Re: Killer Tangle Free Cod Rig
It seems Cod, in general like pink or red teasers.
Like MVP said, it seems like certain colors work better in different areas at different times. I always liked the pink grubs and pink skirts for the Cod but have seen them caught on white green , purple and of course no teaser at all. Be prepared.. The Tsunami squids work well too. I never used Gulp for Cod yet. Whatever you do....DO NOT USE ORANGE. Leif

Funny I never thought of putting grubs on salt water stuff. And I can't think of a good reason (except for bluefish) not to dress with one. Great tip, cod fish or not. THANKS! Capt. Frank |

Re: Killer Tangle Free Cod Rig
Type of teasers used will depend on what they are feeding on.
If fish feeding on sand eels Fly type teasers, tubes and grub type mimick sand eel. Squid type teasers if feeding on squid. Plastics shad type of grub type for shad. As you always hear try to match the hatch. Also the fluttering effect of different type of teasers will entice fish to strike. MVP |

I would like to know what grubs & squids you guys are using. I always wanted to try Gulp on that type set-up, both gulp squid & gulp twist-tail grubs. What did you mean by "pitbulls"... dogfish? Thanks. JD Last edited by jjdbike; 01-17-2009 at 12:21 PM.. |

Re: Killer Tangle Free Cod Rig
OK here's a question.
I've used this set up w/ siwash open-eye piched on to a swivel. Not the perfect hook design for the application. What might be great would be an open eye or ringed (non-forged) bait holder. The longer, but not too shank would be good for both grubs & squid. The baitholder slices will help hold grub on. Open eye or non-forged ringed so a swivel can be pinched on. What do you think.... any suggestions? JD |

The siwash open eye hooks are easy to work with but for this application I feel the hook is too heavy, too wide of a gap and too short of a shank. I like the idea you had of the bait holder(non-forged) with an open eye or ringed eye. I haven't seen these available though. I have tried heating the eye of these forged hooks with a torch. It works but it is a lot of work and sometimes the eye still breaks and is probably weaker if it doesn't. Trying different things and improving on ideas is always good. Thanks for the comments, ideas and interest. I am always open to learn and consider all options when it comes to fishing. Leif
