@@RogerOsborneFishing not sure I understood: do you keep the rig running on the main line through the swivel of the rig or do you attach it to the sinker? Or are both valid options?
One “upgrade” for this rig is to put a soft glow in the dark bead on the stinger. Run it so that if it goes over the trace and the stinger hook. The flow in the dark aspect is a bonus but it’s mainly to keep the stinger exactly where you want. You can slide it up and down as needed. When using a softer/floppier bait the soft bead stops the stinger moving down which stops the soft bait folding on itself. When a fish hooks up on the stinger it’ll still move down if needed.
Brilliant I’m going to use an adapted nylon only version of this before I get to the store and get the nylon wire supplies. The glow bead idea sounds great. I’m just new to this so thx 😁
@@RogerOsborneFishingI’m just starting and have been watching a lot of content and yours is by far the best and most practical advice I’ve found online. Thank 👍 subbed
Hi Roger this is my first post I have been fishing the beach since I was a young kid I’m now 58 I thought I was pretty knowledgeable on beach fishing but after watching so many of your videos I now realise how little I actually did know thank you very much for passing your great knowledge on it’s greatly appreciated👍
Thanks for the tips! Gonna give this a try - have been using similar 'stiinger' or snapper snell setups for a while, but actually, I've usually used a larger hook as the stinger, and my thinking is that because it's further up the line/trace, there's more chance of a larger fish getting hooked there, instead of the bottom hook, which I can then downsize to a smaller hook for the pickier and smaller specimens. Would this make sense, or do you have a reason for using the smaller hook as the stinger?
I have watched and re-watched your rig video time and time again (even earlier today) and have always thought of this rig to be supreme, mainly because of its simplicity and versatility. I just hopped on to RUclips to look up 'stinger hook' videos and before I typed anything, this video was at the top of my recommended list. The fishing Gods are alive and well it seems!
@@RogerOsborneFishing Been meaning to get back on here to confirm that yes, even a complete amateur like me can up their fishing game immediately with this rig! Caught the biggest bream of my life first time trying it out a few weeks ago (on a beach that I have never caught a fish on before as well). And guess what - brought him in on the stinger! Then, a few casts later, I reeled in my first ever salmon, a big one too. Had some more luck with this rig up the coast about a week ago as well, catching another bream which might have even bigger than the first!
@@jimmybernasconi9000 Hey Jimbo, quick question. I am in a similair situation where I am an amateur. Can I ask what bait you were using and also what beach?
@@christopherwilson248 Hey mate. Literally just went to Coles and got a handful of the fresh prawns from the deli. I used to use the frozen ones you get at the servo but the fresh ones from Coles (either king or banana, uncooked obviously) are much better. I’ve even caught fish using the uncooked unseasoned packaged ones from woolies. Beach-wise, bagged the bream and salmon at Mollymook beach in NSW and then the other big bream up at Kingscliff near Tweed Heads. Since then, I’ve also had some luck off the beach at North Steyne in Sydney when the wind and waves have been moderate. Caught a bream and a dart last session and then hooked a HUGE salmon (could’ve been a shark I tell you) but it broke my line so I went home haha. But yeh mate, from one amateur to another, I’ve found fresh prawns and good conditions to be the biggest factors when it comes to catching decent fish. My cast is weak as and I don’t back myself to read a beach that well - just looking for the spots where the break meets the gut as Roger has taught us. Good luck out their my man!
Fantastic! Rodger its always great to see fellow angles catching fish. Alas Rodger where we cast our lines has become over fished by trawling and factory processing ships being supplied by pair trawlers who trawl massive nets between them. Rodger I will make a couple of these guys and give them a go. From a much saddened angler I thank you and hope that you guys out there really appreciate the beauty of the ocean that you are blessed to fish in. Thanks again buddy. Tight lines every trip.
Hi Roger. Great video and thank you. I use a rod holder and circle hooks on a high-low rig. Can I use this rig with the J-hooks and rod holder. (Like to sit back and watch the rod at night.) Also, like the running sinker but doesn’t work well with braid. Can you advise on this too please. Thanks, Knasan
My father’s favourite rig! He showed me this in the late 80s He uses it in most locations! I can remember multiple awesome catches caught on what he called the bait keeper! I’ve adopted and modified variations of this idea combined with a snood it has some potential use’s offshore too!
Great informative video, I hav'nt got any wire right now, but i'm gonna make this rig using standard fishing line and see how it performs today, I'm a beginner and my biggest catch so far is a 4 inch puffer fish ! 🤣 So things can only get better!
Great video. How do you bait up say a pilchard on this rig please? Is it the same as a standard pennel rig ie do you hook the bait at the top with what you call the stinger? Interestingly here in the UK an angler would identify the stinger as thd bottom hook.
Great to see a simple robust approach still works well. Too many finesse techniques out there just complicating things in my view. This example keeps it simple and increases the chance of success for a variety of species. Great advice, nice approach, look forward to the next one 👌.
