Great video ! Thanks ! I get a kick out of the haters, saying how wrong this rig is. They seem to know everything....so why are they even watching this video?
Love your videos, I have one question though. If I rig an 80 foot leader, how do I reel the 80 feet of leader once I get to the swivel? Once I get to the swivel, the weight and the swivel are in the way once they get to the rod guides.
Yeah not the rig for me but I like anyone that shares their experience with others. This doesn’t seem to dissimilar to a free floating heavy torpedo sinker above a swivel and a standard 3 to 4 foot leader. Seems like it could accomplish the same thing. In theory the weight hits bottom and the bait with leader can continue floating up with the current a little ways until you stop letting the line out
Question What are your recommendations for my setup. I have 700 yards of 80lb braid with a 40ft of 80lb mono topshot. Do I add the low LB swivel, bead, then high poundage swivel to my topshot then add 25 feet of leader? I am fishing in 100 to 200 feet of water. I am bottom fishing for mutton, mangroves, red-snapper, groupers, and amberjacks.
How do you deal with getting all that leader back in the boat when you catch a fish? (I wrote that then saw the end of the video where you hand line it in). I’m up in the Panhandle and we use a relatives short leaders for red snapper and knocker rigs for grouper. We don’t have mutton snapper up here. I’ve never seen anyone up here using a 40-60 ft leader, but I may try it. Thanks for the video, I’m glad I found your channel.
Hi! I enjoy the video. In the video, you emphasise that the leader line should be around 40-60feet. If fishing shallow, do still using this long leader line? And also, does this concept apply to high low rig set up as well?
Ricky-nice instructional video bro! Suggestion: use orange or green line when you do these so it’s a much better visual for all watching. Keep up the great work--tight Lines!
Finally I’ve been waiting for this video lol question I know your set up is from kayak fishing and fishing in the deep ...i unfortunately don’t have a boat yet or kayak I usually fish from a bridge in key Biscayne or bill brags it’s not too deep there and I’ve never really caught anything bigger than 14” lol do you think 5 ft of leader is good or should I use more ... I know you recommended 20 at least but I don’t even think it’s that deep at my spots lol
Nice informative video!! Keep it up!! 💯👏🏻👊🏼🎣 The Murphy Fam enjoys all of your videos!! We look forward to new videos!! Keep sharing!! 🤟🏼🔥😎🙏🏼 -Shawn and Jessie Murphy
Same just make the leader about 15f, if you can't cast 15 feet go to 10f, there are tricks to cast with a long leader, i will show you guys how once the bridges open back up, Thank you 💪👊
I wonder if the long leader technique would work on a bridge in the keys. you would need to use the dental floss technique so you can take off the sinker and be able to reel the fish up, or maybe u can use the 3 way rig like u have here and just handline the fish up. use a long 20 or 30 foot leader and just drop the sinker over the railing, your bait will go back under the bridge in the shadow. use a nice bait likoe mojarra pinfish or finger mullet so you don't get bites from small fish. i think that would be a cool idea.
Oyee hermano estoy teniendo dificuldad yo me compre un bote cobie 24 foot pero no me encuentro pescador vivo en deerfield beach are any tips sea bueno menn saludos from brazilfisherman
Just came across your channel , great stuff . Question: don’t the experts always say to go with braid backing than small shot of mono to terminal tackle? Just wondering why you like mono all the way for bottom stuff . Gracias!!
I only use braid for deeper water fishing, for bottom fishing you need to lock the drag and pull hard till the fish is off the bottom, you loose way less fish with mono because mono will stretch braid wont so it my pop most of the time on the knot, also mono work break easy against the rocks like braid would !
Don’t agree with mono for bottom fishing because it has too much stretch. Also, 5 bucks says I can catch a limit of grouper before this rig even gets tied. Lastly, since you have 40-60 ft of leader are you proposing I hand line in a 20 pound grouper or larger the last 40-60 feet? Good way to lose a finger.
I'm really confused. If you have 20 to 40 ft of leader line how do you even reel that in if you're using a swivel? The swivel that goes to the main line will hit the eye of the rod and then you can't reel anymore. So if you reel it in to the swivel and you have 20 to 40 ft of leader line, how do you even get the fish when it's 20 to 40 ft in the water? I guess I'm not understanding how that works. Also how can you even cast if you have 20 to 40 ft of leader line, unless you are not using a swivel attached to the main line.
Once you get to the sinker you reel the 40,60 by hand the fish should be floating already, you dont cast man. Sounds like you saying the rig won't work 🤔
What's up bro, can I use this same setup for fish off the bridges in key largo? How many ft of leader do u recommend? And also does it matter where you cast when fishing for mutton, grouper, and permit on the bridges? Thank you
YES YOU SHOULD USE THIS TECHNIQUE ON THE BRIDGE BUT REMEMBER YOU WONT BE ABLE TO CAST LONG LEADERS ALL YOU CAN DO IS DROP IT DOWN, MAKE IT LONG IF THE CURRENTS IS STRONG IF NOT SHORT, I LIKE TO HAVE A ROD CLOSE ANOTHER FAR JUST IN CASE !
why do we worry about losing our hooks more than our sinker? Sinkers cost way more. I would think loseing a few feet of line and a hook is more cost affective. especially those heavy sinkers. I'm broke (Estoy peloa mi Hermano) so I rather lose a hook than the sinker. lol
I just noticed you take the time to answer like every comment or question. That is awesome that you do that
I try my friend 🙏👊
Good info my man,not all fishermen are willing to give up good info. You made it very simple to understand, i know i will use this rig for grouper!!!

