This is a great video. I haven't fished in 20 years and have taken it back up due to interest from my daughter. Plenty of other videos show this exact setup, but don't explain why / how it works or don't show the knots in detail. This video does it all.
A fantastic tutorial for a newbie, Ryan. Perfect pace in your delivery too. I’m very happy to now understand why and when as compared to simply tying a rig. Appreciated mate.
Everything sounds so obvious but I personally never thought about the physics behind the rigs falling through water, just how to make them. Precious information, Thanks!
Great advice. I use this rig here in Canada for river fishing bottom feeder species. The big plus of this rig, in my opinion, is that if the rig gets snagged and the line breaks, the weight will fall off separately from the hook, and so it doesn't leave a weighted and baited line in the water. Also, if a fish does manage to break the leader the weight will fall off the other side and so the fish doesn't have to drag around a weighted assembly.
Hey Moody, I've been losing really good Jewies up here in Darwin time and time again on this rig, could never figure out why, your explanation just solved all of it. Thanks heaps.
Ryan thanks for this great info. I wanted to ask if the knot you tie the leader to hook/swivel - I think you called it a 'reverse locked blood knot' - works in light line as well as heavy? I have always used a conventional locked blood knot but really like the look of your version (but have never seen it before)? thanks Joe
Are you using braid or fluorocarbon? Must be braid right if you are using blood knot? If I'm using fluorocarbon can i use a tornado knot or still use the blood knot?
Hellow Ryan . What's your opinion on running sinker straight to the hook in deep water ? Have used this method with good success in 50 odd metres using rod and reel .
Mark Bitcon hi Mark. Yeah it works fine and is a rig I use when fishing heavy country as you can sometimes bounce the sinker up and down to dislodge a snagged hook.
@Ryan Moody. For deep paternoster has tension and not free running. Any other rigs for deep water? How can I use running rig for deep without tangling?
Hi Ryan, Question. In regards to tangles & casting at 45%, should you still do this if your planning on having 3 or 4 big live(mullet) rigs out together? Thanks
@@dannywarren1549 it’s better suited in a boat when you have run. Keeps the bait moving away from you. On a beach where there is no tide and possible waves blowing back toward you it can tangle.

Good on ya mate! Fkn superb. Perfect for bonefish
Man thanks for the Precious information. This really help to understand more about where you are going to fish . Thanks man . 👍🏻
HI there from NZ. Your intro was enough for me to subscribe. You know what you are talking about. A very informative video. Thanks.

So much to remember. Thanks.
Brilliant explaination mate!
probably the best rig for river fishing
Thanks Ryan. Great advice mate.
No problem. Glad to help.
Great advice, cheers. This should work well with Gurnard !
Very knowledgeable thanks.
Thanks a lot! Very valuable info :)
Thanks Ryan
very informative video

Glad we could help mate, cheers
Circle hooks work mad with a sliding sinker rig, try it with those, they hook themselves.

what about the running sinker where the weight is right next to the hook, i have seen versions like that, no tangles then
I use that in heavy country as you can often bounce the sinker up and down to dislodge the hook.
Thank you for the advice! but just one thing, any ways to prevent the hook or sinker from getting stuck by the rocky seabed?

Thanks sir!! How about the retrieval speed on this rig? Do I keep slowly reel in and then stop?
Are you using braid or fluorocarbon? Must be braid right if you are using blood knot?
If I'm using fluorocarbon can i use a tornado knot or still use the blood knot?
For deep water why not just have your sinker directly on top of your hook? Keeps everything together.
Think we have another blog on that. www.ryanmoodyfishing.com/best-fishing-rig-for-coral-trout/
What are your thoughts on fixed vs running sinker?
I think he covers fixed. Vs running sinker here www.ryanmoodyfishing.com/best-fishing-rig-for-coral-trout/

Hey mate. Would this rig or sinker straight down to swivel be better?
We don’t use a swivel so not quite sure mate.
What do you use in shallow water and no current?Hook only?Sinker to hook?
A bit of weight is always good on a dropper rig.
@Ryan Moody. For deep paternoster has tension and not free running. Any other rigs for deep water? How can I use running rig for deep without tangling?
You can’t.

Diamondback Silverstreak yeah mate just rotate the rods so as you throw out to the side bring the next rod across.
So the running sinker rig is OK for barra of the beach?
I’d use a dropper as you only use running when there is run.
@@RyanMoodyFishing so this territory rig of sitting the running sinker right to the hook isn't real good then ?
@@dannywarren1549 it’s better suited in a boat when you have run. Keeps the bait moving away from you. On a beach where there is no tide and possible waves blowing back toward you it can tangle.
@@dannywarren1549 we are mostly talking live bait.
what happened to your thumbnails?
Sorry Tech what do you mean?
