Cod rigs

#1 Post by basshunter10 »

Hi Lads,

What do you find is the best rig for cod? I normally fish the beach but this winter i hope to get out on the water a bit more. Any advice appreciated.

Thanks

A lot of lads are having great success on soft plastics, especially for the big lads, otherwise you can't go wrong with a luminous rig like the red devils with a sliver of mackeral
