For some time now I have been reading many, many posts about the success that various anglers have had jigging for demersals with either plastics or metal jigs. I have been slowly acquiring a combo consisting of a Demon Blood CJ64, a Twinpower with 30lb braid. All I needed was the right jigs. Oceanside advertised a new supply of Fankys so went in and bought a bagfull.

I managed to try these out in 40-50m on Monday out the back of Rotto. First drop and bingo a dhui in less than a minute. Undersize to be sure but still a dhui on metal was a big first for me. Guys on bait got 2 undersize. High 5 on the jig catch and all fish were released carefully. Now I just need to do it again to prove it wasn't a fluke. Thanks to Allboats for the advice on the Demon Blood and Oceanside for the Fankys.

A couple more jigging trips local and then hit it hard at Coral Bay and CarnarFin. Really looking forward to picking up a few more on the jigs.

cheers
