ABSTRACT:
The bottom fish rig12has a strong leader13with a removable sliding c-weight25and a horizontal unilateral three-pronged hook41that resists snagging and reduces possible injuries. A horizontal unilateral three-pronged hook41differs from the standard treble hook by having all three barbs oriented upwards in a 180-degree plane and the hook41is designed to lie flat on the surface. An elongated leader13has a hook end14and a line end16. The hook end14has a leader hook loop18and the leader line end16has a leader line loop20. A first movement stop22is crimped to the leader13before the leader line loop20. A second movement stop24is crimped to the leader about two-thirds of the length. A sliding c-weight25connects to the leader13between movement stops.
