Hey guys, thanks for all the input. I have now got a JigStar 250 - just need to get out there and blood it Tongue. Bloody Easterly wind Cry.

Talking of 3 m Threshers, my wife got smoked by what was presumably a shark, on her Lucanos gear. It gets bigger everytime she recounts the tale, so she is a real 'fisherman'! The jigs are too expensive to feed to Nobbies but. lol Wink JJ

Just bought a Jigstar 350 from yeehaa this sat, blooded it at leigh on sunday, 8 kings, unfortunately none legal, the action of it is way better than my monster mesh that i have been using and heaps of power in it,  slight issue with the top guide, think it might have been a bit dodge as it popped from the mount, good thing about buying local with support  took the rod back and spoke to Chris and tony will have it sorted this week for the epic trip next week, no dramas, would definitely highly recommend them!]]> Mon, 25 Jan 2010 22:06:52 +0000 https://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=49500&PID=707016&title=jig-rod#707016 <![CDATA[Jig Rod : stay away from Tica jig rods I...]]> https://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=49500&PID=704775&title=jig-rod#704775 Author: NZ Critter

Thanks for all the info guys, I appreciate you help.  Tongue I have an Accurate 197, so I may start with a light rod to match that and see how addicted I get.

take all the good advice from above go to a good retail shop put all the above mentioned rods one side ,  put a reel on them and have a pull on each in the shop.better still try to fish with as many differant brands as possible be it through friends/charters etc then you decide ........enjoy .   ]]> Mon, 18 Jan 2010 07:54:55 +0000 https://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=49500&PID=702181&title=jig-rod#702181 <![CDATA[Jig Rod : jig stars r best bang for buck...]]> https://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=49500&PID=701896&title=jig-rod#701896 Author: green guy

 Same Question as Jiggy Jig have an Offshore 850 spinning reel spooled it with 24kg suffix rainbow braid 600mts braid plus backing.  Not sure which rod as there is so many out there now.  
Would also like to use it for deep water fishing, 100 meters drifting over reefs live baiting  stray lining etc.  
Used to catch Kingis Jigging with a basic boat rod 30lb line and 4/0 penn senator reel  biggest was 18kg. The tackle has got really sophisticated now choice is huge.Smile
