This is a handmade live bait rig, specifically a "nomase" (live bait) fishing rig and an elevator rig. The characteristic feature is that the total length of the rig is set to be slightly longer, prioritizing bites and preventing the baitfish from weakening easily. We recommend trying this not only when fish are highly active but especially when they are finicky biters. The reason for adopting the "ear-attached" external knot for the main hook is that it provides reliable strength and the hook tends to point slightly inward, making it easier for the fish to swallow. Also, the distance between the main hook and the assist hook is set to be about 15 cm, which is wider. Please understand that there may be slight errors due to it being handmade. Commercial rigs have a narrower spacing. By making it wider, even large fish can be baited. If the spacing is too narrow, the assist hook can pierce vital areas of the fish, causing it to weaken, and if it's too short, the assist hook loses its purpose. The main hook and assist hook are fixed, not movable, so they do not shift during the strike, reducing the chance of losing the fish. The photos show flatfish being fished with a bottom rig and yellowtail with a float rig. We use Yozuri snap swivels (breaking strength: 12kg) and the Palomar knot for tying the line. The main hook is a Maruseigo size 17, to which a soft luminous bead is attached to prevent baitfish from biting through and to attract them. The assist hook is a saltwater rust-resistant, medium-thick treble hook, size #4. The leader is approximately 1.1m of pink fluorocarbon line, size 8, which is rumored to be invisible to fish (it is a supple fluorocarbon). When baiting with fish such as horse mackerel, mackerel, Japanese sardine, or pond smelt, the main hook can be attached through the nose, mouth, or back, and the assist hook can be attached to the tail or back. For smaller fish like anchovies or small horse mackerel, the assist hook can be used freely depending on the size. Another feature is that even larger horse mackerel, mackerel, or Japanese sardines can be baited. Please note that discounts are not available except for bulk purchases.
