My personal favourite rig for the skate is a beefed up, running up and over. Straight through 250lb with a 10/0 wide gaped hook which is down to personal preference. I’ve never really had much luck with the Pulley rig. We managed out the first 200lber up in Shetland a couple of weekends ago! Good luck to you Andy once you get back out on them!
Fist thing you want to do with those rigs is cut them in half ,they will just tangle ,believe me ,a normal 4ft pulley is best and 100% they will bite through 150lb Iv had it and its gutting ,Scott also had the same this year ,250lb trace minimum ,just picked up some 350lb for trace
@@paddington3028 I’ve heard mixed reviews on the dongle for skate. I’ve heard folks say it works well and I’ve heard of a few folks deep hooking fish as well as they just engulf the baits. All down to personal preference of fishing style!

Good luck Tom, you did well with your fish with Andy the other night.
Was up in shetland fishing with shetland angling adventures a little while ago. top rods if you want to catch some good fish and big skate!
I'd highly recommend if your looking to catch some proper fish tom
@@jimmyj2040 aye it was a good 120lb male skate you had when up here. You’ll need to get back up for a cast in the future 🎣
@kieranllewellynfishing don't worry pal I definitely will, was a nice 200lb skate aidan had the other weekend. Wouldn't mind one of those
I really need to have to short drive to fish for the skate.

When I go up next year I plan on using a 10/0 circle dongle. What do you guys reckon.
