You have seen in
the magazines that "Jim Smith caught a 6 lb Bass using squid on a
Pennel.." and then wondered what a Pennel was, well it is a
standard rig, but with two hooks mounted on the snood. One of these
hooks can be simply slid up and down the snood, to hold larger baits,
such as Squid or big Lug. This greatly improves bait presentation. To
create the Pennel, create the rig as normal but before you tie the hook
on the hook snood slide a small piece of rubber sleving up the line,
pass the line through the loop of a hook (It is suggested that this
should ideally be two sizes smaller than the main hook), the slide the
tube down over the shaft of the hook. Then tie your main hook as normal.
