Florida Bait Rigging



Bait rigging can be done in a variety of ways depending on the type of bait you are using, where you plan on fishing (inshore, offshore, bottom fishing, fishing structure and so on) and the presentation of your bait you are trying to achieve.

If your bait is not rigged correctly for the type of fishing you are doing, most likely you are not going to catch many fish.

So make sure you bait is set up the right way for the style fishing you are doing.

Below is a list of baits and how they can be rigged different ways.
