What is everyone's favorite jigging setup for grouper or AJ?

If you REALLY want to have a blast...match that lightweight Hopper rod with an Avet SX. It's tiny but an absolute beast! I have one of the SX Raptor models and it not only is great for jigging, but will cast a mile with near zero backlashes (it casts better than any of my bass reels). I paired it with 65lb Max Quatro braid which is as thin as most 50lb braids. I can hold 400 yards of line and this reel has 26lbs of drag....enough to handle most any AJ you run into.

Saragoosa and whatever rod you prefer to match I have a custom build rod that's my favorite all around spinning boat rod and i am also a big fan of the terez rods.

If you want conventional a torsa if you can find one if not Trinidad 16n or 40n also a little hard to find but great reels

I am not a fan of the avet reels personally unless it is a raptor
