He’s saying that he’s been using all the time for a while now. For example, let’s say he learned this 6 months ago and has used it all the time for the past 6 months. That would be how it works.
Just watched your egg loop knot video, and now I'm here! Frankly this is the high low set up I'VE BEEN DREAMING OF!! This will be a game changer for myself, and hopefully others will see the value too! Used to use three way swivels instead of tying on dropper loops for the exact reason of not wanting to retie an entire rig, but this gives me hope in the minimal terminal tackle high low rig again!
Not sure how much I trust this rig with overhands in the middle, in theory that cuts the strength of the line up to half. But I'd have to give it a go regardless because this definitely seems better than tying traditional pompano rigs...
east coast of florida we call this a mortician, we use figure 8 knots for the 4 knots required for the main line. keeps the strength of the mono in tact.
That’s great! I just tied up a similar line that used TWICE the amount of swivels that your rig does but not near the same amount of motion! I will definitely be tying this up. Thank you!!!
The 'mortician rig' is similar to the 'two hook paternoster' that I fish. I use a small swivel to attach the snood to the main line. Your technique looks good because you no longer need to use the swivel. This could save material and money. I wonder if it works just as well. I'm definitely going to try it because I lose quite a few rigs at the bottom of the channel.
Been sea fishing in the UK for 35 years. Been tying this rig and using bait elastic the entire time. The only concern with the knots in the main of you rig, it weakens the line strength. Try using 6mm clear beads a double threading them, with a barrel swivel in the middle. Or even a two way bead. Then attach your snood length to the swivel or through 2 way bead.
this rig has worked well for me for several years. Tangles are only an issue if you use heavy bait or long snoods ( 4 to 6" 20 lb fluro has worked fine for me )
In fresh water, we just use three way swivels. Only down side about three way swivels in saltwater would be toothy critters that go after the swivels. Three way swivels are still fairly finesse. Originally used for trolling for walleyes in the Midwest but I've seen striped bass fisherman use it in Florida. Can be modified for bank casting.
As I was riding past my favorite fishing lake, I had an idea. Instead of tying two knots in your main line. Why not use two beads, like the kind you use with a sliding float. Because then you could adjust where you wanted your bait. Just an idea. I will try it, maybe in April, maybe. :)
Well I'm about two months away from fishing. My favorite lake is froze over. So it will be end of April, end of May at least. But I will give this system a try. I normally use a double hook dropper rig. This looks easier, since my vision is poot. Tight lines and keep fishing.
Its a great rig and a brilliant idea using that rig .the only this i dont like that tie of the hook,i rather tie it only through the hook eye only , keep my line a little far than the one you used
You are losing fish because you are snelling the hook incorrectly. Feed the line on the inside that faces the circle, and not the outside. Google this to understand why this is important. Also, most fish aren’t as line shy as you think. You can safely use 20 -25 lb mono for your snelled hooks. Set up 2 rods with different rigs, one with 15# fluorocarbon snelled from the outside, and the other as I suggested using the same bait, and see the results.
This is an awesome, ingenious way to get back in action super-fast. I know that you and your dad use the T-Knot as well and that keeps the arm away from the main line preventing the hook to get tangled. Is the T-knot better suited when fishing fishes with no teeth?
Match anglers in Europe use similar rigs, using 50-80lb mono shock leader as rigbody, but trapping two beads between a pair of crimps then using hook lengths that clip on with quick release swivels (not clip swivels, they are little hooks one end with a moving rubber stopper to hold them on). You will often see extra snoods baited and hanging off of the angler's tripod for a quick rebait/recast.
Could you do this with sinker stoppers instead of the overhand knots on the main line? I'm concerned about how much strength you lose with those knots.
Hi just wanted to let you know that I love watching with videos and wanted to know which beach area is that in your lasted fishing video, making a trip to Jacksonville the second week of march. Will love to catch some whiting if nothing else is biting.
Awesome! If you found this helpful you gotta check out my website, I custom make a ton of gear to help you with your next fishing trip! www.heyskipperfishing.com 😇
Love your content bro I'll be going surf Fishing for the first time in my life In May at PCB Florida, what kind of hooks do you use brand and size and do you have any tips
Je vous suis de l' île de la Réunion dans l' océan INDIEN et comme d habitude vous donnez de supers conseilles, je vais essayer cette méthode lors de prochaine session. Est ce que votre matériel peut être expédier chez moi????🐟🐟🐟👍😜
This is a great rig.... just one comment though and it's strictly my opinion based on my own experience....saltwater fish (and freshwater for that matter) are NOT line shy... saltwater fish are voracious eaters and they couldn't give a rat's butt about fishing line vs vegetation vs food when it comes to eating a meal. I've used up to 40lb mono on leaders and hooks and have caught as much if not more of the several species of whatever EVERYONE ELSE is catching along whatever shore I'm fishing. Just sayin'..... I'm also a bass fisherman and I apply the same principal to that too... fish don't care! They don't know what fishing line is vs all the vegetation and "stuff" that's in their home water. If they see food and are in a feeding mood, they'll go for it no matter what's attached to it. Just my opinion and experience; I respect yours.
Hey, appreciate the love and support!! 😁 Just to let you know I've got some killer fishing gear over at www.heyskipperfishing.com. Check it out-I think it'll help your fishing game big time.
Nope, tie a few dozen extra leaders. Unclip broken leader, clip in new leader start fishing. Keep broken leader parts use the parts to make new leaders! Simple and save money, tight lines!
Tx for the tip, it's like the pater noster swivel without the pater noster swivel, more discretion and quicker to create, lower cost etc..I'll give it a go! 👍👍
cost of swivel + worse presentation + takes longer to tie. This FM rig also allows the bait to slide about a bit before hitting the knot .. a bit like a Carolina rig in that regard
Those swivels are COMPLETE JUNK. You should be using Ball bearing swivels, but only ball bearing swivels will spin under load. Those plain swivels are complete junk, I quit using them about 3 years ago and so happy I did.
That right there is called The Fishing Mortician Rig, been using that rig for a while now, I use it all the time.
Wtf are you trying to say? You use for a while but you you use all the time? Wtf man?
He’s saying that he’s been using all the time for a while now. For example, let’s say he learned this 6 months ago and has used it all the time for the past 6 months. That would be how it works.
yep! you on the east coast of florida?

