Need help with this rig...

Bob H - 1-21-2005 at 09:56 AM

I like to shore fish with squid for bait. I have looked all over the internet trying to find out how to rig a "drooper loop". Can someone explain it? Is it possible to by this already made up at a tackle shop?
Gracias

Bufeo - that's great! I guess it can be called drooper or dropper loop.
THANKS!

Wow, check this one out... a twisted dropper loop! Makes is simple to add a hook to the end of the loop.

What would you use for surf fishing ? I have never done it - but plan too next time in San Felipe - any info would be great :P

Bob there is a double dropper loop made of wire attached to a section of line called a catfish rig. They're available in Kmart and fishing supply stores.

whistler, this allso makes a great halibut set up with a trap set up( treble with a slide hook). allways match your sinker with the bottem terrain or you will go through a lot of sinkers.:coolup:
