The Power of Jigging

The JigReel uses a unique jigging motion to attract fish and entice them to bite. You have the freedom to customize the standard fishing program to your liking and specific needs.

With the JigReel, your lure and hook options are numerous, ranging from real or artificial bait to metallic or blade jigs, coloured or reflective, or even hooks that swim or jerk and twist. This versatility gives you a competitive edge, allowing you to cater to the specific preferences of your targeted fishery. The JigReel is a highly selective fishing method with extensive applications.

easy to Install and light-weight

Mounting these machines on your gunnel and targeting a variety of ground and pelagic fish is a breeze. They occupy minimal space, leaving room for other essential equipment for longline fishing or more.

Equipping your vessel for both longline and jig fishing ensures continuous profitable operations throughout the year. As fishing seasons change, switching methods and adapt is quick and straightforward, and if you then want to store the machines on land, they are light-weight, only fourteen kilos, and can be carried to shore with little effort.

The JigReel is the ultimate enhancement to your vessel.

Customizable fishing Software

Equipped with an exemplary fishing program developed in close collaboration with experienced fishermen, the OILWIND JigReel is tried and tested across the globe. The software is adjustable on the fly, allowing for instant customization and tweaking to meet your unique fishing style.

Develop your own "fishing recipes" and fine-tune the fishing style of the machine to your requirements. Whether you want brief pauses during jigging, increased torque with reduced speed, or alteration in the number of jigging cycles – the JigReel's software can cater to it all. You can cast your line with confidence, knowing that the JigReel is fine-tuned to your specifications.

The software is intuitive and user-friendly. But let's face it, if all you want is to start fishing without the fuss of customization, a simple button press is all it takes.
