Product Description

The JF Jigging Bluefin 64 is a heavy-duty, JFJigging deep-water jigging rod designed specifically for battling large pelagic like Pacific Bluefin Tuna in Southern California water.

  • Rod Specifications: Bluefin 64H
  • Power: Heavy (H)Line Rating: PE 5-8
  • Jig Weight: 100g - 400g


  • Rod Specifications: Bluefin 64XH
  • Power: Extra Heavy (XH)Line Rating: PE 6-10
  • Jig Weight: 120g - 500g


    • Recommended Setup:

  • Pair this rod (64H) with high-capacity, high-drag reels (e.g., Maxel Rage Pro 90, Daiwa Saltiga 55, or Accurate BV2-800N-SPJ) capable of handling up to 30 lbs of drag.
  • Pair this rod (64XH) with high-capacity, high-drag reels (e.g., Maxel Rage Pro 130 or Accurate BV2-1000-SPJ) capable of handling up to 30 lbs of drag.


    • Line:

  • Spool with 80-100 lb braided line, ideally a metered line like Power Pro Depth Hunter Offshore to track exact strike depths.
  • Leaders: Use a 60-100 lb fluorocarbon leader for daytime and step up to a heavy 200-300 lb leader at night to withstand abrasion.


    • Jigs:

  • Match the rod with heavy, compact tungsten or knife jigs (200g-500g). Tungsten jigs sink faster and have a smaller profile, making them highly effective for SoCal Bluefin.


    • Technique:

  • Drop the jig deep into the water column and aggressively work it to mimic injured baitfish. Nighttime jigging is highly productive because baitfish rise in the water column.
