How do you set up a rig to spin for trout?
Hi, I'm looking to get back into freshwater fishing. I used to rig my spinners in a stupid way, with my spinner attached to my main line and then a weight tied to a bit of line about 2-3ft would be tied onto the spinner to dangle down. I'm guessing as I never caught anything this was stupid but could anyone tell me how to rig a spinner properly? Thanks.
Many ways. I'll usually tie a Palomar knot to a "Sampo", stainless ball-bearing snap swivel. With the snap swivel it's easier for one ta' change spinners. If you have ta' use a weight say a split shot put it right at the end of your line at the top of the eye of the spinner. Only thing that accomplishes is a longer cast and or spinner ta' go a little deeper, of course that depends on how fast the retrieve is. Try this link, shows ya' how to tie a Palomar and other knots...
