In NJ..I like to bucktail em..Spro type jigs are real popular.In fact u can barely find em now in glo or white. Chartruese is a good one also.. I use em anywheres from 3/4-5 once.
My favorite way is to cast back a light one on a spinner loaded with light braid.15 lb test.The spinner is quickly becoming my favorite way to fish.A Cabo 30 and a medium action 6'6" or 7' rod.Thro it way back..A little ball head a a gulp grub.Pop it of the bottom an feel it on the way down.The fish grab it on the fall...It is easier to make the small jig act more lifelike.Plus if u get hung (I like to fish the grizzle) u have a better chance of getting it back..
My standard rig is a 1.5 spro Glo copy (I make my own) on a dropper with a 5/0 hook an 2 big strips bout 12-18 inches from it...
If squid are around I'll use a small spro on the dropper 3/8 with a 1.5 /2 oz spro behind that..No big trailors on the jig they just fowl..
I like to put a 4"gulp grub on em.Maybe a small 3/8 x2" squid strip.The fish will come up an grab the small jig..Try it,,
