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.
Great video! I’m teaching my 10 year old twins to make & fish sabiki rigs & your technique seems like it will be dead easy for them. Yay little bait factories! Thanks as always for your excellent, clear tutorials!
The best SABIKI rig and tip I have seen yet.... Simple is always the best... Thanks always enjoy your videos.. Heading to myrtle beach in a week will definitely give these some work
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!
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.
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.
I made one after seeing this video, thanks! I put 5 on mine and used 3 different hook sizes, one small, one medium and 2 large for the various species.
Thanks for making time to leave the nice comment Ponce. Yes, a used tail-bitten Gulp bait can go a long way on a sabiki rig for catching bait.... here's a video where I caught 10 pinfish on one single tiny chunk of gulp without ever having to replace it:) www.saltstrong.com/articles/how-to-catch-pinfish/
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
I like to tie a loop with out the hook like you did for the weight. That way you can swap out the hooks when they break or a barracuda decides to bite them in two.
great video for sabiki rig I'm going totry to catch some live bait I'm a googan I got the stuff [24 wellcraft , 300 etec , all tackle, rods and reels] but know how to catch live bait ive caught small grunts do you think dolphin will hit grunts thanks Luke for your time John
An excellent video and lesson. However, at $1.16 at Walmart I wonder if it's just worth buying them. Of course there is satisfaction in making it as well. I'll probably do both. I always appreciate people that take the time to help others and for that Sir I thank you as well!
I fish freshwater, just found they use this subiki rig to catch freshwater bait also. Wanting to try this. It just use the bare hook? Think that may work for freshwater also? Very good video, thanks for sharing.
I have a bunch of small hooks laying around. I think I will just use some of those and make one. I caught some sow flounder and the were spitting up 4" perch. I can catch some perch for bait. Good video.
I started tying bucktail jigs. I wonder if I tied a couple pieces of hair or some flash if it would catch pilchards. I'm gonna have to test it out and see.
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.
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.
thanks bro very helpful. now u've give me an idea...i can do the "T knot" as well after tieng the hooks. i can have an equal distance between the hooks and having an equal length of hook line from the main line. thanks.
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
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.

Thanks Anthony!

Thanks for making time to leave the nice comment Carter!
Nice setup! I'd still put snap swivel on either end so I can pop it on and off as I need bait. Thanks for the vid!
I made one after seeing this video, thanks! I put 5 on mine and used 3 different hook sizes, one small, one medium and 2 large for the various species.

Cool that you have a terrrazo floor. I live in Florida too but can't convince my wife to just remove the bad tile and keep the original terrazo floor.
did the exact same rig and i caught some mackerel thanks
เยี่ยมมาก
a nice orange is good or orange bead because it looks like the eggs on a sand flea. tiny chunk of fresh shrimp works great too
thanks nice video very helpful going to make one soon thanks be blessed
Glad to see that you enjoyed this sabiki rig making video. Tight Lines!
GREAT VIDEO, THANK YOU
Hi this setup is working for mackerel ?
Superb this
Thanks for watching!

I fish freshwater, just found they use this subiki rig to catch freshwater bait also. Wanting to try this. It just use the bare hook? Think that may work for freshwater also? Very good video, thanks for sharing.
Thanks keep them coming
Love it I did it at Boynton and coughs little pin and blue runner
Fantastic news! Glad to see that you're catching great bait with your home-made sabiki rig. Tight Lines!
gonna try it out today. thanks!
Ty for the good info but what was the size of the hooks
He says #8
Thanks great hint
I need to catch some skip jack herring to catfish with. Fresh water in current? and what kind of bait would you recommend
Great tip, thanks.
Our pleasure! Glad to see that you enjoyed the sabiki rig making video. Tight Lines!
I have a bunch of small hooks laying around. I think I will just use some of those and make one.
I caught some sow flounder and the were spitting up 4" perch. I can catch some perch for bait. Good video.
I hope you enjoy catching bait on your custom made sabiki rig. Tight Lines!
Good Stuff! Thanks!
Thank you so much
Does this work for herring near fish ladder
I started tying bucktail jigs. I wonder if I tied a couple pieces of hair or some flash if it would catch pilchards. I'm gonna have to test it out and see.
Great idea. That'll prob work too.
Good video thanks
Thanks for making time to leave the nice comment!
What hook size do you recommend for catching sardines?
Where did you get that awesome knife??
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.
Maybe the hook eye holes are too small ...
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.
thanks bro very helpful. now u've give me an idea...i can do the "T knot" as well after tieng the hooks. i can have an equal distance between the hooks and having an equal length of hook line from the main line. thanks.
Great video by the way!
Thanks! Tight Lines!
I wonder if this would work for freshwater
Would you think that this would work off the shore aswell? I live in Australia and really love your videos!!!! Keep up the great tutorials!!!
Use it with a float maybe?
Does the type of weight matter and could you do just a bunch of dropper loops
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
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.
Thank you mate
Cool thanks for another good tip vid
Our pleasure! Glad to see that you enjoyed this sabiki rig making video. Tight Lines!
I tie the hooks the same as you did the weight. you can change both weights and hooks
any gulp baits?
They work!
there are 2 types of white gulp bait. are these baits you use with glow or without glow?
nice old terraza floor, must be Florida.
Roughly what size hooks to catch 12inch porgy on the Long Island Sound?
