It can also be cast at surface-feeding pelagics when the tackle and conditions allow.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThere is no fixed maximum depth for a 40g jig. Current, wind, boat drift, braid diameter and the jig’s shape all affect how quickly it sinks and whether it remains in the strike zone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eUse the lightest jig that still gives you useful control. If the line is sweeping well away from the boat before the jig reaches the fish, move to a heavier jig. Our \u003ca href=\"\/fr\/blogs\/tackle-news\/light-gear-makes-jigging-easy\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ejig-weight guide\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e explains the decision in more detail.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHow to Fish These Glow Jigs\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor vertical jigging, drop the lure to the depth where fish are showing on the sounder and work it upward using short lifts, longer sweeps or a quicker mechanical-jigging rhythm. If fish are suspended, avoid automatically dropping all the way to the bottom.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe jigs can also be cast at feeding fish and retrieved like a compact metal lure. Change the speed, amount of lift and length of the pause until you find the presentation the fish respond to.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe chemical light is an additional visual cue, not a substitute for putting the lure in front of the fish.
