Hi Max. Nice vid, congrats! What is the jigs wrap you are using? Seems a good one to store jigs

[@maxdocken]

Hi Danny, thanks bro! 🤝 It's the Cultiva Neopren Roll-Up Jig Case. It has different sizes. For what kind of jigs/weights do you want to use it? Tight lines Max

Amazing video Max and congratulations for the cooking method in the oven!!! You know that for italians, cooking is important!!!😂

[@maxdocken]

Hey ya guys, thanks a lot - yes not only Italians I love it too. Fresh fish is the treasure we have in our hand, we should enjoy it with our friends and family. The oven technique is very easy, fast and with the butterfly cut the fish is everywhere the same size so it's super juicy and nice! Greetings and tight lines Max 👋

Thanks Daniele 🙋‍♂️

[@smallislandfishing3494]

Interesting choice to put soft baits on the 93m and jigs on the 100m. I would have thought it should be the other way round. Would be interested to hear your logic. Awesome video footage mate. Thanks for sharing 🤙

[@maxdocken]

Thanks bro, ✌️ Sonio 93 M has a stronger tip selection so it's better for a proper hookset (offset hook) and it's easier to start the lure from the bottom quickly. The tip of the 100 M is softer and makes jig animation more easy, especially in the light range. Greetings Max

Nice video Max as always!!! Seems like a very good spot and full of life!!! Why do you use single assist hook and not double?? Nice dentex bro :) :) !!! Keep up the good stuff!!!

[@maxdocken]

Thanks George, I like use single assist hooks with big jigs, just one big (7/0) hook and avoid snagging on difficult bottom structure. Tight lines bro and greetings 🙌

[@GioelePalmeri]

Amazing video Max! May I ask a question...how to you deal with rocky bottoms? I struggle to fish on those bottoms and heavy currents but it's where all the good fishes are!

[@maxdocken]

Rocky bottom isn't a problem but pared with heavy currents it is. The solution is to control your lure/jig perfectly and never ever let it rest on the bottom more than a split second. Be very fast and concentrated and you will safe a lot of money! 😁 TL Max

[@GioelePalmeri]

@@maxdocken thank you so much for the advice! Keep up the good content 🙌

[@maxdocken]

@@GioelePalmeri thanks bro! This was for me definitely the key - also it crucial not to fish too light in currents to get immediate response when the jig is at the bottom. Greetings Max ✌️

[@petarperislavic5226]

Very nice, i love when the day is full of variety of fish. Black Minnow was always my favourite soft lure, but the original hooks tend to bend easily, atleast it happened to me more than once. And also definitely on the pricey side for silicon. Tight lines Max nice vid as always.

[@maxdocken]

Yes absolutely variety is always fun! Love it! Oh yes men I bent some of them as well and lost some good fish. On heavy SJ Tackle only Nr. 5. 😅 With Sonio the Nr. 4 hooks are OK. Tight lines Max

[@hldemi_fishing]

​@@maxdocken number 5 body and hooks will be taken sooner than 4 by dentex of decent size and even small groupers. Had 40dkg ones take number 5. And yet it can take out tuna without bending while 4 cannot. Only problem is that 5 is 30%+ more expensive....

Nice video again!

[@maxdocken]

Thanks bro! 🙏

[@hldemi_fishing]

Great video Max. Loved softbait vs jigs idea. I am sure that BM would take a big lead on large enough sample size. Apart from that, really loved the butterfly cut, can you tell me a bit about the cut, how to you slice the fish to be able to open it so wide for the oven ? Love the idea.

[@maxdocken]

Hi mate, I think it depends on the situation. I got my biggest Snappersstrikes all on jig but only in situations when fish are searching for prey along underwater edges. The strike is a reaction bite happening super fast. But in general I agree that the softbait is a much better lure to trick the fish. The you set the cuts from the inside (belly) until the back, not through. Then you make a cut close to the head behind a gill plate. The inside bones you cut with a scissors and remove them. It's somehow difficult to explain with words. 😅 The big advantage is that at the end the fish has nearly the same thickness everywhere and doesn't get dry in the oven. Super easy, clean and tasty! Greetings Max

[@hldemi_fishing]

@@maxdocken thanks for the explanation ! Next one goes butterfly style.

[@maxdocken]

@@hldemi_fishing great! Tell me your opinion afterwards! 🙌 Enjoy!

