Thanks a million! I have been using a sliding second hook but it was pissing me off...no matter how tight it was snelled on, the second hook would sometimes slide down and ball up the baitfish... plus, I've lost big fish because the second hook was pulled down hard and cut the knot holding tail hook.
I've retied everything by your method. It is much stronger and presents the bait naturally.

I use this method for fly tying articulated streamers . Simple and fast . Thanks for sharing.

You helped me do my first Snell, owe ya a carton 🤙

Interesting, I always snell both hooks, I find it an advantage when fishing strip baits or whole squid, but I can see the point of your way with liveys

Nice little tip video though 🙂

That works for me, yet my hookup rate is a lot different to yours... Thanks for sharing

Hi Greg. Great detail on how to tie thanks for sharing. I use the snell rig a lot but tie it directly to the wind on to eliminate the swivel in your rig for floating baits down. I have only ever down max 8 wraps around hook shank, will try your recommendations.

this is what i use when bait fishing always, only downside is if the fish has a chance to break the bottom hook if it has teeth. But that's fishing for you

Can you please make a vid where the top hook is tied first. I like to use leader to mainline via an FG when fishing for snapper around reefs, hence leading to a few snags along the way. The method in this vid will require a new FG to be tied every time a rig is lost which will be a pain.
Cheers for the vid

Is there any tutorial on how to tie weight few inches up with this rig?

[garyroenicke]

I’ve never had an issue wrapping either way and only use 7 wraps

[lukaas]

Kudos for shooting this so beautifully - simple but effective - Black background, correct magnification . thanks

I prefer the top hook be sliding…by creating a snell with a separate line. That way you can adjust as needed.

To catch half and one kg sea bream what type hooks are better circle semi circle or what type ?

[scottyzfishing]

Nicely demonstrated Greg 👌 how's that flatty thumb though all raspt up 😂

[mrBDeye]

This is not a proper snell knot. If it were done correctly there wouldn’t be line crossing over the wraps.

Pretty good; however, this rig isn't adjustable. There's a sliding rig, where the front hook can slide, making it easy to adjust for different bait sizes.
