Does anybody know the cheapest and best way of amassing the amount of rigs needed to fish the gullies of our fine Northumbrian shore line.I tend to lose up to 15 rigs a visit.I make my own most of the time but was hoping to find out if someone has set up to meet the needs of the average cod fanatic?All help would be much appreciated.
Cheers

just buy sum rock and bottoms form ur tackle shop put sum 15lb line on to it and then to ur sinker jobss a good one, lose ur sinker insted ov the lot happy days lol
 
If you are losing that many a session surely the more financially viable option would be to make your own with a 3 way swivel paternoster stylee and weaker mono as a rotten bottom?

if you are minted however knock yourself out and buy online ;)
 
losing 15 shop bought rigs per session. sounds a tad expensive.obviously rough ground.why not try 30lb test main line .must be just a gentle lob casting.roten bottom clip with 10lb test and a simple loop further up the line .20 lb hook length.
 
Thanks a.g I must admit its a bit nuts but I fish three sometimes four rods,its almost an over the top military style approach but I only get back at xmas so to me going bananas for two sessions and blowing 40 quid a session or so is just my way of dealing with my longing for the cod.Of course im sure one rod fished properly would be far more effective but if your not on the ground locally and able to pop out during north easterlies it can lead to over the top tactics!
 
If your fishing in a tackle nighmare it may be better just to fish with two rods, bigger baits and leaving them for a longer soak.
