightening of the hook just replace it or snip that one hook off since it has lost its backbone as far as strength goes? or can you usually get away with re bendinging it back to wher it was originally and will that still have enough strength back in it to catch another one?

come on down to fishermans warehouse of de anza in cupertino if you ever have any questions about rigging rod reels or anything! take care angrybeever out
