Bought me a Penn fathom power curve 8-15Kg rod (5ft 10inch) and paired it with a Shimano Stradic FK 5000 for a light jigging outfit to target Kings in the Gulf. Now I need some jigs! Am thinking Jigging Master fallings Special and Zest Spearheads should tick the box nicely.  After the big spend I can only sneak so many past Zero Alpha, the accountant, she who controls the budget... What are the go to colours?
Cheers