BY HAND ON HAND..WATCH THE END OF THE VIDEO HE DEMONSTRATES IT..BOTTOM LINE..THIS RIG IS WEIRD AND FOOLISH

Nice how-to on the rig ricky, you made it really easy to follow along so we can make this rig.
Thanks b !
does this rig not gonna twisted when the sinker tied up like that though... ?
Question What are your recommendations for my setup. I have 700 yards of 80lb braid with a 40ft of 80lb mono topshot.

I enjoy your videos. Tight lines!
What lb line do you use for your main line? What's your reel spooled up with?
I will do try this Fowey. Thank you. Patria y vida!

Thank you Ricky!
Use a black towel so you can see the line better. Thanks for posting!
Thanks
Thanks for the tips
You are very welcome bud !
Great info 👍🏼
so, with a really long leader like that, how do you get the bait to the bottom without it wrapping around your mainline? Thank you.

If you dont have much current, a 5 to 10 feet will do, strong currents you want to do this 💪
Going to try this long lead tomorrow at bill baggs to see if it works
Great video! Thanks
Glad you liked it!
Nice Ricky... love your videos
Thanks bud!
Can I use this rig with line on the reel that is braid?
Good video bro! Tienes que salir a pescar con nosotros!
Hi! I enjoy the video. In the video, you emphasise that the leader line should be around 40-60feet. If fishing shallow, do still using this long leader line? And also, does this concept apply to high low rig set up as well?
How shallow you fish? if you fish 20,30 feet i would reduce the leader by half , also reduce the leader size if current is not strong !
how do I reel in 60 feet of leader once i get to the sinker??? by hand? 60 feet? few feet is plenty,
Great video bro. Effective rig!
Hey bro nice vid but your background cloth should be different colour
Great info thanks!! Going to dry tortugas in a couple of weeks!!
You will killed over there, slow currents used shorter leader 🤜
Great video and breakdown as always Ricky🤙
Thank you Tony 🙏👊
Good Rig 💪🔥
THANK YOU!

Waiting for more videos 💪💪💪 how to vid. Esta cuarentena me tiene loco x pesca

Bro and i have 150lbs braid next time I will used thank you bro good tip 💪👍
Great 👍

Good tips Ricky! 👍🏻
Thank you brother 🙏👊
Thanks bro 👍🏾
You are very welcome bro!
excellent!. next time red towel or black. better visual. again, thank you!
THANKS !
Does this work well drift fishing? What about faster currents?
Yeah that is mostly how i do it 💪
30 to 40ft leader to hook?
Great tips n tricks! That’s a pirates life!
Man, I’ve been itching to get my line wet😬
Same here brother dying to go offshore, Thank you 💪👊

Mostly what i use from land is 10f, sometimes i use a bit more but not much more because i can't cast it far, give it a try 💪👊
FL FISHING CHANNEL thanks I will try it once we get the chance to fish again :(
i fished at bill baggs but seems the fishing there isnt so good. Better to try a bridge half way down the keys... there you can catch something nice
I’m using the same type of sinkers as you are. What size should I use for currents of 1.1 knot and about 100-150 feet of water?
8 to 12 oz bud!

Ricky , can you use this rig on a , bridge or on fishing pier..... 🎣

You ever have issues with tangles with this long rig.
What if you're on a party offshore boat with like 40 people?
Nice video- what rig would you use for a bridge ?

Hi Ricky - Good video, I have a question about the hooks you used in the videos are, is the J Hook legal in Florida?
Yes they are in the Atlantic not in the gulf side bud!
Really want to go onto a party boat and give everyone 40' leaders and just sit back and watch the mayhem
Hey brother. When will you upload a video again in which you use the gomexus lx50
Im dying to go offshore to keep using the gomexus but the beaches and marinas are close in my area :( hopefully soon 💪

Okay, here’s 5 bucks. Let’s see your tutorial of bottom fishing and then show you fishing. Go - you’re on the clock ……

You don't snell your hooks? With circle hooks, I find I get a higher percentage of hook sets. I don't often use J hooks any more.
I never do but is a great knot i should start using it bro. I like circle hooks for deep waters only, shallow waters i use j hooks!
Good rig 🔥 btw are u cuban
Yes I am, th-cam.com/channels/UHQx8Hvw5I9Nin98aVtqww.html
Do you use this set up drifting or anchor up or both ?
Both but you need mid to strong currents !
Is this for live bait and cut up bait?? Thank you
BOTH YES !
@@RickysFishingAdventures are you near key west??
@@RickysFishingAdventures would you be interested with us hiring you to come on our boat in Keywest in June?
What’s up Ricky, about how deep where you using this rig?
from 40 feet to any deep bro, shallow water shorter leader unless strong currents 💪
Gracias senor I’ve learned so much from you bro
Hi Ricky. Just subscribed. Great videos. What lb. leader line and fluorocarbon leader?
Thanks for the sub bud, from 40 to 60 depending on the size bait you using, mostly i use 60 flourocarbon!
Great channel man! Who did your fish tats?
THANKS BUD, I GOT THEM AT GREGOS TATTOO AWESOME PLACE, CHECK THEM OUT 💪

Where you been buddy
Just sub! I’m gonna have to use this.
Give it a try if dosen't work for mutton or grouper they just not around or don't want to eat, thank you 🙏👊
FL FISHING CHANNEL agree on that!
HEY TONY MONTANA, THAT RIG IS COMPLICATED MY BOI
😕
Bro FWC told me u can fish at card sound as long as u dont pass the toll. Once u pass the toll its monroe county.
Awesome thank you brother, i my try this weekend !

Do you ever have the fish run again while hand-lining the long leader?
yes couple times is really rare but it can happen !
2 lb is 32 oz
