Hi everyone, I'm new to the forum and have a few small questions.
Next week, my family will be holidaying out at Freycinet Lodge, Tasmania. Previous experiences have rewarded us with plenty of squid off of the rocks. This year, amongst other things, we will be experimenting with Baited Jigs.
We don't know much about these, or moreso, how you use them. Is it sensible just to tie a baited jig onto the end of a line with a swivel, or does this just get snagged due to weight. Also, is it practical to use them in a paternoster rig if fishing off shore for flatties and squid? Lastly, is it possible to use them in a float rig?
If anyone could please be so kind to answer with some diagrams for the various rigs, general techniques for Baited Rig fishing, or even how to retrieve with the different rigs, it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Squid Boy!
