HI Dave, 77 years young been fishing raritan bay sandy hook since the 50's. Have 17' cc fish out out rumson and sayreville ramp. Watched the latest fat dad fishing video and what li loved most about you was that you make your own stuff. I make everything except the fishing reels. Tied rigs for B-P tackle back the 80's and now tie spro like bucktail jigs for a friend of mine who works in a tackle shop. I have also bought the molds and components to make mojo trolling jigs. I have made about 15 rods for myself and made a few to to give to some special friends and my grandson. I guess being old school and come from a time when everyone had to make most repairs at home themselves i'm not very helpfull to the econony. This winter my wife and I pulled up the tile from our kitchen and foyer and put down new laminate flooring. Not too shabby for a couple of 70 year olds. My grandson turns 11 next month and caught the fishing bug. Take out him and my daughter who I have had fishing with me all her life and teaching him the art of drifting for fluke. Have a new secret fluke rig that has been just working great. If you have a private email would share it with you. Call it the polish rig. Ok dave down here tying some jigs and just found your youtube channel. Thanks for sharing all your info. Tight lines..... Walt
I like the hook for the dropper loop. I use my teeth, but sometimes the knots on each side of the loop slide (one knot shifts to the other knot on the other side of the loop - not sure how that happens). Looks like the hook may solve that problem. Great video, Dave.
I find using a hook or nail, the loop stays centered and the knots tighten evenly. If you hold the loop with your teeth, you don't always have it held by the exact center and the knots will even up to one side and shorten the loop. Thanks for watching!
@Frank Schwartz no I don't. But if you mean to a direct plug to leader knot, I use the non slip mono knot. Download the free app "Useful Fishing Knots", very good illustrations.

Nice video Dave!!
Nice vedio, thanks a lot.

@@baysidedave9962 Thanks - and that's exactly what happens with about half my dropper loop ties. Tight lines, bro.
This was extremely helpful. Thank you
Glad it was helpful!
New subscriber this was a simple great video
Amazing video sir thanks !!
I will be great if you do a video for porgy rigs 😀
Thanks for watching. Look for a porgy rig video in the future.
Very helpful, thanks for sharing.
Very good, thanks
Great videos. Thank you. Do you cast these out and let them soak or do you do a slow retrieve with them?
Slow retrieve from shore or drifting off a boat
@@baysidedave9962 thank you. Do you have a video for tying on plugs and lures?
@Frank Schwartz no I don't. But if you mean to a direct plug to leader knot, I use the non slip mono knot. Download the free app "Useful Fishing Knots", very good illustrations.
@@baysidedave9962 thank you.
Best video of making a dropper loop -
wish it was more in a slow motion to see how it is made -
Keep an eye on my channel. I'm going to do more knot and rig tying videos and will slow down on the tying. Thanks for watching and for your response.
Dead Head Dave does it again. Soo easy to follow. Thanks
Thanks Dave
Thank you dave
👍 Thank you…
Do you tie these rigs to your braid or do you keep a tactical clip on your braid or something else?
I clip the barrel swivel end of the rig o to a tactical clip which is tied to my braid with a Palomar knot.
@@baysidedave9962have learnt so much from your videos. Hope to meet you on the island one day.
how do you fish that bucktail rig
In the surf, cast out and let it sink to the bottom. Then use a slow retrieve, jigging the rig every few turns.
@@baysidedave9962 thx, really liked this video. Ill be fishing in Pensacola area, but these rigs should work well for flounder, redfish and black drum