Just stumbled upon this video. As a angler myself based in the UK it's always nice to see what other parts of the world do. Over here we call this a "pennel rig." Personally I use them a lot for my fishing. Look up "Pulley Pennel dropper" or a "Up and over rig" although the line crimps/Metal sleves you use arn't really a thing here we tend to use lower profile knots on our pennels and most rigs to allow bigger baits to slide over the knots easier to make better use of the "stinger." Tight lines
Hi Andrew, thanks for saying Hello. Sorry for the slow reply. I looked up the Pennel Rig as you suggested. It seems that the sinker is fixed similar to what we call a Paternoster Rig. With the deadliest rig I have a running sinker on the main line with a shorter leader of about 40cm (15 inches). I trust that the Pulley Pennel rig works well. Thanks for the info.
Thanks Roger been following you for a bit now and enjoying a better hit rate. So yes very much for your easy to follow video contents always great stuff. Even works over here in NZ !! This body is getting a bit long in the tooth but still find a couple of days a week on the beach. Thanks very much.
Thanks for this Roger. You're such a nice dude! Nice to hear your simplistic approach as it is often to easy to get caught out and make things too complicated. 👍
Love the videos! You’ve taught me so much from your channel, and especially the stinger hook I’ve caught so many more fish because of this. Cheers Rodger you’re a legend! 👍
Absolute novice here - can you please post a photo of your rig with the sinker and leader attached to your main line so I’m confident I have it right. Loving your videos! Our new found love for beach fishing is making some amazing family memories!
Thanks Donna, that's awesome for your family. Have the leader at 30cm long. It is as simple as putting the sinker on your main line and then tying on the deadliest rig that you have made
When fishing for Taylor of Catherine Hill bay rocks we used the gang hook rig with gar fish but a lot of times we go ripped to pieces by bream. What we did was put a small leader off the end of the last hook with a 1/0 suicide hook using wire trace. It was only about 5cm long but it definately booster our catch rate.
@@RogerOsborneFishing Hi Roger, do you use any pyramid weights on anything on this rig? I can see them in the video where you catch but not in the process.
Hi Rodger thanks for the content you put up regularly. I have a question about line and what types do you use for what purposes, do you prefer nylon or braid. Regards David

Mate I'm nearly 60 and I've done this same rig since I can remember, but in nylon not wire. I reckon I've used it since a 10 year old. It's great to see you also think it's a winner
Hi Roger, great video. How do you bait a pilchard on this rig with the wire trace. Your video BEST BAITS for Beach Fishing shows how to attach a half pilchard using mono. How would you attach pilchard to hooks (main and stinger) and with wire trace doing a half hitch?? I think there is allot of us wondering...
Hi Shane, you bait it the same as with mono but you can't do the half hitch. That's OK it works just fine. If you use a fillet bait it works really well but I still use half pilchards
Hi Roger Do you use this rig when using beach worms? Do you feed worms onto the hook like u do with long shank hooks and then hook the stinger or do u keep stinger free?
Hi Lee, yes I have used worms on this rig, they were one of the baits I used in the filming of this video. I thread them on both hooks, it's a double whammy 😃
Thank you Roger, can't wait to try out this rig Just a quick question, do I bait up the main hook and the stinger hook? By the way I'm from South Africa and really enjoyed your videos
In UK we put a piece of silicon tubing on stinger hook. Then thread the line or wire trace through the hook and tubing. This way you can fix the hook further up the trace. UK called a pennel rig
Hi mate. I’ve got a quick question regarding this hook setup. Could you see any reason why this hook setup wouldn’t work on a standard paternoster rig setup? Instead of a single hook dropper you could run this double hook setup?
I’m amazed that the squashing of the small tubing is strong enough to withstand the force of the fish. Have you ever experienced a fish pulling the wire back through the tube and hence having the rig fall apart? Looks like the squashing of the wire trace in the tube is stronger than a really good fishing knot?
Hi Roger, surely you are a super busy bloke and might not get a chance to read this... If you do, what are your thoughtly on circle hooks? From all your videos I have seen so far, you seem to use regular hooks. And never circles. Any reason as to why? Circles more trouble and less hookups?
Hi Roger, great video and learn a lot form your videos. And thank you for that. Wanted to ask what lb of leader and choice of line ( mono or braid & lb) to use for this set up? Thank you very much
Hi Roger have learnt heaps from your videos. Have a ? regarding the size mono you are using & are you mainly using a running sinker on the mono? Cheers Pete 🎣
Hi Peter, it is best to use 20lb mono and yes I use a running sinker on the main line. The rig is simple. Put the sinker on your main line then tie on the rig 😃
first of all, great rig!, i havent been surf fishing yet but recently got a surf rod and will be sure to give this a crack. second off all, i think its great that this is nearly a knotless rig, as i have found tying knots with thicker lines to be a bit tricky sometimes. lastly, what size and stlyle sinker, probaly something in the rangers of 5oz i would assume?, and you would you tie a breakaway dropper to attach the sinker or just leave it running on the mainline (maybe do a vid to explain how?)
