Need new wire jigging rods

[sokinwet]

Call me "different" but I've love wire jigging and have since I was a kid.... when it was 100 ft. of wire, a smilin bill w/pork and another fish in the box....all day long! I prefer a Penn jigmaster, lamiglass blank and roller tip. Haven't tried the new SN II guides but I just broke a carbaloy guide so it might be time. I also learned to jig when it was rod butt under the armpit and jig...can't quite get the hand n' glove thing...one of those old dog new trick things!

I'm the same as you John, I enjoy wire !
Though I do it, I'm not a big fan of trolling with rods in rod holders.
Wire lets you be directly involved all the time, even more so with the hand n ' glove method, especially when you feel the hit of a large fish all through your arm!
I tell a few when I wire line jig,
My goal is a separated shoulder !!!
