Pulley Rig - Winter Shore Fishing - Cod, Ray, Bass, Conger Eel Rig 

- I have posted links for the components for making these rigs in the video description. 😊👍🏻🎣

John, your going to have to publish a book Pocket book of Fish Locker Tips n Traces 😉. I reckon it would make a great seller. Great video again👍

Hi mate I'm Tom just subscribed and hit the bell. I'm 71 and just going back into match fishing. That was a brilliant video. I will start binge watching. Take care and stay safe. Tom.

A very good mate of mine who does a lot of sea fishing himself wasn’t aware of your channel until I told him about it, he is mightily impressed and has subscribed to your channels , he’s happy out now 👍😀

Every day is a school day with your channel! What seem to many like just small details are in fact the very key elements of a successful fishing trip on the boat or shore. Thanks for this one, I thought I knew all about pulley rigs until I watched this!!! Cheers

I'll be getting these ready through lockdown, along with some pulley droppers ready for when lockdown is over. Cheers John, quality content as ever. One love

well explained john easy to follow

Great video John with lots of great tips & instructions. If I could go fishing I would certainly be using your tips, they seem SO practical. Cheers, Don from South Aust.

Seems like the part that would be sacrificed is the most expensive part of the rig. Very interesting and helpful. Enjoyed.

Thank you John. That was explained fantastically, love the videos in the workshop, I learned so much. Nice one mate.

I have just started making this rig with the interchangeable hook length as shown in this video. 👍 great for changing between both pulley pennel and pulley wishbone rigs as required. I’ve also started using rotten bottom clips over snaggy ground with good success 👍👍

just happened to be online and the notification popped up , I have to say John that you covered another version of this rig in a past video and hands up yes i copied them and have had some great nights using them , Great video and some great knowledge on your channel for the beginners that watch them .. So there you have it im on time for a change , Take care mate and thanks for sharing ..

Great video and super informative as usual! Had to comment to thank you using a clip for the hook snood has increased the time I have bait in the water by at least 15/20% per session! So much less Faff and so obvious but I’d never done it until I watched your video! Happy New year to you and the family and tight lines 🎣

Well explained John. Good tutorial well filmed. Nice job matey.

Nicely explained and clear instructions on the pulley rig John ideal for an angler who wants to tie his own rigs or a beginner, tight lines mate

Hi John... Excellent .... as always , easy to understand.

Great film John

Great video, knots and rigs made simple, well done 👍

Very nice rig indeed I use something similar when pike fishing but not so much the pulley rig but along the same lines.Take care to you and the family John it’s coming again pal so stay safe all the very best from Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Hey man, Made a few of these rigs up for the first time and tested them out down dog point near flushing I believe it's called and landed my first Ray. Great rig and simple to make :) Tried the up and over but found they came back snarled up a lot and untangling line isn't one of my favourite things to do so the pulley rig is my weapon of choice now for sure. Cheeers :D

Wow never seen this before - thanks so much for your time and creativetivity

Thanks for the tutorial, off to chessil over Christmas for cod using the penell rig

Canny tutorial bud. This is one of my favourite rigs for fishing up here on the north east coast on the rock marks. Tight lines Charlie 🎣🎣

Great vids, and instructions on rigs, keep up the good work.

Some .great tuition john thanks for that

Hi John just had to hit the bell again nearly missed this one great information , take care stay safe stay well Manchester UK.

explained nice and clearly john easy to follow

Pulley rigs are great 😁 Sweet video dude 👍

at a loss can not get my head round fishing with a french boom help,,, great videos love the foraging videos come in handy up here on the western isles

Great video as always and well explained, I will be trying this here in Spain as we fish a lot of rocky shore

Thx loads of info from Scotland 💛💛💛💛🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Great video, brilliantly explained

Great video. learnt loads!

Cheers John. Brilliant video and very well explained, Have tied 4 up ready to go for my next trip to caister on sea beach on Monday. Hope, i catch some doggies or smoothhouds cheers

Being someone who doesn't like plastic , I make my pulleys from 316 ss wire , 1mm dia. You'll be surprised if you work and realize how many beautiful and practical designs come from a piece of cleverly twisted wire .

very informative thank you, thoroughly enjoyed the video cheers, I have subscribed

Your cousin across the pond... great videos... looking at trying your pulley rig at the beach in the spring... we don’t have the Sputnik weights with the extra hook for the fishing hook to clip too.. so have to tie the rig the other way you do it...