Thanks Skipper that rig will be helpful in all sorts of applications 👍
Yeah! Btw i make lot of awesome fishing rigs. Take a look, may be you find them helpful.
Cheers!

May have to try this instead of the dropper loops with barrel swivels. That’s what I used for stripers with like 60lb mono.
"oops". lol. That got you a thumbs up for honesty. Love your vids.

Making life simpler that's what its all about. Thanks for the excellent video!!!!!!
Nice, this rig will save me money and make changing out hook so easy! I appreciate the you spreading the knowledge!
Aloha, I’m here on Oahu thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience with us. Can’t wait to try out your rigs. 🤙🏾
hey, i am also located in oahu did these rigs help?
That was a unique hack and I will be trying soon skip
Nice! Good looking out.

Works well in theory but not in the water ! Sorry tried it and it got knotted still.
@@ozmedico any snood length gets tangled, something you cannot avoid.
this rig has worked well for me for several years. Tangles are only an issue if you use heavy bait or long snoods ( 4 to 6" 20 lb fluro has worked fine for me )

Three way swivels are still fairly finesse.
Originally used for trolling for walleyes in the Midwest but I've seen striped bass fisherman use it in Florida.
Can be modified for bank casting.
Have you ever seen the Bar rig? Its got two wire twisted T bars .We use it for salmon bottom fishing using the same pyramid weights as yours.
At the end of the T wire you can tie easy a new hook to the wire loop if you lose the hook part.
Great rig, thanks for sharing.

BEAUTIFUL KNOT, EGG LOOP KNOT RULES, GAME CHANGER, THANKS SKIPPER
Its a great rig and a brilliant idea using that rig .the only this i dont like that tie of the hook,i rather tie it only through the hook eye only , keep my line a little far than the one you used
Hey Skipper.....no oops please.....😂
Tried your rig...thanks for the idea.👍🏼
Doing this for very long time.. it's help u recast much faster if u premade the reg.. and make 10 set.. plug and play
Great hack
It looks easy a lot better than traditional the two-way hook set up
🎉
Great video, new to surf fishing. this helps out a lot, thanks
Hey that’s very cool and informative thank you I am going to try that line and hooks

oh really? you need to show it how first before we believed you.
He's right.

