Thanks Tony. Much appreciated 👍👍

Thank you for a informative video and although I will never be fishing from your end of the land as I live on the Isle of Wight I am just going to be getting some black muppets to add to my collection and also will be only using one hook on some of my traces hopefully we all can get out soon once this nasty wind dies down and put your advice to good use 👍

Great educating video love the simplicity of explaining the knot thank you

Thanks very much David, much appreciated.

Thanks for this, heading to Whitby wreck fishing this month (June) very helpful.

Fantastic. I’m defo going to give this a try. Thanks.

Thats the knot I use on my fly fishing leaders I just cut the boom near the knot to make a very good stand off dropper

Exactly the same as me David. Just need a few more twists with the lighter line for fly fishing, so the loop doesn’t close under pressure. Regards, Andy

Those dark colors, (black or dark purple) squid lures or even jigs are lethal in dirt water or at night. And it really doesn't matter what you're working on as far as species goes.

Many thanks for showing this rig as a newbie to wreck fishing it was very helpful. Can you say what bait you have found best, how you attach the bait and how do you fish with this rig ? Many thanks and tight lines

Hi Robert. Many thanks for the kind words. On theses traces at Whitby, we generally use either a whole Squid or a Mackerel fillet. They catch us plenty of Cod and Ling. 👍

hello andy, some great videos mate. just wondering if it would be better to use a rotten botton on the end of your wrecking rig.

@whitbywreckandreeffishing

Жыл бұрын

Thanks very much for the feedback, it's really appreciated. I've personally used rotten bottoms for wrecking in the past and still see a few lads using them now. To be honest, I find they make little difference on the wrecks. More often than not, it's the hooks which seem to get caught up. If a lead gets stuck, I can quite often tease it out of the wreck with my hand, so I don't bother with tying up rotten bottoms. The lads that I do see use them still lose a similar amount of gear. Regards Andy

Hi good video thanks. What brand j hook are you using there please?

Iv got a 6” 30-40lb boat rod with 50lb line on would that be ok to use up there or best just to use his rods?

Where do you get your muppets from and would you be able to set up a 2 hook rig up with a smaller bait below

@whitbywreckandreeffishing

Жыл бұрын

They are the 10” Fish Eagle Muppets. You can tie as many stand off loops as you like on the trace. I only use one loop to minimise tackle losses in the wrecks. Works fine with two and a smaller bait though 👍

@whitbywreckandreeffishing

@@danonline19 you can make the traces on whatever strength line you like. Depends on what you’re targeting and what ground. The lighter the line, the more twists you will need to put in, to stop the knot slipping. I just use 100lb for Cod and Ling on wrecks. I certainly wouldn’t go below 60lb as I want to land what I hook. Regards, Andy

Hi Andy. If I was to lose all my end gear say for instance 8 would you charge me to use yours 🤔

@whitbywreckandreeffishing

Hi Jonathon. Apologies for the delayed response, not sure how I missed this. I always have loads of gear on board, as people regularly run out of leads, or want to use my bait traces instead of the ones they have etc. I can sort out any end gear shortages you might have. 12oz leads are 4 for £5 and the same for bait traces.

I tie a figure of eight loop in each end of the bait trace. The lead is then loop-to-looped on one end and a Crane/Snap Swivel on the end of the reel braid connects the other end. Hope that makes sense.

Thanks for that. Is there any advantage in using mono over fluoro for tying these rigs? Is it just that mono is cheaper?

@@mattdaniels6873 I personally prefer prefer Flourocarbon for longer flowing traces (uptiding in particular) as it straightens better than mono, doesn’t have as much memory. For wrecking and rough ground, I don’t think there’s any benefit to using it. 100lb mono works really well for me, in the applications we use.
