"Jigging" Natural Recordings by Native Speakers
Jigging refers to a fishing technique where a lure or bait is moved vertically up and down through the water to imitate the movement of a baitfish or other prey, often used to catch species such as cod, haddock, and halibut. It can also describe the erratic movement of a fish on the end of the line when it is hooked or struggling to get free. In a non-fishing context, "jigging" can also mean dancing in an awkward or uncoordinated manner, often to a particular type of music.
