Need help with this rig...


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
Bob H

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

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.
