It might be a little light to properly work a 24 oz jig. I've never gone that high. A buddy using the same stick was using a 14 oz crippled herring and it seemed OK, but close to the max.

If you mean 24 oz sinker with bait, it should be no problem -but I haven't used that much on mine so I can't say for sure.

There is plenty of backbone, but since a good jigging rod needs some tip flex I don't know of any that will be best for 5 to 24 oz. For vertical jigging, this rod seems best at 5 to 14 oz.
