The Rig! -Part 1
The Rig! -Part 1 As the water temperature reaches into the low 60's, prepare to fish for Trout in deep holes on the bottom. A shrimp tipped jig, live finger mullet or shrimp will work miracles to fill the cooler with decent size Trout. I have taken notes on this method of fishing for over seven years, and I will share some bits and pieces with you in this article. Anyone who reads my articles will already know this rig by heart, but we'll cover it again. It's as simple as they come. Slide on a 3/8 oz. Lead. Then, slip on a small bead and tie on the smallest swivel you can find. Below your swivel, tie a 3 ft. length of Fluoro Carbon monofilament as your leader. A #2 Kahle hook will work fine for your bait holder and hook setter. When you finally are rigged and ready to fish, cast a rig out and let it hit the bottom. When it does hit bottom, let out another few feet of line so the shrimp can swim out from the weight and do his job. Slack in your line will not matter. This is the KEY to this type of fishing. Don't reel your line tight. The whole idea is to let the shrimp swim free of the weight and into the current naturally. Once again, this is KEY. You will know when the fish bites. They normally start out with just a few small pecks at your bait and then eventually swim off with it and your rod will bend over slow and steady, and that's when you set the hook. I suggest an Ugly Stik Inshore rod with a very light tip so you won't pull the hook out of old "softies" mouth when you lay into him. If you need some rod and reel suggestions, please feel free to contact me. I hope this will be valuable for all inshore anglers. I welcome your feedback, and please let me know how this works for you. Email me with any questions. (charterfish@mindspring.com) Tight Lines, and take a kid fishing!
