Step by step instructions to make an adjustable strip bait / live-bait fishing rig. This rig makes limply frozen baits look alive to have a better presentation.
Good video! To make the upper hook useful leave the tag end leader long, slide the upper hook all the way up and cut the leader in two. Add a small bead under the upper hook. Tie the two pieces of leader together using a bloodknot. The bloodknot becomes the 'stopper'. A drop of super glue on both the upper snell and the bloodknot give you enough leverage to set the hook and fight a fish using the top hook. If youre only using this to keep a bait inline then stretchy thread or dental rubber bands will achieve the same result. good luck!
Charter boat captain told me “Do not use braid to tie the sliding hook. Once braid gets wet, it slides too much and your bait will constantly need adjustment. Use mono for a more secure hold.” Bottom fishing at about 240 feet
great idea. looks like the like got nicked. Does that happen every time? if so, the line is no good for your trophy fish. your better off making a stationary two hook rig
I know an adjustable method, like an easier adjustable method, take you leader snell on the hook you want to use for the live bait, preferably a 1/0 or bigger and take another hook and slide it down the leader line making sure that the hook point or body is going the same direction as the bottom hook you snelled on earlier.(remember the size of the hooks varies for what sort of bait and how big the fishes are that you are going to catch) so you will have a sliding hook on the leader line so you can adjust where the hook goes in the bait...BUT make sure the sliding hook's point and body goes the same way as the snelled hook this is very important. and you can tie a swivel on top of the leader and put a sinker on your main line then tie the swivel leader and hooks all together like a carolina rig.
*Perfect size hook for hatchery catfish that weigh between 3-5 lbs. my lip hook almost all the time unless your bait is very much desired by the fish>>> **allabout.wiki/1004** It's very durable made from hardened steel, I believe. You can use it over and over. It never rusts in my tackle bag. I use a knot less snell with a 25 lb mono filament leader line from Kastking for this hook. Its point is very sharp and can easily land a thieving fish. We landed many catfish with this hook. Best purchased in packs of 25 which should last you throughout the season.*
I don't like how the top hook slides. What happens when you set the hook and the top hook is the one digging in. You would get a poor hookset or a dropped fish. Why even have the top hook if it's not doing it's job? Double snell both hooks with the line. Lose the braid.
You missed the whole point of having the sliding top hook. As mentionned in the video, it s purpose is to hold long bait straight on the line and prevent it from dropping down for long casting. You can also use elastic wire to hold it but this method is better because if u have a long big bait the fish can bite up and u ll loose it, with the small hook up you will catch, it is not true that u ll have a weak hooking, i tried it and i am catching on the up hook the same as main hook. It has to be sliding in order to position it correctly depending on bait size.
Moving adjustable second hook sucks, when it shifts, the bait might be PRESENTED wrongly rendering it unattractive to fish, resulting in a very quiet inactivity period.......

