 Rigs - The Wishbone

 

 


The Wishbone Rig is not a rig that will win the "Most Frequently Used" prize, however it is one that is worth a try if all else has failed and you want to try something different.

The biggest advantage is you can experiment with your bait, try both hooks baited the same or a different bait on each hook.

Normally you would expect to hook the fish on either one or the other hook, however last year when fishing of Norfolk, I hooked into a cod. On landing I found it had both hooks in its month, With  Mackerel on one hook and the lug on the other I can only presume he fancied a cocktail !
