Sometimes you can see a jig with the fish finder.
Ever try vertical jigging 75 feet down, ten feet out from Moki wall at Lake Powell?
Or below the hiway at Deer Creek, where the depth is twenty five feet, ten feet from shore.
If your transducer signal hits the drop off before it hits the jig, you won't see your jig, or the fish for that matter.
I'm just letting folks know there is a way less technical and very dependable way to jig deep suspended fish without a bunch of fancy electronics.
And I don't really like using bobber stops for depth markers. They move too easily when fighting a big fish. Magic marker will stay on your line most of the day and never move.
