How To Tie Slow Pitch Jigging Double Assist Hook | Johnny Jigs | Offshore Fishing | Jigging Hooks
This is a video a lot of our subscribers have asked for so here you go. How to tie slow pitch jigging assist hooks is a lot easier thank you would think. Ideally before heading offshore fishing you tie these hooks at home. I like to have a stack of 15-20 assist hooks ready to go.

This was one of the best tutorials for rigging assist hooks, The presenter was talking and although there was music in the background it was low enough so you could hear him talking. Other youtubers take notice. PLEASE!!! The videos with just loud obnoxious music and no talking, I instantly shut them off.

very informative,thanks

If any buddy wants to learn more about slow pit Jigg stop by at the federal store the guys are amazing i really recommend

[@chrissherman1727]

Love the new storefront! Totally recommend anyone in South Florida stopping by, it's right in Pompano on Federal. Everyone there is super helpful and can give some great advice on all things jigging.

Just received my levitate rod today thanks for the quick delivery can't wait to hit the water 💯💯💯the 💣tails up spj jig on !!

[@w.a.2791]

Awesome video! So what kind of hooks are you using? How do you determine the size of hooks to use for the weight/size of the jig? Can you do a video for single hooks? Thanks!

[@JohnnyJigsTV]

We use 4/0 up to 7/0. The Johnnyjigs single assist is a great option as well as the Gamakatsu 510. There is alot of factors on hook size that I could do a whole seminar on. Based on targeted species, depth, jig profiles, and size. I will try to dig into that in depth throughout the year. Thank w.a...

[@w.a.2791]

@@JohnnyJigsTV Cool man thanks!

[@andrewrollins4898]

For those who use shrink tubing, try using hot water from the microwave oven, it cures the shrink tube evenly. Just put a cup of water in the microwave for two minutes and place the assist hook with shrink tube in place under the hot water for 30 seconds. You can't go wrong, it works great.

[@thee-edd]

Boil the kettle and pour over it

[@christaggart1035]

I just can’t see what you do with the solid ring. Tried so many times. I know it’s me but any chance you could do one where it’s easier to see?

[@JohnnyJigsTV]

Rodger that. I will try to get a good shot of the jig next video.

what pound brai if you only had one slow pitch reel

20 pound all day

[@kenth6140]

Hi, want to go yankee boat. I don’t know setup braid for my reel, SALTIGA LD 35JH

[@JohnnyJigsTV]

Hi Benny, It depends on what trip you are planning on. If you are on a deep drop trip I would suggest having a reel packed with 15 or 20# test for the deeper water and a reel with 30# test for the shallow spots [400' and less] as for fluoro I would suggest 10 to 12' of 40 or 50# top shot. BTW thank you for checking out our channel and all the comments.....Johnny

Hey Michael, it is a 5/0 hook.

[@redyBBK]

thank you, you don`t use shrink tube ?

[@JohnnyJigsTV]

Not anymore. It will add an extra layer of protection.

[@jm9792]

Great video! I fish Louisiana for red snapper and we have to use circle hooks. I have just started using flat fall jigs rather than cut bait and am having good results but we are required to use circle hooks. I'm fine to replace factory hooks with circle hooks but would like your comments on how these work on a flat fall jig and what brand / size you recommend ... our snapper are 6-20 lbs. Thanks

[@amabdelsamie]

Nice video 👏👏 can I know how to you tie your snap please. Thanks a lot

[@CaptCollier]

Thanks for the helpful tips man, definitely gonna order some supplies online to start making my own.

[@JohnnyJigsTV]

Yeah bro..You will save some 🤑 and have better quality assist hooks the way you like it.

[@bernadetteterry845]

I purchased a jig, hooks and split ring. Do I also need barrel swivels on both ends?

[@cdyow]

I don't have a boat. Or a fishing rod and reel. I haven't been fishing in 20 years. But I know how to make SPJ assist hooks! Been binging this channel for about a week now. Great fun!

Hey Ocean deep. Our channel is primarily devoted to slow pitch jigging. Let me know if there is any specific questions I can answer. I would be glad to help.

@@JohnnyJigsTV wanted to know what's a good introductory rod that won't brake the bank to get started with? For slow pitch jigging.

[@JohnnyJigsTV]

Daiwa Harrier or Temple Reef Elevate

[@jimwoodmansee]

just received my Elevate rod and my micro jig kit-adventure pak and it does not contain any solid rings. How do I order, and what size? Also, do you have a video on how to rig them and how to fish them? Looking forward to gettiing started with slow pitch in my ripe old age of 76.

[@JohnnyJigsTV]

Hey James, You only need solid rings if you plan on tying your own assist hooks. Did you receive the split rings??Do call the shop so we can help you.

[@Grady252]

I can't seem to find the Ocean KC UV Blue. Even on the Hitena site, they don't show KC available other than orange?

[@JohnnyJigsTV]

It has been discontinue...Try the blue hc chord. It's really good

[@motleypixel]

Would there be any advantage to attaching the double assist you show here to the lower solid ring of the ball-bearing swivel? Otherwise, It seems like a lot of HW between the jig split ring, solid ring assist hooks, and solid ring swivel, right?

[@JohnnyJigsTV]

That is a great question. Yes, anytime you can avoid fighting the fish through the split ring you have a better chance of not losing a fish.

[@motleypixel]

@@JohnnyJigsTV Awesome, just to clarify, both ways you are fighting the "fish" with a split ring attached to the jig. This way in the video it's jig, split ring, assist solid ring AND BB swivel solid ring. The way I'm asking is jig, split ring, then BB swivel solid ring and that's it, because I'm attaching my PE Kevlar assist cord directly to the bottom solid ring of the BB swivel. So you are saying this way is better? To fight the fish? Sorry just making sure. Thanks.

Excuse me, but I’ve watched this damn thing xxx times & it is not clear to me at all. That first over the top move is not demonstrated worth a damn. Get your fingers out of the way.

I'm sorry 😞 Martin...This video was done a long time ago we have since purchased better cameras and have worked on our production. If you call the shop on Monday I will be happy to walk you through this....Johnny

[@stevewilliams4777]

Do you ever use wire for the cord? I had my hooks bit off the last time I fished in Florida with that setup

[@JohnnyJigsTV]

We do sometimes. I use a wire leader called Devil Line by Hitena and wire assist hooks by Van Fook. They are available on our site JohnnyJigs.com

Thanks man!!🤙

[@pedrinhohookfishing]

A curiosity... why should hooks face each other in slow jigging fishing?

[@JohnnyJigsTV]

The idea is when a fish strikes the pressure will cause the hooks to spread like a grappling hook and give you two places of penetration in different locations. Granted it doesn't always work out that way but that is the theory.

[@pedrinhohookfishing]

@@JohnnyJigsTV I understood! Thank you very much for the explanation my friend😉🎣❤

Looks great Jonny thanks. Do your run two sets of these on most slow jigs, or just one set if it’s a shorter jig?

[@JohnnyJigsTV]

Hi Adam, I prefer hooks on top and bottom when possible. If the jig is short I will only put them on the top.

[@adammcgeorge3538]
