Rough Ground Rig

£1.39 – £2.05

This rig is designed, as the name implies, for fishing across rough, snaggy and broken ground. A weak link clip is used which holds the weight for casting, but once on the seabed the weight will fall out of the clip but remain attached to the rig via a 10lb breaking strain monofilament link (see diagram). If no snags are encountered when reeling in the entire rig can be retrieved, but if the weight becomes snagged the weak monofilament link will snap and allow the rest of the rig (and any hooked fish) to be reeled in. This rig can be purchased with size 1/0 Cronus Silver Aberdeen or 2/0 Kamasan B940 Aberdeen for anglers fishing for smaller species, while size 3/0, 4/0 and 6/0 hooks are also available for anglers targeting larger species.
