I r".M f ajmjiltt-lmThe collection of line or leader, weights and connectors which join the hook to the fishing line is called ter minal tackle. Today, we'll concentrate . on terminal tackle for bottom fishing. For the more important reason, try This could be reservoir fishing for this experiment.

Now tie foot leader and finally the hook. on Isn't this the same as the dumb rig above? Nope, because with this rig, the fish can nibble the bait and the force of the tug passes through the weight unimpeded. You can even let the fish swim off a bit to mouth the bait. And it won't suspect anything because it never feels the weight at all. Tie one up, lay it on the floor and try 1-- The Utah Division of Wildlife Resources fisheries biologists have treated Hyrum Reservoir and the lower portion of the Little Bear River to prevent contagious fish viruses from entering Utah waters. This treatment project was in response to the fish virus, Infectious Hematopoietic Necrosis, a bacteria that destroys fish cells. This project also served as a pilot project in treating Strawberry Reservoir in 1989. IHN was introduced to Cache Valley, Utah, when a local trout farm purchased fish with the virus from a private trout hatchery in Idaho. The virus affects hatchery fish more than fish in natural settings because fish are more concentrated, more stressed and prone to diseases. IHN has no known effect on humans. The chemical used to eradicate fish and the virus poses no threat to humans, livestock or pets. 3 For this rig, egg sinkers are best where there'll be no current. Or you can use a bell sinker with a small brass eye, running the line through the eye. If the sinker tends to jam on the swivel or ring below when you cast, try putting a small glass bead on the line between the sinker and swivel. I like and use this rig almost exclusively for bottom fishing situations. : Either way, it's the choice of terminal rig that often spells success.
