So what is the latest on this trip? Who is going, what gear will be used? Any tips and tricks to share?

I am really looking forward to meeting some new people on this trip and learning how to improve my jigging skills.

A few guys on the forums have been very helpful, and I greatly appreciate it.

A special shout out to a few guys that are helping me prepare for this trip:
* JerseyBrian for selling me his Shimano jig bag loaded with some very nice jigs. I look forward to seeing you at Jigfest IV.
* Jason4606 for the awesome deal on his Saragosa 1800F and the great advice on rod selection for it.
* Jim of EasternTackle/BluewaterJigs for making a wonderful jig at a great price. And I am glad I won the naming contest (Ayasugi). I also want to try the Sand Flea jigs.
* TJ of OTI for the great customer service for my OTI Jigging Rod.
* Kilsong for his tackle advice and depth of knowlege in sportfishing
* Glenn for being a great motivator and inspiration in the sport
* Paul for arranging this trip. I am looking forward to trying out a Spiral rod for the first time, especially if its a JiggingMaster 400g, then I might be going home with it :-)


Tight Lines....

Vinnie,

Sounds like an offer I can't refuse
I like it when trip comes together like this.

We can make arrangements for me to pick it up next week.

This weekend I need to stay home and study for my Organic Chemistry exam for monday
I can't wait to be done with this premed program.... then the real fun starts!

I will PM you my contact info.

peace!
Ty

I have seriously been pulling for something to change for you guys.. i hope it does.. if not it would turn into an offshore wreck fishing trip..

the captains on the voyager are pretty damn good at that.. some humpbacks, some wreckfish, some barrell fish, and some cod and maybe pollock depending on the water...

make you boys jig in like 200 ft wouldnt be to bad at all!!