New watcher, loving your insights. Great work. Never really bothered with beach worms down here in south-west Vic. Always done my best to gather sand fleas for gars. Squidding, and fishing for salmon or mullet. Covers all and every species from SA through NSW. Now I am going to seek these mighty worms at many of the calmer surf zones. The tips on the lowest of low tides was very good. Often the diurnal tides around November can produce -60cm down here. How the hell do you pull those things out without snapping them?
Nice one Rog. For beginner fishos like me and my mate this is certainly going to help, thank you 🙏 I'm guessing an anchor sinker will be tied to a seperate nylon wire about 40cm length on the swivel connecting to the main line? Thank you again.
Hey rogger nice rig I use the same but I use 15 kg line for whiting and my mate use to use 8 lb line and I use to catch more using beach worms he used the same worms and same spot and long shanks it shows that it is the best and when I watched this I Was thinking he better say this rig and you did haha i even traveled 2 hrs to bilgowa to catch worms like in your vidio good spot for a fish to would love to go beach fishing with you someday 👍
hi roger this is the best channel ive learned heaps from you!! could you show us your rig complete with sinker and bait presentation? can i use a slider and bomb sinker? also using strips of fillets or whole whiting?
It would be great to see a photo of the final rig with the sinker, main line etc. Great video!

first of all, great rig!, i havent been surf fishing yet but recently got a surf rod and will be sure to give this a crack. second off all, i think its great that this is nearly a knotless rig, as i have found tying knots with thicker lines to be a bit tricky sometimes. lastly, what size and stlyle sinker, probaly something in the rangers of 5oz i would assume?, and you would you tie a breakaway dropper to attach the sinker or just leave it running on the mainline (maybe do a vid to explain how?)
Hi Owen, have the sinker running on the main line. Depending on your line breaking strain I use either a 55gm or 110gm star sinker.
Hi Roger , I too would like to to get the nylon coated wire and 2 hole crimp sleeves from ? Im in Newcastle. Cheers
Good video mate. Do you have the sinker as a running rig or on a seperate dropper attached to the swivel. Cheers
Hi Ken, you could do it either way. I do both but mainly use a running rig.
@@RogerOsborneFishing thanks mate 💪🏼
You've thought me so much , easy simple and effective I reckon
But what about the sinker?
Do you put bait on both hooks or just the main hook??
Awesome mate will give it a crack
Man I love your content and have learnt so much thank you
I appreciate that!
I like your rig....will try it out...here in Uvongo, South Africa.
Thanks Terence, I'm sure you will do well
I’m excited to try this now. Thanks so much for a great video.
You are so welcome!
Is this just for the surf or can it be used out of a boat or off the rocks as well?
Wazza, I use it off the rocks and sometimes in the lake. You could use it from a boat.
New watcher, loving your insights. Great work. Never really bothered with beach worms down here in south-west Vic. Always done my best to gather sand fleas for gars. Squidding, and fishing for salmon or mullet. Covers all and every species from SA through NSW.
Now I am going to seek these mighty worms at many of the calmer surf zones. The tips on the lowest of low tides was very good. Often the diurnal tides around November can produce -60cm down here. How the hell do you pull those things out without snapping them?
Hi Tom, what things are you referring to?
That looks awesome Roger, could you use this in a estuary for flatties or just stick to the beach.
Nick, I have used it in the estuary with good success.
Thanks for sharing mate! Very good and interesting vid.
Thanks Juan. Glad you enjoyed it
Awesome rig Roger just checked it out, will give it a crack, thanks
You're most welcome.
Nice one Rog. For beginner fishos like me and my mate this is certainly going to help, thank you 🙏
I'm guessing an anchor sinker will be tied to a seperate nylon wire about 40cm length on the swivel connecting to the main line?
Thank you again.
Usually a running sinker on the main line then just tie to the swivel.
See 1.58, looks like sinker is not on main line
What sinker are you using off the surf with this rig.
I'm using a star sinker either 55gm or 110gm depending on the line breaking strain.
Thanx Roger, Great info and lesson. looking forward to a fantastic season. Cheers.
Thanks, You and me both!
9.50pm can you give details of the wire trace. I can't find it in NZ
The brand is ICON
Hey rogger nice rig I use the same but I use 15 kg line for whiting and my mate use to use 8 lb line and I use to catch more using beach worms he used the same worms and same spot and long shanks it shows that it is the best and when I watched this I Was thinking he better say this rig and you did haha i even traveled 2 hrs to bilgowa to catch worms like in your vidio good spot for a fish to would love to go beach fishing with you someday 👍
hi roger this is the best channel ive learned heaps from you!! could you show us your rig complete with sinker and bait presentation? can i use a slider and bomb sinker? also using strips of fillets or whole whiting?
Thanks Talent Searcher, Strip baits/ fillets are best or half a Pilchard. Yes you can use a slider and a bomb sinker
Hi Roger, I thought bream are kinda sensitive to leader that are more than 6lb but you've just given me an option, hope it work, cheers mate.
Hi Tailslap, Yes I have caught a number of Bream on the wire trace off the beach. You can still catch Bream and not be bitten of by Tailor.