Better than working the door in Whitby. 😂

Excellent content !!

Cheers mate, Tight lines

Amazing video !!! Thank you!

You're the best fisherman on RU-vid. Keep it up bud

Awesome bro 👍

Really helpful. Thank you mate.

I use an all mono version of this rig at times... nice explanation ...

Hello, I'm new to sea fishing and I have found your video very helpful and informative. You explain things really easily to understand and replicate. I've subscribed to your channel. Thank you.

awsome thanks dude :-)) love salt fisching 🙂

This video was So good I added it to my play list 🤣 👍👌🏻

Thanks for this video, its helped me alot

Aha! John's back in the Workshop! Nice one John, good clear demonstration and always good to see how other people do things. I thought a 'Canny link' was something from up your home part of the world - doesn't sound very Cornish! I was also wondering if a Canny link would help with Wifey's rotten bottom? 🤣🤣 Thanks for that mate - stay safe & well! 👍👍

Really really well explained thank you

Great for bass over rough ground.

Hallo Mr Best Of the Best Video 👍

John, have a look at Trident tackle range of rig making kit, I am not affiliated with them in any way. I normally use Gemini but Trident is cheaper and the latest in technical development. Also recommend you try Kastking braid, plenty of choice by way of range, quality and price but excellent value. I was fishing from my 15 ft Sea hog about 10 years ago close to the shore line in Donegal bay Ireland, when I hooked up to a nice conger and when I got him to the surface I discovered that he had been previously caught and had a hook through his jaw and the line was attached to broken boat rod with a really nice Abu reel still mounted on the rod, I had simply hooked the rod and when I began to wind in the conger was just a by catch. Anyway I freed the eel and salvaged the reel but the rod was knackered. I reckon he had been hooked no more than 48 hours previously and had caught the angler by surprise and pulled the rod and reel over board. Anyhow I was fishing alone and had no camera, so no evidence to prove my story unfortunately. I was and still am a big fan of Mr Graeme Pullen but I think you are the new kid on the block who sets the bar for the rest and there are some very talented and interesting individuals out there. I appreciate the quality and content of your videos and your all round knowledge of the marine environment and its creatures. Crack on lad.

Well explained 👍

Very clear and well thought out video. Id like to know, them glow in the dark beads, spoons or leads, do they really attract fish, and if so what fish respond to them? Thanks.

Nice and simple, nicely explained, I prefer the blue Gemini pulley beads myself. just wondering why the large sliding boom style clip to the hook length and not a smaller Gemini clip or trident terma link? Each to their own, I get that, just wondered if there was a specific reason for a larger clip? All the best John 👍

Morning John, I hope you and your family had a good Christmas. Thanks for the video, very helpful. It’s slightly unrelated to the rig but I have seen you use a T bar disgorger before, I received a Gemini disgorger and understand the principle but wondered how you slide it to the bend of hook to turn it when you have a nice size cod bait wrapped to the hook, to me that stops you getting the disgorger to the bend? If you have some time to reply (or even a quick video :p that would be amazing!) thanks Ben.

Very helpful indeed. I am presuming the main line to the reel attaches to the pulley bead, am I correct? I’m just getting back into sea fishing from the beach and my knowledge of contemporary tackle is virtually nil.

Great tutorial, is there a generic hook size or type that could be used to catch a variety of species rather than targeting 1 type thanks

Dont know if you have done a video on preferred hook sizes for various species . If not would you think of doing one please. Thanks

Hello John. I’m an Australian angler who enjoys exploring techniques and tackle from other countries. We don’t really use pulley rigs in Australia. We use star sinkers with a Paternoster rig. But I’d like to try the pulley rig with my Alvey side-cast reel. Most of the UK videos on the pulley rig don’t show it with the bait on. I’m curious what it looks like, and how well it works with a large bait, like a whole pilchard? Thanks for your channel. David

Thanks

Quick question about shockleaders ive seen so may say shockleaders are a must for sea fishing so I'm gonna hafto get one if I'm using mono line and mono leader would it adjust the bite detection and affect casting distance

Hi John. Brilliant channel, keeping me going during a lockdown where I could get to the beach with my gear but couldn’t get back up the hill home - so frustrating ! Anyway, picking up on David Allen’s comment below, which leg of the rig is the shorter one - weight to swivel or swivel to hook ? Logically I would have thought weight to swivel so that that takes the strain during casting with the heavier line, but I’m not sure from watching the video. This may be because I have the volume low to avoid another ‘are you watching that man again’ comment from the armchair on the other side of the fireplace....

