One Kilometer Down: The Physics of Super-Deep Slow-Pitch Jigging
GV Podcast EP004 explores the control problem behind super-deep slow-pitch jigging: layered current, line angle, energy transfer, boat control and responsible release planning.
EP 03
The Vanished Engine: Cabo Blanco and the Anatomy of an Unbreakable Record
GV Podcast EP003 examines the hydrodynamic engine behind Cabo Blanco’s 1,560-pound black-marlin record—and how forage extraction, El Niño and political rupture dismantled the system beneath it.
EP 02
Your Reel’s Retrieve Rating Changes Every Time You Drop a Jig
GV Podcast EP002 explains why a reel’s advertised retrieve changes as braid leaves the spool, and shows a simple field method to estimate true retrieve per crank after a deep drop.
EP 01
One Hang-Up, One Day’s Pay Gone: Why SPJ Failed First
GV Podcast EP001 examines why slow-pitch jigging struggled in the US at first: premium jig costs, inevitable bottom losses, incompatible tackle and a missing education system.