Liked video before even playing and I didn’t regret! It was pleasure watching it and I will definitely put it on repeat! What are you thoughts on Cultiva GJL jigs? I wanted to get GJS but lightest one is too heavy for my setup…

[@maxdocken]

Thanks bro appreciate it! 🙌 I don't like the GJL too much, I had some good days especially in spring bug GJS is defensively my favourite! Regarding a light set up check out the GJB (Nagewaza Shore Jigs) relly nice light jig I use from 15 - 40g on my Spinning setup's. 😃

[@timonmoenig4826]

Hallo Max, vielen Dank für das tolle Video und Petri Heil zu den tollen Fängen! 🙂👍 Ist diese Angelei an der ganzen nördlichen Mittelmeerküste möglich? Also von Spanien, über Frankreich, Italien, Kroatien bis nach Griechenland? Mir geht es mit meiner Frage nicht darum, irgendwelche Spots zu ergaunern. Ich vermute, dass es mindestens 5 oder 6 Jahre dauern wird, bis ich mir eine solche Tour vorstellen und zutrauen würde. Ist das nicht auch gefährlich, gerade so alleine auf den rutschigen und steilen Felsen? Ich werde mir noch einige deiner Videos anschauen! 🤗😊 Viele Grüße und allzeit Petri Heil! 🙂👍

[@Schnaxel]

Also ich war dieses Jahr 3 Monate mit nem Van an der griechischen Küste unterwegs und habe im vergleich zu dem was Max hier zeigt so gut wie nichts gefangen 😅 Es gab aber auf jeden fall nicht sooo viele spots die so steil abfallend waren wie die in dem Video. Hauptsächlich ganz im süden Griechenlands. In kroatien ist die küste aber größtenteils sehr steil. Da sollte das gut gehen.

[@timonmoenig4826]

@@Schnaxel Vielen Dank für die Info! Ja, ich vermute, dass es in allen Ländern geht, aber man schon sehr genau die richtigen Spots finden muss. Ich war vor einigen Jahren, ich meine es war der Spätherbst 2016, an der Cote d'Azur. Da habe ich es im Familienurlaub auch ein paar Mal probiert, aber längst nicht mit der nötigen Ausdauer. Mit Naturködern konnte ich eine kleine Meerbrasse und einen kleinen Conger überlisten. 🤗 Es soll dort zumindest Wolfsbarsche und auch Bonitos geben. Viele Grüße und allzeit Petri Heil!🙂👍

[@Schnaxel]

@@timonmoenig4826 mit naturködern war ich auch erfolgreicher. Ein paar muränen, meerbrassen und auch einen dentey konnte ich damit erwischen. Aufs spinnfischen ging eher wenig, wobei ich meinen ersten barracuda fangen konnte. Möglicher weise ist das aber im Sommer erfolgreicher. War ab Januar bis vor ein paar Wochen dort 🤔

[@maxdocken]

Nach meiner Kenntnis können schöne Fische in allen dieser Länder gefangen werden, wobei ich Kroatien neben Griechenland bevorzugen würde. Die Fischerei von den Felsen ist sehr gefährlich, weniger weil man ausrutschen kann (die Felsen sind sehr griffig) eher hinfallen oder abstürzen. Die Felsen sind extrem scharfkantig und das Meer bei rauen Bedingungen sehr gefährlich. Ich treffe immer Vorsichtsmaßnahmen und trage unter anderem eine Schwimmweste, ein Restrisiko bleibt aber immer, gerade an abgelegenen Plätzen.

No te has dado cuenta que los dentones es peor sacarlos tan violentamente y con el freno tan fuerte? El se pone más nervioso y comienza a buscar más la roca contra más presión nota ,se ve que sacaste pocos …

It depends always on the gear you fish, the size of the fish and the spot. With this gear and size it's easy to pull the fish hard and don't play around. Short hard fight and win, but yes sometimes it's good to fight technically. TL Max

[@orhandikici7315]

Hi Max! Wie gehts,alles klar?darf ich 100 gr jig mit sonio 100M?

[@maxdocken]

Hey bro, 100g slim style jig in not more than 20/25 m depth is possible but it's at the limit of Sonio 100M. Perfect is 60-80g!!!

[@orhandikici7315]

@@maxdocken thanx for answer,l use 40,50 gr for 20 mt dept but l want try 100 gr for 50,60 mt depth:))

[@maxdocken]

For this depth you need an Zenaq Accura 100H or a 95 H - the critical point is not the weight of the jig to cast but the water pressure of 60 bar. Sonio has a soft tip and doesn't move a jig in this depth properly, second imagine a good fish on in this depth.
