what rigs?

#1 Post by grady »

hi, just want to ask what kind of rigs need to use when fishing over 15m depht i mean rods standing high on rocky shore and bait can still lie on the bottom for flaties and be able to use 2-3 hooks, :?:farr casting not essential. i imagine the highest should be longest and others shorting below near sinker :roll: if i'm incorect, fix me up please :!: thanks a lot

yer right regards the top snood should be longer on a trace as when ya lie the rig at an angle this will allow all hooks fish hard on the bottom.. if yer fishing your rod at an elevated angle like your saying id use a 3 hook flapper using the same method while tying it of the top being longest then the middle snood being slightky shorter again an the bottom snood being shortest only makle your snoods longer than normal to match the angle you'll be fishing at... when the trace is made attach a lead and hold it by the top swival at 70/80 degree angle just short of a 90 degree vertical angle and if all hooks touch the floor it will do the same while fishing an fish the baits hard on the bottom :wink:
