BEST method for LIVE BAIT fishing

the carolina rig will never fail #fishing #shorts

[@marksprecher7872]

LISTEN TO THIS MAN HE IS SPOT ON IT .THIS RIG IS ONE OF THE BEST

[@Kobewankenobiofficial]

It's the only rig I use for bottom fishing

[@anthonymannarino3376]

There’s only 3 ways to fish live bait with lead. Knocker rig, Jupiter rig, or the rig he’s showing. Every young kid starts out fishing lead this ways. Any other rigs used are for small fish. not tarpon, not snook, not Redfish, kingfish, ex ex

[@specfisherman6433]

I agree I have been using the Carolina rig for years and it almost never fails

[@sr1491]

In the Great Lakes, we call it bottom bouncing

[@georgeblack5821]

My girl is always bottom bouncing.

[@trevolandwarika2356]

We call it drifting 😅

[@pyneface5415]

Everytime I try doing this while bottom fishing I 100% of the time get snagged on the bottom. 😅😢

[@edwardshighonstreetlife]

Too much weight try with low weight

[@pyneface5415]

Thanks for the suggestions. I will try them out!

[@timorhynorthamsr4750]

To much weight.

[@farzadrezazadeh4820]

Unfortunately your spot is not good for this rig. I catch monster snappers with that rig in my area

[@birdbig1]

In line circle hooks don't snag nearly as much as j hooks.

[@profett4191]

Rolled spawn sacs, nightcrawlers, smelt, etc in the surf for steelhead and browns for 50 years with egg-sinkers in West Michigan. Great method in the right locations.

[@jewwyjones9760]

No bead(s) on either side of the weight? Carolina born and raised here 👋 and I’m just poking fun. This man is a low key legend. Been watching the videos for years now. Great success!

[@brandondyer6546]

I use 4 - 8 ¼ ounce egg sinkers with a float and let it move until i have to cast again.

[@Sarconthewolf]

Used that method a lot. Good call

[@Side85Winder]

In Australia we call that rig a running sinker rig. There is a veriation where instead of attaching the sinker on the main line we use a swivel and a length of line to create a drop sinker but it still can run up and down the main line. This version we call a western port rig, its better in very high current and keeps your bait off the bottom a little. I use a running clip swivel so i can interchange sinker size or change to a drop sinker.

[@yassinerah2415]

We use same method in Morocco.... Good luck buddy

[@anthonymannarino3376]

That would only work on Sandy bottoms with no rocks. So sure. A better is a Jupiter rig. Put your egg sinker inbetween 2 swivels useing about 3 to 5 inches of line .

[@yungwest8311]

Hey Dan!!! Super big fan of yours I wanted to know for this type Of fishing you just drop to the bottom like a dropper loop style like rock fish bottom fishing ?? I’m going soon in two weeks to Catalina for My birthday out of 22nd landing !! I’m excited hopefully I’ll be able to meet you one day all I do is watch your videos and gain knowledge from them and you :) - Rory

[@mryorkie]

Popping cork works just as good.. just saying.. 😊

[@farzadrezazadeh4820]

Good method. It is called strayline rig in New Zealand

[@juanpgarcia6862]

Nice shirt man

[@syv-tc2bi]

How can I do this if current is slightly faster and water is a little deeper? I try for this and it seems to just drift before it gets to bottom

[@MonkeySauce-tu5jm]

Yeah if it’s a little faster and you got fish that hang on bottom like snook don’t be scared to throw even a 3 oz

[@GiuseppeCannamela]

length of the arm from the lead to the hook

[@clmwrx]

I often do basically the same thing fishing the Tennessee river

[@robertapreston4200]

15# leader? What size line?? Catching small fish only?

[@MonkeySauce-tu5jm]

15# line

[@bodmrb]

What kind of fish was the first one you caught? I just caught that one too!

[@georgeblack5821]

That's called a "Sea Robin".

[@BobelPop]

@@georgeblack5821 They basically the hardhead catfish of the northeast from what I hear.

[@jackxiao9702]

Would this work from the shore of a river or lake?

[@lextaxtv5844]

i must try this.thanks

[@marsmars-ru3gu]

How it work?

[@nicksmith5748]

What about if fish with live menhaden? Carolina rig is still good? It will be in intercostal water that has a decent current.

[@gennerobootz6490]

Yeah, but if you’re boat Is drifting, it’s fine

[@edwardshighonstreetlife]

That would be drifting your bait you are all techniquel it confuses us simple fisherman I do like your show but some times you explain things the long route when you can take the short route

[@fzee4857]

Where is this at? Texas?

[@PRINCE_175]

I’m trying to figure out how that size egg sinkers drifts down stream while your popping that your bait, and you are parallel of the downstream ??? The bait & sinkers is coming back to the boat… unless I’m misunderstanding.I cast with the same rig but cast downstream & pop up stream & catch fish like Jesus disciples did with the fishing net 😂

[@JFunk717]

The current pushes the bait fish a certain direction. Anything facing or traveling the wrong direction, is bad presentation. Not saying it never works, but it doesn’t look natural. The method in the video looks like a fish fighting the current and losing…

[@PRINCE_175]

@@JFunk717 I understand but your egg sinker looks like a 2 or 2 1/2 oz that tells me that the water isn’t that deep,even though that current must be strong where are you are to push that egg sink or like that because here in Georgia we use that size for cat fishing…..and it just sits there….even in a lite moving water…not saying it not possible but I would love too see that

[@JFunk717]

He’s fishing an inlet. Tides get to ripping hard and fast at times. That sinker won’t hold well in strong current, but it will still sink and keep your bait facing the right direction.

[@JFunk717]

Keep doing what you find works for you. If you’re catching fish, you’re doing fine! The only thing I would be concerned about is in your presentation, your bait is “winning” against the current, whereas in real life, the bait fish don’t win against the current.

[@MonkeySauce-tu5jm]

It’s a small egg sinker so it can easily drift also it can roll

[@jbl2270]

Experienced fishermen: this does not get snagged in high cover areas like corals?

[@Tyborz]

It does, that's why you don't use it in areas with coral. You would use a hi low rig and cast it directly into the reef. And btw, adding "experienced fisherman" doesn't add any validity to your comment.

I want you r fishing rode..

Quantas gramas é o chumbo?

[@BreakitDownBarneyStyle]

Looks like 2 ounces

[@luizscheunemann5916]

@@BreakitDownBarneyStyle Thanks!

[@PaFisherman]

@@BreakitDownBarneyStylelooks smaller than 2 oz, not sure. Crazy thing is that tied will drag a 2 oz top and bottom rig as well. The major difference is that fish doesn’t feel the weight. That should be emphasized more.

[@JY-cj2xu]

will it get stuck?

[@noassociation85]

1000% speculation 😅

[@SliqqWOTB]

We call it .. use a bobber lmao

[@PaulTaylor-ko8jy]

Ok

[@Ryanryan-sd9yw]

Float works better

[@DEVIL-ml4tz]

that’s dead bait
