How this TECHNIQUE will CHANGE your HOOKUP RATIO. The Sinker Guy Method is NEXT LEVEL FISHING.

[@Fishin-Girl]

Thanks for this! I’ve been wondering how to tie this. I know you’ve been killing the fish with this method. Appreciate it! 😊

[@tiracl3953]

Started playing with this after I saw your panhandle fishing report podcast. I was using a long tail end of a snelled hook to add the dangle beads. This is so much smarter and easier!

[@mikehixson3246]

Cool idea...never thought to have the beads dangle off the bottom, great attention getter! Always learning..ty!

[@JustinReedFishing]

Excellent demonstration! Gonna be giving these a try in the Panhandle.

[@FishGuyJer]

Reminds me a lot of my custom spinner rigs (the beads+using them on and below the hook) I use for walleye. Thank you so this!

[@laszlobacs]

I'm new to surf fishing and this video definitely helps getting ready for my first trip. Thanks for sharing. Cheers from Canada.

[@fishnsb]

I didn't expect to learn anything new when I decided to watch. I was wrong, this is a very cool technique and I will be trying this later this evening for tomorrow's rigs. Thanks Chip!

[@thesinkerguy]

Thank you Nathan. Let me know how you do.

[@davidhenry-bd8cd]

Thanks for posting this in such great detail. Better than the Macy’s Day Parade. Hope you had a great Thanksgiving

[@thesinkerguy]

You are so very welcome!

[@tommyo321]

Great idea. Thanks for the tips. Happy Thanksgiving

[@jimleofla]

Outstanding ideas. Love it…. Going to give it a try…. Thanks

[@thesinkerguy]

You will love this

[@fishesfromtupperware]

DANG, here I thought I'd come up with something different (beads on the tag end of a snell) and you guys have it dialed in already (what a surprise)😆 Great job! I just started tying in beads on the tag end of an egg loop on a smaller hook. The egg loop allows you to hold bait without covering the hook. Lil more of a pita to tie but seems worth it. Also thanks for those color combo's! Look forward to giving them a shot!

[@cjahlert]

Received my order and started putting g some rigs together. I've been using float hooks rigs and Salty's rigs for several years and am looking forward to adding your rigs to the arsenal. Thanks for sharing and the tutorial video, it was a huge help.

[@thesinkerguy]

Thank you so much and so excited to see you catch fish!

[@mikestrong3910]

Great video thank you gentlemen!

[@mechanic350]

I'm trying to create an account on your website, but it doesn't allow for new accounts to be create it. only when you have an account can you log in. how can I create one buddy? thanks

[@panhandlefishingadventures]

You just add those combos to a Mortian rig, did you use life bait or fish bites or fish gum.

[@kerrydeshotels9691]

Good question... hope he answers it.

[@thesinkerguy]

I would use crab, shrimp, clams with or without Fishbites or fishgum! Not really fishing it in the majority with live bait! It can be fished with live bait but I usually do not.

[@kerrydeshotels9691]

So you'll fish it without bait sometimes?

[@thesinkerguy]

@@kerrydeshotels9691 never! I always have sometype of bait Fishbites or fresh dead or both.

[@mechanic350]

what's the purpose of the beads. sorry new to surf fishing. do you use these rigs with bait or without?

[@thesinkerguy]

@@mechanic350 the bead is just a color attractant. You will need to use bait or fishbites to help catch the fish.

[@bennylendermon1431]

How did you get the beads over the hook point and barb?

[@thesinkerguy]

Just slide it over.

[@chuckwheeler8259]

What size is the smaller bead on the end? Where are they available? Juat bought some of the other beads from the Sinker Guy

[@shumardi1]

I would like to know that too.

[@charliec2560]

What type of fish do you catch with this rig?

[@markeasterwood1187]

Is there any advantage to the pigtail over putting the beads on the him shank?

[@thesinkerguy]

Just moves a little more!

[@shumardi1]

Would rigging up like this cause the bait to set on the bottom or would it float?

[@bennylendermon1431]

Do you ever use a float along with the beads?

[@thesinkerguy]

Yes but usually I am trying to not use the float to distract the fish. I want them to eat the bead and automatically get hooked!

[@shumardi1]

Does this stay on the bottom or will it rise up at all in the water column?

[@zods1964]

Hey chip. Have question on the fishing mortician rig. Do you only use beads with your snoods or do you use floats as well?

[@thesinkerguy]

I will do both for sure! Beads seem to be more productive during pompano seasons!

[@zods1964]

@@thesinkerguy thank you Chip for your response. One more I see you had beads on the shank of the hook. Did you redrill holes to accommodate that or were the holes big enough for you to slide them on. I apologize for all the questions but I truly love the rig and the way you present the beads on the rig.

[@tommyo321]

Are you putting these beads on each hook of your rigs? Or just one hooks with beads and bare hooks on the other hooks?

[@thesinkerguy]

I do it both ways!

[@tommyo321]

@thesinkerguy849 thanks that's what I'm trying

[@fishingwithgrit3476]

This setup would work well for steelhead or salmon too.

[@thesinkerguy]

We do have some guys using our sinkers and rigs catching both in Washington State. They kill it with it.
