12 best spinning jigs

Spinning is a liquid and popular product, focused on the mass buyer and has many subtleties associated with the design. In connection with the constant replenishment of the market, the choice of spinning for jig has become a problem even for experienced, professional anglers. In this regard, when selecting an individual rod, we suggest you pay attention to the following aspects.

How to choose spinning for jig

1. Spinning test. This parameter reflects the optimal weight of the bait, at which spinning for jig will work as well as possible, i.e. allow you to perform long and near casting without additional manipulations, as well as to produce sensitive wiring. The test range for fishing on a jig is from 10 to 40 millimeters.

2. Spinning length. The optimal range of the length of the rod for jig fishing is 2.7 - 3.5 meters. Moreover, the lower limit is more typical for fishing from a boat, while the highest limit is for fishing from the shore. In addition, long spinning rods most often have a greater test than their “boat” opponents.

3. Spinning weight. The secondary parameter that affects the ergonomic performance of jig fishing. Remember: the less weight spinning has for jig, the easier it is to handle it.

4. Stroy rods. A characteristic that has its own classification and indicates which part of the spinning will take part in the work. It is subdivided into fast (only the top of the rod works), middle (upper and middle parts work), slow (the entire whip is turned on before the reel is attached). The first two are ideal candidates for the jig, while the third, alas, is only suitable with rare exceptions.

5. Number of sections. As a rule, the bulk of spinning for a jig is made in two sections, assembled by a plug-in method (inserting one segment into another). Some models are telescopic - in such models the number of knees (sections) reaches six to eight pieces. By tradition, the most durable are exactly the plug models. However, do not rush to grab the first “plug” - the quality of their manufacture differs sharply from model to model, so you need to weigh all the other aspects.

Maximus WorkHorse-X 18L

Rating: 4.9

Maximus WorkHorse-X 18L fully confirms its loud name. Despite the size and light class, this spinning for jig is a real “workhorse”, for which he was awarded a leading position in the ranking. Judging by the user comments, the model has repeatedly saved the poklyovka, it seemed, from the inevitable breakage and pulled out the trophy fish even under the condition of severely limited perceived loads.

It is possible to use Maximus WorkHorse-X 18L only when fishing from a boat - alas, the 1.8-meter spinning is not capable of coastal fishing. But on the other hand, it shows itself in the parameters of strength and ergonomics, overshadowing more advanced competitors ... and it is very inexpensive, which causes high popularity among users.

Kosadaka Mustang 210ML

Rating: 4.8

In the wider fishing community, the Kosadaka Mustang 210ML has established itself as a reliable carbon spinning suitable exclusively for fishing from a reservoir. The reason for this entirely and fully serves the length of the rod. Let's say right away: it is somewhat atypical for standard jig models, however, it shows outstanding results with such an aggressive manner of fishing. The 2.1-meter spinning has a fast build and a test range from 5 to 28 grams, which allows you to constantly change the style of posting, finding the best baits and “games” for the original place.

In terms of ergonomics Kosadaka Mustang 210ML compares favorably with opponents in the segment. The convenient cork handle does not slip in the hands, and the small weight of the rod (only 134 grams) does not cause fatigue during the whole fishing season. This is one of the rarest cases where all aspects of a spinning jig fully justify a decent price tag.

STINGER ENFORCER JIGGER 802ML 5-24

Rating: 4.7

Two-piece plug for spinning jig, designed for long-distance casting from the boat. Despite its compact size (2.7 meters) it can be used as a coastal rod, but for productive fishing in this case it will be necessary to try very hard. It has a heightened sensitivity, tied to the fast structure and low-profile rings. The spinning test ranges from 5 to 25 grams - ideal variations for catching a small fish.

From the ergonomic parameters of the STINGER ENFORCER JIGGER 802ML 5-24, a convenient handle made from a Portuguese cork should be highlighted. It does not slip in the hands and provides a secure grip, which is especially important for effective biting. In general, anglers who have used this spinning to jig for several seasons, express complete satisfaction with the process of catching. The model is uniquely suitable for operation and therefore deservedly takes place in the ranking of the best.

The best jig spinning in terms of price - quality

ST.CROIX LEGEND XTREME LXS76MLXF2

Rating: 4.9

The most expensive and highest quality spinning for microjack from American manufacturers, which has become a permanent attribute in the arsenal of not only domestic but also world professional anglers. It is distinguished by its low weight and the new formula of carbon fiber, which forms the basis of the blank. The length of the rod is 2.28 meters, which is why it can only be used to jig from a boat. The effective test ranges from 3.5 to 10.5 grams - an unequivocal hint that the model is designed to catch a medium-small predator.

But on the ergonomics and sensations from the operation of the ST.CROIX LEGEND XTREME LXS76MLXF2 can argue with all the major competitors. Together with the high-end fittings from Fuji and non-slip grip, which ensures reliable retention during the wiring, the rod is mastered on a well-deserved first line of the rating.

Norstream Kando 902MH

Rating: 4.8

One step away from the leading position, the magnificent spinning for the Norstream Kando 902MH jig stopped, the main advantage of which lies in the combination of a weighty test that is optimal for the length and materials used in production. The model is made of high-modulus graphite UTC, which greatly simplifies the design and, together with the EVA overlay on the handle, gives 175 grams of weight. The length of the rod is 2.74 meters, which allows fishing not only from the boat, but also from the shoreline, taking into account the good range of the casts being made.

