hi lads.the pic i have below is a rig i bought from the mustad range in a tackle shop.it is called a "baited spoon" and it was in the shore angling rigs section.as u can see on 1 end of the spoon is 1 foot of line with 4 running beads and a size 1 hook .the other end has about 4 foot of line and then a swivel at the end.
to be honest i have no idea how to use this properly or to set it up..cud any 1 give me some info on how to use this properly as it looks like a good rig if fished right for big flats and ray hopefully.even if sum 1 could draw a small sketch and upload ere i would be grateful
any info appreciated on this rig.
Thanx a million
Brian

there is a pic to show you where to put lead i use a zip clip to attach lead and a mack belly you will need some bait elastic to hold the mack on and make sure you leave a bit of a mack flapping off the hook to tease the fish and bring it in very slow with a jerking movement

Re: how to use this from the shore
the bottom half (hooklength) is perfectly set up, the top part is little to long as shaneh said .
set it to about 1 foot long. from the swivel have a bead, then a lead clip for your weight, then another bead and then a swivel to tie to your mainline. like a running ledger. the spoon needs movement to work as it stirs up the bottom and flickers. thats what causes the attraction to the fish. either fish it into a tidal run or twitch in slowly, sort of like ultra slow spinning for flats, stopping every so often.

Re: how to use this from the shore
Or use it where that kind of trace is better suited. IE From a boat....