Trey Marshall after using that method for years and now seeing it this way i like this way better because if you use small diameter line it can pull the bindings out your way this way the knot is binding back in on itself
I am fisher myself, but have to say that using alive fish as a bait is torture for the fish. Alive fish should not NEVER be used as a bait. That is pure cruelty to animals. Please do not spread this kind of instructions to others which are torture for the animals. Fish also feel pain and suffer like other vertebrates do. All fish that are caught for eating must be handled carefully to reduce stress and humanely killed as soon as possible after capture. Humane killing requires that the fish is stunned (rendered instantaneously insensible) before being bled out. Percussive stunning involves a forceful and accurate blow to the head with a blunt instrument. The force required will depend on the size of the fish. The blow should be aimed just above the eyes to impact on the brain. The effectiveness of the stun should be checked and another blow applied if the fish is not unconscious. After stunning the fish should be bled out by cutting the gill rakers or, with larger fish, a main artery. With the very small fish breaking the neck is good way to kill. Just put your thumb or other finger to the mouth of the fish and quickly make a move upwards. All this is important because fish also feel pain and suffer. Pain and suffer of the feeling animals must be minimized. When the fish is in pain and suffering, the fish also produce stress hormone. Stress hormone makes the meat of the fish taste worst and stress hormone also reduce keeping quality. Tight lines!
merry ferry Jesus Christ dude it ain't that serious!! Fish eat other fish 24/7 365, we are technically doing the same thing in a more technical manner... I would hate to fish anywhere near you! You probably have the game warden on speed dial!!
Prynce Al the point is to avoid UNNECESSARY pain, suffering and stress. There is many things what a fisher can do to minimize the pain and the suffering of the fish. Kill the fish immediately and properly after catching the fish is one way to do that. Suffocating is horrible way to die for any animal. Drying eyes of the fish and wound which have come in the fishing process cause pain and of course suffocating is very bad. Also innards or viscus of the fish are huddled together because water is not holding up the fish. Using alive bait is so clear torture for the fish that of course alive fish should not be used as bait. You can get fish also with dead or artificial bait. Alive fish as a bait is totally unnecessary cruelty to animals. After all we fishers take all away from the animal, which is their life. Least what we can do is to avoid unnecessary pain, suffering and stress. Or else we are total assholes... And by the way you can not look some cases or incidents in the wilderness and use that as a foundation of your actions, moral and human behavior. That is common mistake called naturalistic fallacy(you can check that from the google...) After all you are a human and your humanity is redeemed by living through reason, empathy and morals. I think that you would not like or accept if you would be the target of the actions which are copied from the some events which happen in the wild...? So why you want to base your on actions by looking how the fish are behaving? Are not you more than a fish or not? It is ridiculous if someone takes action model from the nature when that is supporting person's own point of view and if not then the person will abandon the naturalistic point of view.
By the way here is an awesome site which shows proper killing techniques by using spiking(iki jime) method. www.ikijime.com/fish/brown-bullhead/ On the site you can use the search function to find x-ray pictures of the different fish species around the world and there is also other information. X-ray pictures are because that helps the fisher to find the brain of the fish for killing. The killing tool is metal spike.
Awesome rig... thanks for sharing... one of the things in love about fishing is that one learns a new trick every day
thanks for watching.
Good video. I use this kind of set for grouper, amberjack. Even works well for blue fish on wire leaders.
HI there from NZ. That is a brilliant advancement on the loose stinger hook. That rig is going to be lput in use very soon! Thanks.
These are well made and look fish enticing. I have checked their movements in low clear water and am anxious to try them in the lake.
I like the little coffee straw knot trick. Genius
I have used the double snell slider for Ling Cod but this is an easier second knot to tie when using heavy line.
Beautiful rig! I like it!!!
Thanks! Caught a nice Kingi for dinner! used a yellow tail fishing by gannet rock.
Ben Martin Good catch. thanks for watching.
Longman made sav

awesomeness. you truly are a Master baiter... I will try this and let you know how I did in battery park nyc. thanks and fish on!.....😎🎣
Thanks mate, I'll give this a try!!
Great idea of Riggins. I always prefer sliding hooks on my hearing. great fishing styles, u never miss catching fish.
Nice rig. I am going to make one too. And thank you for sharing it.

If youre only using this to keep a bait inline then stretchy thread or dental rubber bands will achieve the same result. good luck!
Thanks for the video! After tying a few "regular" snell knots and obtaining the coffee stirrers from my local 7-11 the process is relatively simple.
Good to know. thanks for watching.
Great rig thank you.
C'est très enrichissant . Mercie
That is so smart....thank you i use that alot now...I dont know how you cake up with that!!!!1
that rig is reel cool thanks for putting it up
glad you like it. thanks for watching.
the best thing about sliding top hook lower stays in line
Obrigado pela atenção, e pela explicação como se faz nós para pesca.
Great idea thanks for sharing...tight lines
good use of the bobber stop knot
Charter boat captain told me “Do not use braid to tie the sliding hook. Once braid gets wet, it slides too much and your bait will constantly need adjustment. Use mono for a more secure hold.” Bottom fishing at about 240 feet
It is so hard to tie for me tho
I think adding some shrink tube to the spectra wrap would give a more secure hold.
what
Nice one...thanks for sharing
Очень поучительно . Спасибо .
Thanks for the idea and tip mahalo 🤙🤙🤙
Watching here,tnx for the tips
Is there a way to lock that sliding hook? Thanks!
Multumim pentru sfat.

