When jigging with heavy lines and jigs using overhead gear over spinning gear can give you many advantages. First off typically overhead reels have deeper, bigger spools which means that you can put heavier and more line on the reels, therefore you can use lighter reels with the same amount of line capacity and drag. Since these combos are lighter youll be able to jig for much longer before tiring out.
