The Folks at The Reel Seat in Brielle NJ let me try an assortment of Nomad Jigs for some nearshore jigging and it was pretty interesting to say the least! We tried some Nomad jigs ranging from 40-60g off the bottom in about 50 feet of water on some wrecks near the beach.

Replacement arrived!By the way, I did forget to mention that the original lure did have a decent strike however as most anglers will attest you can get a hit kzbin.infoUgkxCbNOWAGmn6nfbCbJDmasvBq7J38KZNw2 and fish will hang on and release lure. I used the replacement lure yesterday and ran thru a Shimano Waxwing, Kastmaster, Bobber (set to sink). I found the does run deep (I casting on the flats 3.5'). Make sure you adjust your rate of retrieve and rod tip angle (up) to prevent getting snagged on bottom. Used it a couple of times and action was very lifelike (looked like local bait fish for trevally), craftsmanship very good....however eyeball fell out. I asked for replacement and it is on it's way! It was very easy to change out treble to single inline hook.

[@FishandShipsOfficial]

I would smash the bottom on purpose depending on the target species sometimes, kicking up sand has been used by divers to attract fish for decades

[@mrfish49el]

First trip with slow pitch jigs in the Gulf this summer landed about 13 grouper.

[@paulfennell01]

I just picked up a jon boat with an electric old minn kota trolling motor, (got too tired of kayak paddling) I'm looking for tips on the skinny water of rhe Manasquan river - any tips for the next few cold months? Btw, if I ever see you in person I would ask for an autographed copy of my book I always carry "A Field Guide to Coastal Fishes: From Maine to Texas" even though you weren't the author, you sir are the authoritative master of catching these fish! Thanks for all you do, looking forward to hearing from you soon brother!

[@angrypatriot8791]

I've been slow pitch jigging for 6 years. Always offshore. I'd like to see someone slow pitch 20 to 40 ft, in a lake, bay, or inlet. I'd think it could work with 15g to 40g jigs. I've caught small Snapper, etc. in 50 to 60 ft but nothing shallower

[@ripptydevibes2581]

Other day mouth of raritan off the hook, we got into drop and reel porgy and weaks in 30' on 1oz metal with no tips. I was puzzled by how HOT the porgy catch was with no bait and too big of hooks yet we really almost missed no bites. The more I fish the less I use bait lol.

[@villagevillage2400]

Cracking video mate I’ll be trying out these slow jig over here in the UK for sure, we have a few similar species. I’ve never heard of putting rock salt on your squid strips - is that for flavour or to firm them up or something? 👍👍🐠🐟🐬

[@topdedge1117]

50 feet is pretty deep I go rock fishing all the time in shallow water and catch fish all the time but I’ll also go in 300 to 350 and catch nothing so it really depends what the bottom is like.

[@johnshilling2221]

First time halibut fishing off the west coast of Washington, we used the recommended rigs. A one pound bottom dragging ball of lead, a 3ft leader about 18 inches above the ball, and a large chunk of octopus. We drug these heavy A** weights most of the day until we each got our one-fish limit. With several hours left, I pulled out a piece of 3/4" copper pipe, 9" long, filled with lead, and a wire loop embedded into each end. A WIRE treble hook (the hooks will straighten because you will SNAG bottom) I was mocked and laughed at ($14 in mid 90's) until this jig at the bottom. Fish after fish after fish on every single drop! We had to take turns catching and releasing, because we wore ourselves out. From that day forward, we never went offshore without copper pipe jigs. We made them of various lengths and various diameters from 3/8 in to 1 in. From 4" in and length to 12" in length. Before the West Coast Lingcod population was decimated, a local told me that this is what the commercial fisherman used to catch lingcod. You should make some, or maybe somebody would supply you with some. Every species of fish in that ocean hit these lures. Pretty sure it had to do with positive ions because polished and coated with a lacquer or polyurethane turned them completely off. Shiny or corroded bare metal all worked the same.

[@bilalmeziane]

Hello man, I have question regarding spinning, can I use a 30/60 grammes rod with a 15 grammes surface lure ?

[@GCJetskiFishing]

Nice video, slow pitch jigs like that are what I mainly use, they are really popular here in New Zealand

[@mrfish49el]

Try giving the jigs a bit longer of a rise then fall. You'll get better action out of them compared to shorter snappier jerks.

