Mustad Moonriser Jig
mustad-fishing.com/us
The Moonriser jig is a slim-profile jig with weight concentration near its head. This jig’s slender shape is reminiscent of sand lance, and it’s highly effective when fish are feeding on sand lance. It is a highly versatile jig that attracts various Alaska species, including Chinook and coho salmon, rockfish, lingcod and halibut. Due to its streamlined design, it descends quickly. It cuts through water with minimal resistance and allows the angler to jig in deeper water. Slower and longer strokes are ideal for working the Moonriser and this less-intense technique allows anglers to continuously jig for a longer duration, increasing the chances of a strike. Moonrisers are available from 90- to 300 grams in a variety of colors.

Daiwa Tanacom 1200
daiwa.com
The all-new, big brother in the Tanacom family comes in with a larger line capacity than any previous Tanacom reel: 1,100 yards of 80-pound-test Daiwa J-Braid. Along with the additional line capacity, the retrieval rate of 460 ft/min is 30% higher than other models and 22 pounds of max winding power makes this the most heavy duty of Tanacom reel models. To get the increased power, speed and efficiency, the motor and gearing are placed inside the spool itself. By having the motor and gearing inside the spool, it allows a more rigid frame and side-plates, as well as repositioning bearings to receive less saltwater exposure. What continues in the new Tanacom 1200 is the easy-to-read LED dot screen and fully sealed electronics that allow you to adjust power-assist settings and automatic stop- or jigging features. For ultra-deep drops looking for black cod or shortraker rockfish, this is the reel!
