This is a rig for fishing big baits such as
peeler crab, squid or large bunches of worms
at distance. Any combination of hooks can
be used in the pennel as long as the top
hook is the same size or smaller than the
main hook. The hooks featured in this
diagram are what I would use for cod in winter over fairly clean
ground. Clipping the rig down ensures that it is more aerodynamic
which as well as casting further also protects the bait.
Tip:
To bend the eye of the top hook inwards
hold the hook with one pair of pliers and heat the eye with a lighter
for 5 to 10 seconds (until glowing). With a second pair of pliers
angle the eye to the desired position. Cool the hook with water.
