Deep Jigging

Love this time of year, drifting and jigging deep for a wide variety of game fish and table fair. Off one of my favorite offshore humps in Vineyard sound yesterday we got into some 12-15 lb blues, lots of black sea bass, picked up an nice fluke, jumbo scup and the occassional snagged choggie. Odd to not be picking up any stripers deep around these spots, usually I get some nice large early am before they move off, but not many this year. Fishing 3-4 oz jigs with my 7" split tails, love the shimano speed jigging rods for this, paired with a stradic 5000 and 30# braid; easy on the arm and very sensitive. Good eating last night and lots of vacuumed package black sea bass.

Used the new drift sock yesterday, which I picked up since the T-top and canvass have vastly increased my drift rate; worked great.
