Hi Dougie,

Many thanks for the pic.

Is you setup just one rig or two as I was looking at your line following the path?

Also are there any specials knots your prefer when fishing for the kings or knots tying your swivel?

Hi Dougie,

I was confused in the pic I saw three hooks and trying to learn of teh masters what kind of setup you have. :tongue:

Many thanks for a great insight to your setup and sharing your knowledge.

So Dougie in the pic is the hook near the pliers in the photo by mistake?
