today we're talking about steelhead
0:06
float fishing rigs and setups I'm going
0:10
to show you two of my favorite leader
0:13
setups below the float most importantly
0:16
though your float and the rating on the
0:21
float needs to be matched to your weight
0:24
system so in this case we have a half
0:26
ounce bill Mack float and over here we
0:30
have a 3/8 ounce weight connected to an
0:35
8 ounce nightmare pattern jig white head
0:38
and red body black tail this is probably
0:41
one of my favorite go twos tipped with a
0:42
little bit of prawn that you can get raw
0:45
prawn at any grocery store cut off those
0:49
little bits of it put it on the hook
0:51
here always make sure that the there's
0:54
some shell part connected on the prawn
0:57
or your it will not stick very well
1:00
another great option is to go with these
1:05
being our soft beats made by being are
1:08
tackling game on their website there's a
1:11
great little set up here with the T stop
1:14
that keeps your beef from sliding over
1:17
and then 1/8 ounce split shot about 12
1:22
inches above that both of these leader
1:24
setups have helped me connect with
1:27
steelhead in fact the video right after
1:29
this will show you that I'm one outing
1:33
we hooked steel had a piece on each of
1:36
these leaders they're quite effective
1:39
for getting into fish
