Pulley pennel rig

Fisherdan · #1 10-23-2006, 07:49 PM

The pulley pennel rig is i think the best shore rig. the pulley rig itself is great for fishing on rough bottom. the weight of the fish pulls the lead up so it doesnt snag on the bottem. the pennel on it is great for big baits, plus if there's a impact shield it will prevent the bait "flying" off.

i recomend this rig i give it 10/10.

also good for reataching hook snoods if one gets messed up!
as ther is a bit of give as far as snood length gose,
with paternoster i always seem to be a couple of mill out to
replace and give a good tight but easy fit against the bait sheild!

i dont have an issue with lead clearance as most of my day to day fishing
is done over clean sandy ground! but the self hooking propertys of this rig cant be denied!

id like to bye a beer for who ever came up with this rig!
very youser friendly and affective at range!
but for real close range stuff (20/40 yards) i dont have confidence in it
and go for a good old running ledger,
another super simple rig!

i just made a few of these for me and dad to go fishing with and i must reccommend it, but i prefer to have rigs with multiple snoods so i dont use it often, only if thers some rotten bottom, and sometimes for that i use a...rotten bottom!

try adding another hook to make a three hooker, thats two sliding great for hook ups on fish like bass that charge the bait,and hit it then come back too finish it off .

with a squid bait? they eat the head first, then eat the body... you'll need quite a big squid to fit it on 3 hooks. plus more of a snagging chance and if the fish is deeply hooked... you've had it.

ive never had that prob ive been useing it for a few years now, you thread
your bottom hook then your middle hook half way through the worms/squid etc as you would with any bait. and use the top hooh as the slideing one wich you wrap your line round it and hook it just like you normaly.

I use a spinlink or fastlink at the end of my mainline/leader, so all of my rigs start with a swivel to attach to the mainline. When making pulley rigs, I now use Fox Pulley Rig Beads

They help spread the load across a greater section of line and help prevent traces kinking and weakening. I've also looked at the possibility of using mini zip sliders but it just seems to over-complicate the rig.

very good idea there. ill have to get some of them soon instead of wasting 2 of my swivels. any ideas how much it will cost for a pack?

£3.50 for a pack of ten. I couldn't find any in my local tackle shops, so had to order off t'interwebby. I also ordered some Fox Knot Protector Sleeves too, they slide over the knot on the lead link and stop it getting battered by shingle
