But the rig is tied in the same manor, just with a lighter leader. As I said, I’ve been tying (using a light leader and small hook), fishing and catching with this rig for 20+ years. I’ve also used spearing in place of a killie and had excellent success-especially on certain flats in the bay.

I also use the same basic clam rig (fish finder, swivel, leader, hook) when clamming stripers only difference is I again employ a lighter than most leader of #20. And guess what, I usually get more strikes than those using the same rig with a heavier leader. It’s all about making whatever bait you are using look more natural and unimpeded.
