For flatfish and whiting etc at range
Rigs and traces
-
A one up one down medium distance rig
-
A general rig that is particularly effective at slack water
-
For scratching at close to medium distance with a long trace body and high top dropper or droppers
-
The principal behind this rig is that of mini-pulley rigs and provide less resistance to the biting fish.
-
A general purpose rough ground rig
-
Ian Golds has been credited as one of the originators of this rig which allows long snoods to be used where the bottom hook falls to the seabed.
-
The weight at the top of the trace helps keep all hooks tight on the bottom. Used in Netherlands and Belgium from the boat and shore
-
The principal behind this rig is that when a hooked fish is being retrieved the weight of the fish will cause the free running tubing to act as a pulley.
-
For scratching at close to medium distance, because the construction of this rig involves overhand knots it is not suitable for power casting
