In this video, I demonstrate how to effectively use the Hogy Peanut Jig to target finicky Albacore. I break down my approach, including the "walking gun" method for positioning, the ideal rod, reel, and line setup, and the specific casting and retrieval techniques that trigger more strikes. You’ll also learn how to adjust to environmental conditions like wind and water clarity, as well as tips for safely handling and releasing fish. Whether you're a seasoned angler or just getting started, these tips will help you land more Albacore while practicing responsible catch-and-release.

Slow & Low Retrieve: Begin your retrieve with your rod tip pointed at the water, use a medium-slow speed retrieve to allow the Peanut Jig to wobble side to side below the surface. Continue dropping your rod tip angle as the lure gets closer to the boat.
