Jigging Tiles
You can jig Tiles. But you need the right conditions. On most 2-3 day Viking tile trips you will be lucky if you have the right conditions on maby one of those days (if your really lucky). Thats why we mostly use bait, which is in reality a more effective approach. But if you are a true jigging fan you will need "flat calm seas" or at the very least wind against tide conditions if you are to have any success at jigging tiles. 80 lb braid with a 50-65 ft topshot of 60 lb test will be sufficient. We have also had good success at jigging Wreckfish, with the above mentioned conditions of course.
