2 Hook Flapper

A straightforward setup with two snoods branching from the main trace, this rig shines both up close and at long range. Twin hooks let you work two depths at once: keep one bait just off the seabed while the other hugs the bottom, or drop both to the floor by fishing a slack line. Running two baits also means you can mix offerings when you’re chasing a range of species. Choose the classic flapper for general work, or opt for the distance-friendly clipped version, which incorporates a spring below the upper snood to prevent trace stretch and keep everything locked tight for streamlined casts.

Compatible with a wide range of baits – including worm, squid, and fish – this rig gives you the flexibility to experiment. A useful tip: try using different baits on each hook to see if the fish show a preference on the day.
