Make sure the double hitch knot above the sinker is tight or you could add another loop to it keep it from slipping. Shorten up the line from the knot to the hook might help too. I hope this helps and thanks for watching.
That's a clinch knot you used to attach swivel to line. Also if that knot is slipping you should use the improved clinch knot, not just leave a small tag end
That double loop knot is a surgeons loop . And if you get hung up it won’t pull out , a single overhand knot is better because it will pull out . Where did you learn to tie rigs ,at Pep Boys?
I actually tie a second hook , snelled eagle claw RIGHT at the bottom, the snags happen. But my lowest and closest hook to the bottom always catches the most. I always do 2 hook. Nothing better than two Togs at a time
The knot in the swivel , should have been a Trilene knot which would have been a double through the eye not a single like you made . You also kinked the leader for pulling down with all those twists , with the Trilene knot only needed three turns .
1) for the knot tot he swivel try using an improved clinch knot they are less likely to slip also wet it before pulling on the knot at all you damaged the line the friction heat seriously lowers the breaking strength. 2 )a small improvement would be to make the sinker loop very small and add a short section of lighter line so if you are fighting a fish and he hangs up your weight in the structure only the weight will break off.
I like bank sinkers too, but for Tog people also use cannonball, coin, and other flat sinkers. With Tog you need a simple rig because you get snagged all the time!
First when you tied the line to the swivel you did damage to the mono by pulling so hard! no need. Then later you kepp yanking on the mono in another step. Again wrong! A steady pull after being lubricated is all you need. Sorry ,but thats how I see it!
clean voice,very well explained video, 10/10 💯
Thank you!
Thank you! This rig was productive for both porgy and sea bass as well.
Thank you for watching, I'm glad the rig worked for you.
Great video and very easy to understand.
But every time I'm done the hook is sitting down farther than the sinker.
What am I doing wrong?

Nice simple rig, thanks.
Thanks for watching!
Great rig but I went to every tackle shop in New York and none of them carry squibbles.
🤣🤣🤣 I messed up! "SWIVELLLLL" 😂😂😂
@@DowntoEarthFishing 🤣🤣🤣I know. Catch em up man!
The New York season starts next week. I can't wait
Heck yeah!!
😂
Very simple, nice.
Glad you like it!
Cool rig Brother!
Thanks 👍
What is the name of jig in your video? I like the color. Thank you
I bought them on Etsy. Just type in "Tog Jigs" you find them.
Do you use a rod that can handle the 3 os sinker or a rod for lighter sinker?
The rod I use for this rig is rated from 1 to 4oz. I would stay with the rod rating not the lighter setup.
very nice set-up i will try it next time i go fishing

not to mention he says to go through 5 times and he does three, wow
That purple Jig is pretty. Haha. I agree bro. On deep waters on a boat , I use standoff rig 3 oz lead
Thanks my guy ✌🏾
Thank you!
Great video. Thanks for the help 🤙
Glad it helped!

That's a terrible idea for Tog. 1 hook only
Or two hooks in the same bait

Quá dử luôn anh ơi 🎉🎉🎉
You may want to try using an octopus hook instead of a bait holder hook.
Could definitely give that a try. Thanks :D!
Why do?
Before the Gammi Octs gained popularity in the 90's, a Mustad virginia hook was the standard. Kinda looks like a bait holder with an offset.
That bait holder hook stinks, I’ve used them before and they break with any pressure on the shaft .

I'm 100% agreed and thanks for the tips too! :D
Absolutely 💯. I use eagle claw.. in buzzards bay mass.there buried in rocks. Loose lots of rigs. I couldn't afford gamakatsu. Hahah
Bank sinkers are the only ones to use. The others get snagged easy. Plus bank sinkers are cheap
Nice work .... but check out ... fishing with motorcycle mike.. on long Island n y ... we get blacks to lol ...
Thanks, I'm checking out on your videos too!
Squavel.
😂😂😂 Took me 2 days to figure this out LOL!
@@DowntoEarthFishing lol, it's cool.

Just joking Awsome job 👍
Thanks! :D
Sophmoric. No improved clinch, should us e triple surgeons loop , no way for sinker to breakaway, not a correct snell knot. Otherwise its Ok...
The Trilene knot is far superior to that clinch knot .
What the heck is a squivvel..lol
I don't know either LOL!
It's like a sqabbit
Every aspect of this tutorial was wrong
Just make a sinker loop and a dropper loop above for the hook and then tie on the swivel! No need to do it the way your doing it.
This allows you to tie the hook snell instead of just hanging the hook onto the dropper loop.
That’s the wrong way to tie this rig. It’s not a stand off knot
If you're using crabs for bait they have to be on the bottom or you're not gonna catch nothing
