Description

Description Details Tips We designed the Smile Blade Herring Rig to make it extremely easy to fish hole or cut plug herring. Featuring two sharp hook sizes, a Smile Blade 1.9 and a Stop Knot, this lure is deadly for salmon. Why does the top hook slide on the Herring Rig? The top hook slides so that you can use any size of herring and straighten it out by sliding the top hook to fit the proper length. Can you use shrimp or other baits with the Herring Rig? Yes, you can. You can fish virtually anything you want on this setup.
