Re: floating feather rigs?
Not too sure what your talking about but i've used baited feathers hung below a float. I attach the weight above the feathers, slide a float on the main line and tie the feathers to the main line. Tie a stop knot made of power gum above the float, adjust to whatever depth you want and that's the set up. As i said, not sure if this is what your talking about but hope it helps.polmac wrote:ive heard people talk about using them from the shore but i dont know what the actual set up to them is. could anyone enlighten me with a diagram as how to make one up?

Re: floating feather rigs?
A weighted float ( can use a coke bottle with your weight trapped inside drill hole in the cap pass your line through attach your weight, half fill with water. ) lenght online for changing the dept, swivel, feathers, 1oz drilled bullet lead trapped on your main line with a bead and a crimp.polmac wrote:ive heard people talk about using them from the shore but i dont know what the actual set up to them is. could anyone enlighten me with a diagram as how to make one up?
