Would such a rig cast far, or is that not needed ? I believe gilts usually come in pretty close?
Or is there a way to clip it?
What I usually use for my local estuary flounder fishing is a flowing two hook running ledger.
Really basic, just tie an oversized blood loop in a decent length of line, then cut it so you have a stand off snood.
Like this. Excuse the very VERY crude drawing on the phone, but the blue line is the two hook snood made from a single piece of line, the thicker blue blob is meant to be a swivel (lol) and the red loop is the weight running on the mainline/leader.
It will cast okay but I use maddies on it for the flounder and they won’t take power casting, lol, an absolute max of 50 yards is the most I’d ever need in the estuary, usually just a flick tbh.
Don’t laugh at my art, but you get the idea ???
