Drop shot rig

Using a drop shot rig is different from traditional worm fishing. This type of rig can take a beating at the bottom and will yield more fish. Drop shot rigs are adjustable, allowing the angler to control the hook height and adjust it accordingly for weeds and other vegetation. This rig can be fished at various depths. To catch more fish, you can adjust the sinker weight and hook length accordingly.


Using a ballyhoo on a pin rig

Using a ballyhoo in a pin rig requires a special technique. First, you need to choose the appropriate size of ballyhoo. The size of the hook should match the ballyhoo. It is best to use a smaller hook with a larger ballyhoo. Once you have constructed the rig lay it over your ballyhoo. Next, insert the fishing hook pin through the lower jaw into the upper jaw.

Use a king mackerel-rig

First, choose the right bait to use with a king mackerel fishing rig. King mackerel can eat up to half of a bait with their razor-sharp, sharp teeth. They will bite any bait they find, even if there is no wire leader. A leader of 50 to 80 pounds is a good all-around length. You can braid the wire or use a single-strand. A black snap-swivel is recommended to avoid line twist.
