Halibut Rig Fishing On The Ocean Bottom 

Allow the halibut jig to drop to the ocean bottom (you'll know when your line goes slack). Reel up 2-3 turns and jig heavily to bang the pipe jig on the ocean bottom. Reel up an additional 3-8 turns. Slowly jig your metal halibut jig above the ocean bottom in 2-6 foot motions depending on conditions. Continue to re-drop the lure and bang on the rock or sand bottom before reeling up 3-8 turns.  The best jigging lengths and speeds can vary depending on desired fish size and weather conditions. Try more abrupt and irregular jigs, as well as smooth jigs with delays between actions.