[@p.w.7051]

Elias, was wondering if you had any thoughts about flounder gigging. Never got down to your area, but have spent some time in the outer banks. Heard quite a few locals tell stories about going out at night and gigging hundreds of flounder, often with the result that they couldn't even find the means to store most of it and just dumping the majority of the catch. Kind of solves the mystery of why they need to close the season now.

[@eddiekeeler9955]

I've been craving spaghetti with octopus, and then I watched you in this video land an octopus. Man, you made me hungry.

[@MRMIKE276]

I know they're delicious but man... I could never kill one since they're so intelligent.

[@prolific5627]

@@MRMIKE276 In California we have a species called the 2 ring octopus, they only live for 2 years so I don’t feel too bad killing them.

[@DirtFlippinCajun]

Cool vid. I fish south Louisiana in the Gulf of Mexico and have caught specks offshore on oil platforms while fishing for snapper and grouper in 175-200ft of water. Not surprising you caught a few deep.

[@artkitzmiller957]

Enjoy all the info you pass along, Thanks. I do have a question about the boots you are wearing. What brand are they and where did you get them?When I was in Hawaii every fishing store carried them but here in Delaware I can't find any> Can you help me out?

[@srhiser13]

::hooks blue marlin:: “Big toadfish?” 😂

[@eviljinsi]

I run similar jigs for bsb in the cape and slay them. I run jigs from 40g-100g for them and do well. I dont feel the need to tip the hooks at all. I did have a bsb chase the jig to the surface and jump out of the water which I thought was cool.

[@richardtoms9161]

Just wondering about your issues with the sonar unit is it the exposure to salt water that causes the problem or is it something else. I haven't experienced this with my unit it I only have access to freshwater here in the Midwest. I love your videos and am considering getting some of your swimbaits to use for musky and northern pike this coming spring.

[@aksfishing4480]

Hes not threatened. half its mouth ripped off. lol true northeast guy love it. Hey do uthink this method would work for fluke up here or just stick to gulp

[@josephparody9238]

Great videos. Just curious what beach or town are you generally fishing. Not looking for specifics. Lol. Thanks

[@charliemaddock3459]

Man I think you should use these jigs over a few seasons and maybe those trout will always be there !

[@wendyshambley9708]

Catch and Cook Octopus, or at least your favorite recipe for cooking octopus?

[@liltoasty]

Eli, you have to take a trip to one of the islands and fish. You don't need a fish finder you damn new can sight fish the entire time.

[@officialWWM]

You can catch anything on those Nomad lures. Everything eats them!

[@Tigerpuffer]

Wtf is that jointed crippled herring style lure at the beginning?? I've never seen a jig like that. Retro as fuck

[@ricolimorico3386]

Hi thanks for the vid. Q: do we use a floater and lead sinker in the line when we fish with jigs.

[@fishingbear69]

Elias I feel deeply if you were to focus a bit more with slow pitch fishing , you'll do very very well , not to knock you ,cause you're an excellent fisherman and I have been a subscriber for years , but be ware that's not a fall pitch jigging rod your fishing with , the lures are , but the rod is not. , again thanks for all your excellent videos..

[@slikisokus]

Love you videos. However, is every lure referred to as jig? These are spoons as far as I am aware. Jigs are soft (silicone) lures. No? Seriously, I never heard anyone referring to metal spoons as jigs. Can someone please explain this to me?

[@benskai2475akurfishing]

kren bro ide briliannya sukses selalu Tuhan Yesus Memberkati selalu

[@robertgerber2533]

Another great video with alot of things to comment about. I think that was the first time you got snagged and put it on a video. How long do you try to get it out before you break it? I think I try too long. You are a maestro with that jigging rod. I've been getting better every year since I started watching your videos. People comment on how good I am now. Now I have things to put on my christmas list for stocking stuffers. Thanks.

[@ianfalcon7310]

I’m the winter time I catch specs on 20-30 feet of water all the time. It’s kind of a heat pocket with heat coming off of a bigass concrete wall that acts as a conductor, I wonder if the water near the reef could be a couple degrees warmer, they’re really sensitive to temperature down here in south Louisiana

[@IngkaFishing]

It's amazing ... I love light jigging 👍

[@davidxtejada]

Can you tell me where you were fishing? SW Florida?

