My first thought was, "Man, that's freakin' overkill, who needs that?". But now...that board looks pretty ingenious! :)
If you do a lot of fishing you can pre-make your rigs and always have them on hand and not have to stop an dig out your stuff to make a new rig plus you can have them in your tackle bag with different pound test.
See my other video it explains the sinker part better.
Thanks
Wow! Pretty clever. I just made one, took all of 10 minutes. I used 3" finish nails, no heads to cut off. I tie my own blackfish rigs. Now I can get them uniform length, with minimum line waste, in less than half the time it used to take me. Thanks!!!
Glad you like it. 👍
This is actually brilliant. I usually keep 1 perfect rig around to use as a spacing reference and i still have to get rid of like a third of the ones i tie. Just made a smaller version of this for the smaller rigs I use and it worked perfect. Consistent spacing and perfect size dropper loops. Thanks for sharing!
That’s great!
You’re welcome.
Tight lines
Please thumbs up if you have thank you
New this is MY kinda set-up. Consistent rigs with even spacing and uniform loops. If to the workshop to make one now 👍 (Melbourne, Australia 🇦🇺 )
Good job, thanks for the video. Made one and it's working out great ! No more store bought.
That’s great, glad you like it. 👍
Man this made my day, awesome tool there, making one soon!
exellent solved my issue with even spacing and uniform loops ill make one today nsw australia

Awesome thanks for sharing 👍!!
Thanks Rocky, it works really good.
Mate, I make rigs for a living and never once have I thought to make up a jig like this.
Well done, will definitely be giving this a crack 😁👍
Thanks. Again the other nails that I don’t mention is for a larger loop.
Yep, picked up on that Mate 👍
I love it. Make it so simple. Appreciate so much
Thank you 😊
great commentary well done
Thank you 😊
Thank you sir.
Great job dude! I’m going to make one!
Thanks John
Awesome thank you so much. Huge help being you need 10 hands. 👍
Well done
Thank you
Great job your the only person that gave measurments. No how do you store spare loops in your tackle bag? Thank you it was a great help

I have a piece of cardboard with slits cut in it at the top and bottom then wrapped around it then I have it in a ziplock bag. It’s a really big help having them pre-made. If you want a pic of it send me your email and I’ll send it to you.
I got some baseball card protector sheets, like 9 slots to a sheet to store them in.
Thanks! Please let me know the width of the board you used (length you mentioned was 26”)
It’s a decking board I believe 5 or 6” wide.
Interesting.
Thanks. It works great, I bag them up in a sandwich bag.
Great job .. works well , good methodical explanation , but I have a question , the middle top nail didn't get used ??? does it have another function ?
Cheers
That is for making a different size loop. So pending which one you use will give you a different loop. You could even use one then the other so the rig will have two different size loops. It entirely up to you. 👍
You can also add another nail to make a smaller loop. Try adding one an inch below the one I was demonstrating.
@@FatTailFishing thankyou .
I think I will try your first setup and see how I go.
We are usually fishing to about 40 - 60 meters in depth & about 1 kilometer offshore . I figure this rig should do the trick
We mostly get snapper , flathead and the like .
Cheers
Hi, what nails determine the length of the dropper loop?
The center ones. I have 2 there for a different size loop
@@FatTailFishing Got it, thank you.
You just did in 2 minutes (all while explaining and dumbing down) what it took me 10 minutes to do. 5 times faster seems like the Rig Jig(TM) is worth it.
Not sure what you mean, so you like it?
@@FatTailFishing for sure. Your method is efficient
What’s the center far side nail for, and sinker part of video is out of frame…..
Hi
That’s to make a longer loop if you choose to want it.
I made another video just for that sinker end knowing it was needed.

👍
Thank you
The Board is 26" Long. How wide is the board? Looks like it's 6"?
Yes, I made it out of a decking board.
That board look like pressure treated do I have to use pressure treated lumber where can I get away with regular lumber
Hi
You can use any board you want, I think I said in the beginning of the video I had used that because that’s what I had laying around. So yes use a pine board if you want.
Hope this helps. Also check out my latest video it explains that little loop better on its use.
Thanks
Would this work with a t-knot?
I haven’t tried that yet. My board is in storage. I’m slowly getting my things out. I moved to the sunshine state.
With the measurements you provided (awesome job btw) what is the total length of the rig ? Just curious I’ll have to see how long my “goto rigs” are and adjust as needed.
Hi
We’re you able to get the measurement? My board has been in storage being I move to Florida.
In order to tie the perfect rig you gotta listen to "My Blue Ridge Mountain Home" otherwise it won't be perfect.
You tell no lie 👍
Can't see in the video how you put on and remove the sinker. Also, what's the purpose of the small loop at the sinker loop. Great job
Yes sorry I didn’t realize it was off screen. Ok, put the little loop through the sinker hole as normal to attach it to your line. If you want to change your weight or you’re done fishing for the day all you have to do is pull that little loop and it opens it back up again. Without that little loop sometimes it’s a pain in the butt to take the weights off without it.
If you need a separate video on it let me know. 👍
@@FatTailFishing I think your video is the best. A video about the sinker would be awesome. This is all new to me and I've been surf fishing for almost 50 years. Lol
No problem I’ll get a video out just on that.
Ok I uploaded a video on the dropper loop aka hi lo rig just on the weight end of the rig. Thanks for asking for this video.
@@FatTailFishing Excellent video. Thank you very much
How wide is the board
I want to say 6”, it’s a decking board.
Great 👍🏾
Thanks
