  • This video shows how to make a DIY sabiki rig for catching bait that will save you money and time (check out the way we have a replaceable weight at the end of the Sabiki rig).
    Best of all, this method allows you to quickly build your own custom sabiki rig so that you can save money in not buying the expensive ones at the store.
    And be sure to watch until the end because there's a tip on how you can make the homemade sabiki rig work better than the store-bought kind.
    Here's a list of bait fish that a sabiki rig can catch:
    threadfin
    pinfish
    cigar minnows
    croakers
    grunts
    whitebait
    pilchards
    mojarra
    pigfish
    Best of all, you can control the size bait you catch by the size of the hook that you use...
    Use a larger hook for bigger bait, and shrink everything if you want to catch the small ones too.

    We have been using this rig at the pier alot. We catch more than enough pinfish. usually end up letting some go or sharing them. The reaction on peoples faces when you reel in 2-3 at a time is priceless.

    Thank you for all your instructional videos, great DIY Sabiki rig, I pass by schools of bait fish on my flats boat and sometimes they move so fast that you've missed your chance to net them, this is great because you can grab your rod and flick it right to them. Right on!

    • @chrisz.9974
      @chrisz.9974 7 лет назад +1

      Salty Beard Sabiki rods help so much. They hide the hooks and the end of the rod it's self acts as a dehooker. Just grab and go. I tie a snap swivel to the end to I can just clip on the rigs.

  • @gee3883
    @gee3883 5 лет назад +2

    Nice tips dude. One thing I have experimented with when fishing for smelt is a small piece of rig foam on the hook next to the eye, it makes the bait balance mid water a bit like a diver but it gives the bait a very natural presentation. One tip for you is don't cut the Gulp put it on the hook and cut it once its on the hook its easier to handle,, tight lines.

    Wow this is how I was tought about 50 years ago and we didn't have plastic and used red and white yarn, doubled over in the loop. I still have the pack of yarn my grand ma gave me and caught untold number of squid and other small fish use later as bait. just getting back into fishing after raising family and now wife and I are alone. And I've got time for myself and friends

    Hi Luke , I’m enjoying your vids immensely ..Thank you . I believe that I’m an above average fisherman at age 85 .My leg issue is keeping me off the Cape Cod Canal and I’m about to pursue porgies/ flounder..I’m excited about this ..Your method of tying this sabiki rig is the way to go ..although 6” isn’t easy to maintain, but you have to get past that first level..Lastly ,you mentioned damaged grubs ending up in gulp juice . If they sell it separately where may I purchase it ? Thanks again, Bob Peck

    Hi Luke ,
    I’ve been following you for a while and like your approach..Your presentation is do easy and simple. I’m fishing for porgys and flounder and was wondering if size 4 or 6 would suffice using salty squid tentacles ..I really like this setup. Thank you

    • @Saltstrong
      @Saltstrong  5 лет назад

      Thanks for the kind words Robert! The hook size should be chosen based on the size of the bait that you'll be using. So either 4 or 6 could work depending on how big the tentacles are.

  • @michaelmanning1180
    @michaelmanning1180 Год назад

    Always just referred to these as gold hook rigs back in the day. I guess someone decided to fancy it up with the sabiki name. The greenies where so greedy we could get away with nothing but the gold hooks. Adding bait of any type was great for attracting little dork jacks or runners.

  • @WaynJul
    @WaynJul 8 лет назад

    I caught some sow flounder and the were spitting up 4" perch. I can catch some perch for bait. Good video.

  • @davidcollins1705
    @davidcollins1705 5 лет назад

    Thanks for the video. Have you tried just making loops with the surgeon knot but without the hooks threaded - similar to the sinker? That way u can switch the hooks, like the sinker, and thread over glow beads and other attractants.

    • @davidcollins1705
      @davidcollins1705 5 лет назад

      Maybe the hook eye holes are too small ...

    • @Saltstrong
      @Saltstrong  5 лет назад

      Yes, that works great for making dropper rigs. But the reason I didn't do it in this video is because the sabiki hooks had eyelets that were too small to allow a doubled line to go through them.

    • @Saltstrong
      @Saltstrong  8 лет назад +3

      Croakers are hard to beat when going after the big reds. But pinfish are great too... best to have both and see which one works best for the particular day/tide.

    Hello. Nice video. I wanna try a sabiki rig now... But im confused about something. When you watch video shorts of ppl using them. They never catch more than one fish so why the need for all the extra hooks. I admit im not too experienced yet but it seems strange. Is it just to get the rig noticed? I cant imagine that either cause assoon as the bait hits the surface all the fish in the area look up for it. Anyone can watch this happen

    • @Saltstrong
      @Saltstrong  11 месяцев назад

      It just depends on how many fish are in the school and if they're tempted to eat.

    do your surgeon knots on the hooks ever slip and run down to the hook when you're pulling the tag ends to pull it tight?

    • @Saltstrong
      @Saltstrong  4 года назад

      No. The surgeon knots stay in place once they are pulled tight.

  • @bankfishingislife5484
    @bankfishingislife5484 Год назад

    swivel is better for when you are getting bigger bait and more space between the hooks to make sure they dont get off as easy i like using 6 hooks for skipjack because i do commercial trotlines so the faster i get the bait the better. and ya if i can cast net i will but if not sabiki is good alternative.i think you should do little red bead and some of that flash paper stuff i think they make it where its like a sticker so you can easily add it also and also some strands to it. i have had rigs that lose all the extra flash and the hooks never do as good on skipjack at least. though they can still catch its just not as efficient. and when you are trying to bait 600 hooks or 1200 hooks at a time the faster you get the bait in the cooler the better. gl out there its still a good rig just needs the extras though.
