[daniboy64]

can anyone tell me what is rockbottom rigs

[codseeker]

does ya mean rottenbottom rigs

[daniboy64]

yes thats them lol

[rocketman]

panel pins

[rocketman]

its a rig with a weak link between the lead and you trace so if you get lead snagged it snaps before your rig body therefore not loosing all your trace just the lead

[daniboy64]

areright is there anywhere i can get diagrams from to make them

[chrome21]

as above but use one of the many types of links/clips if casting
lead clips onto the link etc for casting an releas when hitting the water
then lead will only be attached by the thin line for retrieve, but if the lead does get snagged then it will break at the weakline and you keep the trace and hopefully the fish

[daniboy64]

so are these easy to make

[chrome21]

just the same as making normal rigs....
just use one of your choosen clips for the rotton bottom on the end and a length of thin line too tie the weight on
i use the gemini breakers ( mind i got a load given) or there is others ( sure someone on here makes them but cant think who it is)

[daniboy64]

ok thats great thank u all for advice

[NICKY]

use the search function on the site mate loads of info there

[david.northeast]

Jimmy makes them
Instead of tying your lead link the right way turn it round and tie to the loop weak line tirs to your normal loop and lead and it then sits on your link like normal

daniboy64, here is a diagram for you to use as a basis to make your own rough ground (rottem bottom) rig. Hope this helps you

I DO NOT OWN THIS IMAGE, THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A DIAGRAM SOMEONE HAS DRAWN WHO 'DOESNT' USE HOOKS!
