Pompano Beach, FL: Johnny Jigs is the industry’s foremost outfitter when it comes to anything slow-pitch jigging. Their online catalog is complete with more slow-pitch jigs than you would reasonably know what to do with, in addition to light and ultralight slow pitch jigs, deepwater jigs, and more.
But their broader collection contains so much more than slow pitch jigs, and encompasses a vast selection of saltwater lures from the top brands, including but not limited to Rapala, Daiwa, Yo-Zuri, and NLBN lures.
The people at Johnny Jigs are, first and foremost, anglers, and they know that one technique, and one presentation, will not work all the time. As a result, they carry an expansive assortment of saltwater lures to meet those different conditions.
There are times that a slow pitch jig fluttered over a reef will pull in grouper. And there are times that casting a stickbait to a school of blues blitzing menhaden will prove far more effective. This is why their online collection contains so many different saltwater lures.
In addition to their metals, they carry a wide range of stickbaits like the Rapala X-Rap Long Cast, which is exceptionally versatile on a wide range of saltwater species, as well as Yo-Zuri High-Speed Vibes and trolling lures.
They also carry a variety of topwater lures, including but not limited to Yo-Zuri Mag Poppers and Bull Poppers, as well as Rapala X-Rap Magnum Xplode Poppers, among others. These are effective on inshore species when a topwater presentation is the ticket.
On top of all the hard baits they carry (inclusive of stickbaits, topwaters, and metals) they also offer a wide range of soft baits, among which some of the most popular, realistic and effective are NLBN lures.
When a natural and convincing presentation is necessary to draw strikes, there are rarely any more effective saltwater lures than soft baits, which also prove to be exceptionally versatile. They can be rigged on jig heads, cast to structure, worked shallow or deep, and even trolled.
Ultimately, given the scope of what Johnny Jigs offers in its collection, there are few if any scenarios in saltwater you’ll encounter that you won’t be able to effectively prepare for, whether your target is tilefish offshore or snappers in the mangroves. You’ll be ready for everything thanks to the wide assortment of saltwater lures they offer.
And, for what it’s worth, they also carry a wide range of rods, reels, line, terminal tackle, and fishing tools. Visit their website for more information or get in touch with them if you need assistance with anything they offer.
