You are one of the first people I’ve seen attacking sea hooks this way , carp anglers have been onto this for years now . Circle and Chinu hooks are way more affective if tied like you are doing. I fish size 4 circles for sea bream and use a multi rig style and I’m more than happy with my hook up rate
It definitely is mate, pretty much a saltwater version of the carp anglers hair rig. Granted the hook won’t have the same articulation as it would with a surgeons loop, but I’m sure the fish won’t mind that if they like the bait 🤷♂️
Thanks a lot mate really appreciate that 🙏👍 I think Gary gets them from any fresh water tackle shop. Somewhere like Frasers I’m Gateshead will have them I think, hope that helps👍
Hi Dave I have tied a dongle like same as this one 70Ib straight through using the knot less knot. I have ordered some of the trident tackle components, I had found a lost rig on my last beach session which had a roto bait clip after tying the dongle the loop didn't eject once the paddle is pushed up not like using a hook. Do you prefer using the imp for the dongle rig I have got some Gemini lead clip that works just as a normal pulley 👍
@@fullcircleangling cheers Dave il have to buy some imps for the dongle rigs and use the trident tackle for the normal pulley rigs. Going to watch your latest trip with sloppy limpets later on always a good watch good luck and tight lines thanks again for the advice 👍🎣🎣🎣
Hi Dave I am going to watch your video on how to make the dongle rig which sounds easy to make. Could you substitute the neoprene rig tubing for something like the core off a cable if you take the wire out or maybe the inside of a pen or would the tube be to rigid just an idea. But I will watch how you make yours thanks for all your videos m8 keep up the good work a d hope yourself and Gary have many tight lines 👍🎣🎣🎣
@@fullcircleangling cheers m8 I will do, as I'm on a budget and get fishing when I can I got a brand new Ron Thompson axellarator off eBay for £60 with £15 postage a right bargain.
I did this for fishing in Ireland last year and worked fine. Made pulley as usual with 80lb body and 70lb snood. Used the knotless knot and length of cable sleeve to give a bit stiffness to bait onto. Put an oval on the end to hook into the impact shield. Huss were all hooked in the lips instead of deep hooking on bottom hook, just pulls out. Very good video 👍
Hi Dave. Thanks very much for subscribing and commenting, much appreciated 🙏 I’ve never tried it but I think you’d be ok doing that mate, let me know how it goes, tight lines 👍
The perfection loop allows the circle hook to rotate freely and set itself. Having the hook eye fixed with a tight knot doesn't allow as much action.... It'll still work, and I dont suppose the cod will be bothered 😅👍🏻
Yeah appreciate that mate, it was always a lazy mans version of the real thing. Although it’s interesting that in South Africa where I believe the original Dingle Dangle was made, they whip the hook rather than using a perfection loop. I wonder if that was purely a strength issue due to the size of fish they were catching 🤷♂️
I've always used amnesia on my pulley rigs. You say you are using 70lb mono straight through. Do you look for any specific properties ie larger diameter mono to increase the abrasiveness or is it really a case of any 70lb mono will do? Cheers and well done on a really unique video 👍
Thanks very much Larry. I generally look for a good quality reliable brand first and foremost, Asso seems to be my choice presently. It doesn’t necessarily have to be 70lb, you could go a lot heavier if you wanted, as long as your crimps had sufficient diameter to take the mono. I’d would say that I’d use 70lb as a minimum. Hope that helps and thanks for the comment 👍
Actually the " dingle dangle" rig was designed by Leviathan Angling club in South Africa for casting big baits long distance, its been used for 8 years now to target any thing from 80kg rays and sharks to edible fish... ps, give credit where its due
Wow! Did not know that! Thanks for sharing. If I ever use it I’ll be sure to correct myself and give it its credit! Thanks for commenting and tight lines!

Nice vid Bud. For Blacks, prewhip them on a baiting needle, cut to length and whip to the dongle and nick with the hook. Works for me.
Spot on Rick I’ll give it a crack 👍
Appreciate the video mate, I’ll definitely be using these when I target some hounds this month
Excellent let us know how you get on👍
@@fullcircleangling Rigs made, just need to find some Huss. Hopefully Blackpool delivers.. 🙏
@@matthewsprawling5168 tight lines🤞👍
hello, wondering if the loop would be easier if you use a crimp. thread line through and back then crimp.
Hi Andrew, it may well be, trial and error I suppose. Give it a crack and let me know how you get on👍
To be honest I’ve never seen it made via monofilament but seems to be a much easier rig to make cheers David

Hi mate. Love your vids on here. Where abouts did you get that bait needle from? You fish all the local areas to me as I’m from Northumberland 💪

Hi Michael, good stuff. yeah I’d say the imp is the better option for the dongle👍

Could I attach the loop to a splashdown clip? Would that work instead of an imp? Great vid by the way. Just subscribed

Great video mate..would it be better using a crimp on the loop to slide the bait on easier??
Cheers 🍻
I guess you could do that Mark yes, good ideal👍
