I began tying these because it was costing me more in rigs than boat fuel and the fish I was catching were becoming a little too expensive. I love mackerel and here in the uk it is a summer visitor, making my own rigs, catching and eating my own fish feels a little like being part of something older. One of my dreams is to build a small man powered boat maybe an outrigger canoe and catch mackerel from it, maybe it will happen this year. <br /><br />Thanks and I hope the summer season goes well, let me know if you get a chance.<br /><br />Paul Adams<br />Paul Adamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10747973779452798014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3697486048864810952.post-18442693537452696542013-01-29T05:03:06.284-08:002013-01-29T05:03:06.284-08:00Paul,

I use many rigs in the summer catching mackerel to eat and to use as bait for the Mighty Maine Striped Bass. I priced the rigs in a couple of tackle shops here and I am saving around $3.75 per rig I make. <br /><br /><br />Thanks again!<br /><br />Adam<br /><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13613373359138003090noreply@blogger.com
