Two Hook Pichard Fishing Rig

The Two Hook Pilchard Rig is the complete answer to keeping soft bait fish on the hook.

Many fishermen around the world have realized the benefits of using whole fish for bait.


Unfortunately, a lot of the best small fish species like pilchards, which are most attractive to other fish, are very soft and very difficult to keep on your hooks.

This rig also works very well with a piece of bait on each hook, often you will catch two fish!

The two hook pilchard rigs shown above allows the fishermen to insert one hook through the hard skull of the bait fish while the second hook secures the tail of the fish by being hooked around the backbone of the bait fish.
