Damn, I feel like tossing my gear in the car and heading south. Those are some quality vina. I've been catching the short fin vina here in SD and on the Baja Pacific coast, need to get in the gulf and find those big orange mouth. Great post and photos. Mike

Thanks all for the comments. I know Iceman and a few other have done a road trip to SC. Cool place for sure. It is about a 9-10 hr drive from the far west side of Phoenix.

I am curious as to haw many of you speed jig for the YT in Cali? I don't recall seeing many posts regarding it, seems like it is mostly live bait.

Here is a video of a friend of mine down there jigging at the island. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OQpBK...em-uploademail

I bought a speed jig a while ago and have always wanted to try it at LJ, just never seen anyone do it so I thought it wasn't effective here

It looks deadly. Maybe tough to do from a Yak though. I'm sure there's someone he that's tried it.

It can certainly be done from a Yak!

DO you have any tips for doing it on a yak? Just yank up and down? Reel?

Here are a couple links that may help you. The guy in the video is not jigging near as hard as I do with Turkey Sliders
