Slow Pitch Jigging in the Florida Gulf – Fishing with slow pitch is a big hit among deep drop anglers. These jigs are highly effective at catching fish. In fact, slow pitch jigs are proving to be more effective than nearly any other bait you can drop to the ocean floor. This type of jigging is very popular in depths from 70 to 700 ft. Some anglers fish the jigs in 900-1000 ft of water. One thing is certain, you won’t be sorry if you choose a proper slow pitch jig with matching rod and reel for the depths chosen to fish. Doing this will make many very memorable deep drop fishing trips! Find the jigs and all equipment needed for slow pitch jigging at Johnny Jigs. We highly recommend it.