Kando 902MH is designed for bait weighing from 10 to 38 grams with a maximum load on the line in the region of 4.5-9 kilograms. According to anglers, the specimen shows itself from the best side, but the issue of high cost inevitably joins the big picture.

Banax Thunder 90MXF2

Rating: 4.7

In third place is one of the lowest budget spinning in this category, showing outstanding results in quality. Banax Thunder 90MXF2 has long been very popular with domestic fishermen, who did not fail to take the model to their arsenal despite the fact that it is suitable only for catching an average predator. The bait rod test is 7-25 grams - a good field for improvisation, especially for an inexpensive model.

As for ergonomic indicators, a two-section handle made of cork deserves special honor from the owners. In general, Banax Thunder 90MXF2 has a good grip, it is pleasant for long casts (even from the coast, because the model is 2.74 meters long) and a high degree of sensitivity.

GAD Harrier 702MHF

Rating: 4.7

A typical representative of the caste near budget spinning jigs, the main advantage of which is the balance between workmanship and cost. GAD Harrier 702MHF is one of the individual projects of the company Pontoon21, designed for the aggressive type of catching trophy fish. The rod test for baits is 12-45 grams, which significantly increases the chances of luring a large predator. However, in this situation, you should be very careful: although spinning and imprisoned for aggression, it strongly encourages accurate technique of pulling fish to the shore (with rare exceptions) or to board the boat. In general, the product is very good, but the real terms of its service (before the breakdown), alas, are unknown.

Pontoon21 Psychogun 912MMHSF

Rating: 4.7

Similar to the previous nominee, the Pontoon21 Psychogun 912MMHSF is a spinning of a pronounced twitch-jig group, intended for fishing of water bodies both from a boat and from the coastline. It has a more "powerful" value of the test (from 10.5 to 32 grams), because of which it is used for aggressive catching of large predators mainly in river and lake waters.

The most significant disadvantage of Pontoon21 Psychogun 912MMHSF is that beginners and amateurs consider the high cost - it is very difficult for potential buyers to accept the loss of such a sum for just spinning. In this situation, the only thing that pleases is that the negative impressions are concealed by the magnificent sensation and ease of the model, bordering on acceptable quality.

Maximus Marauder 66ML

Rating: 4.6

Spinning with not the best name, equally suitable for both twitching and aggressive jig.If we talk about the technical characteristics, the Maximus Marauder 66ML is something located at the junction of two classification groups. According to experts, the spinning class can be described as medium-light, although there are no obvious prerequisites for this. The rod test is a good run from 5 to 21 grams, which gives anglers the opportunity to experiment on water, and the line goes beyond the standard concept of “fast” - only the very top of the whip is involved in the bite phase.

As to the sensations of use, the anglers point to some uninformative actions of the Marauder 66ML. Yes, this spinning can be an ideal tool for quick and unexpected (for fish) cutting, but in terms of sensitivity, it lacks sharpness.

Top spinning for micro jig

Aiko Jannjeta 662ULT

Rating: 4.8

Perfectly customized spinning for micro jig, conquered users with the highest sensitivity of the whip and the speed of action. According to experienced anglers, this model is the best of its kind and combines a number of original solutions that made the process of catching more interesting (and more efficient). The rod test on the bait is 0.5-4 grams, and on the fishing line 1-6 Lb, which indicates sharpness for catching a small predator (small perch, young pike, etc.) With a weight of 85 grams, the model is 199 centimeters long. - the best indicator for fishing in calm waters from a boat or small fast-flowing rivers from the shore.

The only drawback of Aiko Jannjeta 662ULT is expressed in the level of cost - only an avid fishing enthusiast or a true professional can afford such spinning.

Major Craft Trapara 562UL

Rating: 4.8

Trapara 562UL from Major Craft is a representative of one of the company's budget series, sharpened under a jig (with the prefix "micro") and I catch trout. It differs from its competitors by a rather high cost, but it fully justifies it in the process of fishing.

An ultra-lightweight fishing rod with a medium formation is suitable for fishing fast-flowing rivers and streams, during which it provides additional resistance to the movement of crankbaits and affects their play. Unfortunately, many Major Craft Trapara 562UL anglers are designed only for small baits, whose weight does not exceed four grams, and, accordingly, for catching a small fish. However, there is a reason for joy: due to high efficiency, the quality of the catch can be compensated by quantity, which experienced users of this model did not fail to report.

The best spinning for heavy jig

SHIMANO YASEI AX SPG SHAD JIGGING XH

Rating: 4.9

Heavy spinning, remaining outside of any classifications, occupies the leading line in the category specially reserved for it. Despite not the most optimal size (2.7 meters) SHIMANO YASEI AX SPG SHAD JIGGING XH has a huge margin of safety and allows you to work with baits weighing from 60 to 100 grams. Through the use of composite materials for the manufacture of the whip and the basis of Shimano, it was possible to reduce the weight of the finished product to an amazing mark of 0.2 kilograms, which consumers could not but like.

Of the additional “chips” of spinning for the jig, it is possible to note the presence of a special cover in the kit and the sharpness exclusively for fishing in fresh water. Such limitation, coupled with a fairly high cost, makes the model suitable only for professionals - for amateurs and beginners in fishing, its acquisition will be redundant.