Do you have to use braid on the 2nd hook? Or is it just better to?
What was the tubing you used sir? Anti-chafing tube?
Ειναι πολι ορεα θα τα δοκιμασο τη αποτελσματα θα εχουμε σας ευχρηστο για της υδεες
Excelente !!!!🇦🇷 Saludos.
great share thanks.
How much tension is on the front hook if it's still able to slide?
Great way to snell a hook thanks
thanks for watching.
good luck for all .
tying the swivel with the Palomar knot is fast easy and much stronger
Much stronger? Proof please.
Great video thanks!! Could you also provide the name of the song you have playing please.
tye a loop knot at each end of braid makes pulling the snell tight much easier!
Tie*
I've never tied a knot like this. So is that a small straw or a specific piece of fishing tackle?
Je like, super astuce vraiment !!
Lulu
great idea. looks like the like got nicked. Does that happen every time? if so, the line is no good for your trophy fish. your better off making a stationary two hook rig
it may be easier n faster to start with the upper hook first
Good one thanks alot
How do you hook the bait?
Maybe I missed it. Why one hook smaller?
I would like for you to put some bait on for the video, like finger mullet!
awesome....
Very cool
You can use a uni knot there
Is the best👍
nice one
i caught a 11 pound bass with a crankbait last year
What knot did you use to tie on the swivel?
mine using the uni knot.
muito bom
quá hay !!

apik nan
Where do you get that black stick to push through the tag end? or what can I use instead?
+Hideaki Yoshizawa those look like coffee stirs, available at most stores that sell paper goods (not for writing)
Ok rig. Top hook always slips.
thanks pee cee :)
Nice
show very good
Sir, what will happen if the fish were hook up by the small hook only?
The smaller one will slip to the bigger hook and is blocked. Nothing happen...you get the fish.
This is the best coment and answer :))) lmao
What was the knot used to tie the swivel? Thank you.
Targetfocus called a heavy mono knot.
the porn groove soundtrack really did it for me. 10/10

exelent..!! 😀 👍

I copy it, I was looking for this
Jimmy Erazo
I run a sinker 12" below the hooks, how can that be achieved, 3 way swivel?
+Blair Burgess You mean you run a Ledger rig? Strayline or livebait with this
where can I find that stick that helps you tie the knot? thanks
Same tryna find what it is
Coffee straw
Hi... is that a piece of shrink tubing your using to help snell the hooks?
I use a coffee straw
thanks... great videos
جيد
reckon you could give a quick run down on how to actually rig a popular bait like a pilchard with this rig? so that it looks like it swims naturally?
will it work with cut bait???
Sam Gritzke no, this is made for live bait in specific
Sam Gritzke don't listen to him, yes this can be used with larger cut bait or two different pieces
فنان
Is the sliding feature to adjust for the size of the live bait?
The sliding hook is to stretch some soft baits such as squid strips.
No wonder I had no luck with squid. Thanks.
it works pretty good with fresh clam bellies too.
Can i use the same size for the hook?
yes you can, but it won't look right.
I don't like how the top hook slides. What happens when you set the hook and the top hook is the one digging in. You would get a poor hookset or a dropped fish. Why even have the top hook if it's not doing it's job? Double snell both hooks with the line. Lose the braid.

What is the black thing that looks like a straw?
a tube came from a can of WD40.
Ravi Boss
Ravi Ravigowda,
Anyone can help me how to tie the swivel part. Thanks in advance
th-cam.com/video/VfYSkpu8AKk/w-d-xo.html
pee cee Thanks for the reply man!
There's no need to use a nail knot...you're strugling with that small tube.
Make it easy on yourself and use a snell knot
why don't you use the same size hooks
the smaller hook is used to hook the live bait, wont cause as much trauma
LOL. I don't think anyone else caught this but I did.
Why put 2 hooks close to each other ? unless the fish has 2 mouths or you have a really big rod that can bring in 2 monsters

what's with the music
Agustin Brown
Why use the straw? Just wrap your hook and run the line back through the hook.

Still haven't learned to make a snell without your little thingy?.....LOL.

No need to snooze that second hook. Just let it slide on the line.
Nice Pee cee...
Ugh that music. I last less than 2 minutes...
