For the beginner that I am, a 2 hook flapper, size 2, with a plain 3 oz weight is just fine.

i think it depends on where you are fishing and for what spiecies.for instance in a deep water berth or clear,rock/weed free beach i would use a sheppey,which is a type of 3 hook flapper all running pulley style,with a kind of a short,long and low bottom snood,which is also excellent for fishing new marks,testing the water like...or a long and low pulley,which is essentially an upside down pulley,great for flatties...for rocks a pulley trace,or pennel pulley each with (or without,depending on the sea bed/how many weights you've lost) :) a rotten bottom...although i have a friend who just uses a pennel trace everywhere at all times and has great luck...if needs be i can pm u some of the drawings....

If i had to pick just one rig it would be a 7ft 3 hook(size 1/0) clipped down land most fish on that from the small to the big ones

2 or 3 hook flappers
but i do have a tendence to use smaller hooks than most people.

i find with smaller hooks i still catch the biggies but also get the odd smaller species aswell.....but no matter what size i use i very nearly always relase them again..... :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:


i do use bigger hooks aswell on them the odd time but that is when i am going for size and weight not for species count.... :idea: :idea: :idea: :idea:

clipped pennel rig or 1 up 1 down rig but going to start to give the pulley a try.

Distance: Pennel Pulley rig (up and over for rays)

Close in: Two hook flapper (usually on wire booms to keep snoods apart)

I rarely vary from this apart from an unfortunate daliance with the wishbone craze of last year. It goes down in my book as just a tangle waiting to happen :?

you only realy need 3 basic rigs
3 hook clipped
2 up 1 down
pulley
these will get you out of most situations

Pennel pulley on one rod pulley with small hook/bait on the other . If that fails three hook flapper
