A hook rig is a ready-made setup with one or more hooks, often attached with leaders to a main line. Hook rigs are used for many types of fishing – from shore, by boat, or in deep water.
Common types of hook rigs:
Hook rig for cod/halibut
Hook rig for pollock/coalfish
Sliding sinker rig
Paternoster rig
Sabiki rig (many small hooks with feathers/glitter, for baitfish)
Hook rigs make fishing easier and more effective, and they come in many variations tailored to different fishing methods and species.
