I can't tell you how much your video helps. Jeez, you talked clearly and deliberately. I would be honored to fish with you my man.

Bought a heaver off that guy like 3 weeks ago, he’s the absolute best tackle salesman on the island!

In the Chesapeake bay up on Cedar point Beach we use a double rig with pieces of spot or menheden the size of quarters. In the last 12 years the bay has had many puppy drum up to 10 pounds and some fish over 28". I always use a fish finder rig with large piece of spot or menheden. You must use non off set circle hooks in Maryland. Good luck all.

AWSOME BRO THANKS! BEST FINDER VID I HAVE WATCHED.. FULL STOP!❤

[ArtWilborn]

Thanks. Very informative. I'm fairly new to saltwater fishing and will refer to this several times.

[HicksHooks]

Great information! I've never fished for drum in the fall, and I'm heading down this week. I'll be tying up a few of each! Just subscribed, keep em coming!

[oldhardrock]

What I wonder is the pyramid weight gets buried in the sand or hooked on a rock then a fish is hooked, you'll reel the fish to the buried sinker and boom! Stuck! Does the snap at the weight fail easy enough to get the fish in?

What size hook was at the end of the video? Great job

[tuanzkie]

Thanks for the info! Just curious what your success has been with the cannonball rig for bull drums (without the swivel between hook and slider)?

I bought a lot of these Rigs a couple years ago. They were shipped to me. I tried to reach out to buy more but he said he got a new job. Is there any way I can order more somehow?

So when you're on the beach using something like this, do you just allow slack in your line? I'm used to using a high low rig and a sinker so I'm able to get constant tension on the line. If I have to allow slack in this line so that the hook isn't stuck right next to the weight, wouldn't the wind jerk the bait around? A normal day here, there's enough wind to see a bow in my line even with my rod tipped over.

Thanks for the information you helped me out a lot!!!

Is it alright to use like a 6 inch steel leader as a bite leader?

[bradenengland]

Does the sinker slide have a knot that it stops on on the main line? Or will it slide as far as it wants when needed?

[davetrent]

Great simple and helpful demo. I'll see you in early May and Fin & Feather is gonna be home once again. I lived on the OBX for 7 years year round that remains the best time of my life! Glad I found your channel also a new subscriber/liked visitor. I know that You may know where I get live bait either private cast netting or Wancheese fish house. Drop me a reply. <*}}}}><

[manchapkarm]

Having never used these rigs before, Does having the weight so close to the hook not put fish off ?. My main rigs are 4ft pully rig but i will try this on our beach to try Thanks.

Every time I go into your store I feel like a fat kid at a cake shop.

[mahonrijaussi]

What is your mono lbs you recommend for sliding weight, and length?

[mypronounismaster]

to bead or not to bead
that is the question

[bcask]

Okay, here we go. Every serious drum fisherman I know if they use a bead, puts the bead above the sinker. The bead is to prevent the sinker slide from running up and over your shock knot, nothing else.
