I just curious to see what everybody runs when they fish a jig, I don't fish jigs hardly at all but I'm definitely gonna start fishing jigs a lot more and try to master the art of jig fishing. If anyone has any advice on jig fishing I'm all ears, I appreciate it.

I stick to a five power rod for most jig fishing. I use the KLX 7'3" Jig/Frog/Creature bait rod and it does a great job of casting a long distance, working the baits with ease and getting the hook set. Just avoid a rod with too much tip and it will be a good jig rod.

Megabass Orochi XX Perfect Pitch usually. Lighter jigs get the Diablo Spec R and really heavy jigs get the Flip rod or the Leviathan.