Man, that's an awesome rig! I'll be trying it soon
Cool, thanks for the tips. Where do you do most of your surf fishing?
Where do you get the "bait tape"?
Do the knots in the middle of the line weaken the leader when fighting a fish?
In newbie and I’m learn a lot. From philippines
Is the line strength not compromised with knots?
Yay #1 today
How far from the sinker do you tie the hooks
We did a video for a similar rig... pretty cool!
Would that wear the main line with it sliding and moving or will it cut through rig line first
Thank you for another great video!!!!!!!
Lovin this fishing parties super cute thanks for secret learning.
Would this technique work on the Oregon or Washington coast?
Hey Skipper, What size hook do you use?
Nice technique to try…Thank you..
Awesome! If you found this helpful you gotta check out my website, I custom make a ton of gear to help you with your next fishing trip! www.heyskipperfishing.com
😇
Nice upgrade to the t knot rig I learned from you!
that is a good rig set up easy to make and easy to relace thanks for this
Thank for the tips I have enjoyed watching you and your wife fishing together or with your family
Good idea..come support from Malaysia
What rod is that one on the metal rod holder?
What’s the rod your using on the out side
Absolutely Brilliant. Just found your channel. I appreciate you!
Love your content bro I'll be going surf Fishing for the first time in my life In May at PCB Florida, what kind of hooks do you use brand and size and do you have any tips
Don't the knots in your leader weaken it though?
What rod setups are you using?
Great tip, thanks.
Very cool rig
Je vous suis de l' île de la Réunion dans l' océan INDIEN et comme d habitude vous donnez de supers conseilles, je vais essayer cette méthode lors de prochaine session. Est ce que votre matériel peut être expédier chez moi????🐟🐟🐟👍😜
Heck yeah man. Thanks.
That's awesome...less hardware more fish
That's how I do it👍👍
Thank you brother
You should try bobber stops instead of the two knots. That woukd allow you to adjust them if needed.
bobber stops would slide all over once a fish grabs the hook
Is that fishing in North Carolina?
Come on sunshine.. I'll try it next outing.
Great video
i didnt know they made bait elastic, i thought i was a genius for using the little rubber bands for braces
The Fishin’ Mortician rig, uncredited. Figure 8 knots on the leader for the snood “stoppers” do not degrade the strength of the line.
Can’t you make these rigs ready to go? Too much work tying my own!😊 lol! I need simple rigs really simple!😊
My bro shreeeeeded
Buy a rig wallet and fill it with rigs. I recommend a pulley pennel rig.
Better to do with dropper loops and attch those leaders on. I'd be afraid oh those over hand knots weakening the line
This is a great rig.... just one comment though and it's strictly my opinion based on my own experience....saltwater fish (and freshwater for that matter) are NOT line shy... saltwater fish are voracious eaters and they couldn't give a rat's butt about fishing line vs vegetation vs food when it comes to eating a meal.

Hey Skipper, where was the hardest place for you to catch fish? I'm thinking Redondo Beach CA?
Nope, tie a few dozen extra leaders. Unclip broken leader, clip in new leader start fishing. Keep broken leader parts use the parts to make new leaders! Simple and save money, tight lines!
8:08 😂💀
9:04 *toss* lol
fatemi capire xche non vedo piu i video recenti mi avete bannato x caso?
We called that fish Nuvubi
HEY!
Tx for the tip, it's like the pater noster swivel without the pater noster swivel, more discretion and quicker to create, lower cost etc..I'll give it a go! 👍👍
How to prevent Crab eating bait
I told you the knots are better than the loops.
Or you could just use a 3 way swivel.
cost of swivel + worse presentation + takes longer to tie. This FM rig also allows the bait to slide about a bit before hitting the knot .. a bit like a Carolina rig in that regard
Plot twist, your main line breaks on structure 😮
it will get tangle
It's good for camping ropes too. When yer gotta tie shit to a tree or tie up bigfoot. 👍
The improved clinch knot is nowhere near as strong or easier o make than the Jack Miller knot …it is not the best choice!! 😊
You need a better background. We couldn't see clear how to tight
YEEEET
Those swivels are COMPLETE JUNK. You should be using Ball bearing swivels, but only ball bearing swivels will spin under load. Those plain swivels are complete junk, I quit using them about 3 years ago and so happy I did.
The bonehead shark was a paid actor 😅, all scripted.
Fluoro sliding on fluoro is a bad idea.........
