Learn how to make two different shore fishing rigs for beach casting. I teach you how to make the pulley dropper rig & the patternoster / flapper rig, both of which are very popular UK beach fishing setups.
I have found that on average, the Patternoster setup is the most successful in catching. Is it because it has 3 hooks & 3 baits? Maybe. But the pulley rig is uniquely advantageous, being able to catch bigger fish & has the added benefit that when you hook onto a fish, the lead weight is pulled off the sea floor as the fish puts tension on the line and is therefore away from the snags.
Obviously the choice of hook sizes are dependent on the species you are targeting and the rig body can reflect the size of lead you will be casting with.
In this tutorial I am using 60lb, 50lb & 20lb monofilament line that will be clipped onto your shock leader. The leader prevents your main line from snapping when you cast out with great power.
I hope this is useful to you. Good luck and tight lines!