We use these rigs a lot on the suffolk beaches they are great but we do find you loose a bit of bite detection with them.

Can you please let me know how I avoid damaging the bait when I attach the hook on to the IMP

Can you explain the reason for the protruding spikes coming out of the lead weight please ?

What’s the best size braid to use off the beach fishing

Hi,have you ever tried circle hooks using pulley rigs? If so,what do you think about it?

Can I ask what breaking strain your main line is, before you attach this to your leader. I'm a beginner and was trying my new gear out today, but my line kept snapping. My main line it braid 16lbs attached to 17-65lbs leader with a 6oz weight, the line always snapped where it attached to the leader, do you know what the problem could be, do you think I should change my main line to a bigger breaking strain ? Thanks

Thank you Sir i live in Palm Coast Florida USA never seen pulley rigs ! Where can I buy them

It has been a while, and I have been very busy haha, but I am back now. I am sorry for being gone for a long time. Back to the catch and cook now 🙂🙂

Hi , you did a weak link for release the weight, and what about the hook? We should not put a weak line in the hook to release the hook and don't lose the shock leader and body rig?

Im still watching but this should be applicable to catfish fishing in the middle of the USA right? They're bottom feeders and fighters, also we usually have to fight rocks so ima send this to my husband 😁😁 thank you for sharing man 😁😁

hi there fish locker workshop guru, where are you based what area buddy as Ive been out the angling game too long and would love to have had a few hours coaching from you if it was at all possible? Great video and keep this fantastic coaching advice going if you can, all the very best mate ;)

hi John, unrelated question can I catch anything from a sandy beach using a lure?

Hi fella. Can you tell mee what size Sabiki hooks you use for a) Mackerel and b) Bass, Wrasse or Pollack. Cheers 🍻

I need a Fishlocker Workshop channel for freshwater fishing!

Does it matter what style/colour line you use when beach fishing with rigs ? Meaning line visiblity or memory

Could you use this rig for up-tide?

Fish locker do u use any pre made sea fishing have noticed alot places sell rigs that are already made just wondering are pre made ones anay good compared to making your own and is the mutfh off a price difference in doing so

can this rig be used from a boat as well as the beach?

what is difference than running ledge i am confused!!

Hi John, I assume that these rigs will work equally well on uptide fishing as well. Am I correct? Thanks Keith

Hi mate where can I get the clips from?

Surely having all the load of casting on the hook/lighter braking strain hook length is a bad idea. Shockleader of 10lb per oz of lead is the safe way to go ?

When fishing off Porlock Weir which is very rocky I used to use old spark plugs with a weak link or as we used to call them rotten bottoms. Had a few reasonable coal fish in quite close that way!

Hi - great videos - QUESTION - how do you remove the barb from a hook??

Where can I buy pully rigs thank you

Love your manner and your explanations. Pity the camera is fixed on your head and not down on the table so we can see what you're doing. An extra camera with a little editing will go along way. Love the topic and your content.

Hi John, I hope you are well. Do you have an on-line shop? would be great if I could purchase some of your rigs.

I wouldn’t use anything on my pulleys but the trident ones most auto dynamic gadgets on the market

Diagrams diagrams diagrams that is our best friend to understand

Your rigs are with 80lbs but wouldn't you want you weak link less than your main line so less the 20lbs? Curious

Does anyone make these rigs and sell them in the USA?

Could you add a flapper to the hook length on this rig? Or is that a bad idea?

Hi Question not about this video but after your advice. Bought a sl20sh on your recommendation. Will it cast small lures or do i need a different set up. Videos are great content really enjoying learning Thanks in advance Sime

Hi John could you adapt this rig for weir fishing ? keep safe tight lines

👍