[@Ayo_Filo]

Hello sir im from Philippines i really love fishing im always watch your video because really inspiring but i don't have a fishing rod do you have old fishing rod sir can you give me one Please

[@gracesanchez6003]

I say it 100 times and you are the best kayak fisherman I have ever met. My respects to you

[@aquamenadventures4382]

Can i ask why do they remove the hook on the tail of the jig and retain the assist hook on the head only? Or should i retain the treble hoon ok the jig end? Any advice since im quite new to jigging. Im willing to listen and learn. Cheers

[@fantomphoenix6170]

Imagine trying to vertical jig with a fly fishing rod, that would be one hell of a fight

[@rivercitycarcare1266]

Hey mate. Manoli from Australia 🇦🇺, great video mate.

[@gabifishing642]

Beautiful video I enjoyed all your explanations ..Gam, I subscribed to your channel

[@gabrielgreen5295]

Hey thanks for all your videos. I have used so many of your techniques here in South Georgia and been successful, so thanks for this new one and all the content.

[@ansis8788]

Good fishing frend..strike good size..i like to see...enjoy you fishing

[@syedali5596]

No bait on these jigs cause it surely affects its motion

[@rayhaanpirbacosse7396]

Syed Naseeven lol Merci pu to conseil

[@ultimatejay]

Those jigs work great- we use them all the time here on the West Coast for all species

[@Tyler-sv4sw]

Are you showing fish on your fish finder there? Is that why your jigging there?

[@Moe572]

Try duo drag metal jigs :) they're insanely good and ofc major craft jigs. Those Japanese jigs are one of the best in the market.

[@Moe572]

They also work from shore 😉

[@Moe572]

And I just noticed you used major craft jigs haha glad you loved em

[@hardywiedemann]

We need an Elias tuna jigging in the kayak video. Give us what we need Elias!

[@lolynbstm]

What if using slow jig on a fast rod? Is it doable? Thanks..

[@gabrielduarte3904]

give the STORM or WILLIAMSON koika jigs in the 40 or 60 gr

[@eltonalbert5714]

Are you fishing over structure and if so , what type ?

[@dngendron]

A broken Lowrance... What are the chances of that.... 💯%

[@mikkofishingadventures7986]

good strike bro nice fishing spot and congrats for the good catch amazing happy fishing to you an always keep safe tynx for sharing

[@alsalt7664]

So let get this right I can only used this lure if I have a kayak ?? Or I can used this lure for surf fishing by the beach??🙃🤔

[@darenleeper1644]

I dont think they are for casting. I guess cant hurt to try casting out and bouncing it back

[@universegeckos3965]

Rip the flounder at 9:18 jaw

[@fvaldez714]

Lol it ripped jumping in the kayak

[@alvinmolleda9611]

Can I have some fish bite. I love jigging 😊

[@mitchelldabb3357]

I jig with 700g and after the day your done

[@henrysperling2099]

What is your opinion of adding a barrel swivel to the split ring on top to tie on your line.

[@stevenmabry9834]

I havent seen a need for a swivel unless in deeper water with a strong current that results in the jig trailing behind the boat. When verticle, in a managable current, increasing jig weight and decreasing line diameter is my go-to approach. Less is more, but a small swivel is certainly an option.

[@remystrikefishing]

Nice video.. Thanks for great info.. From Malaysia..

Hey Elias why are you fishing with these vs soft plastics? Just trying different stuff?

[@jonatanrodriguez3918]

Why did you return that sole?

[@chalkvelvet230]

You have been missing soooo much brother. There is no fish that you can not catch with slow pitch jigs.

[@andrewpaulstancer5704]

why do you not dispatch your catch rather than just leaving them ?

[@j.d.williams6882]

Hey Elias, are you fishing back in Wilmington area again. Been thinkin about taking my boat out and dropping some jigs. Nice vid brother.

Why you put meat on jig?

[@Playertherese]

Hi Elias!! Now this was an awesome video and really enjoyed this video. So did you clean and cook up that octopus? I know you ate those trouts lol. I wish I was down there fishing with you.
