Saltwater Pro Series Wishbone Rig

Overview

The Dennett Saltwater Pro Series Wishbone Rig is a pre-tied two-hook sea fishing rig from the Dennett Saltwater Pro / Pro Series range, designed to present two baits around the lower section of the rig. This Size 1/0 version is built with a strong 60lb main rig body and 20lb fluorocarbon hook lengths, giving anglers a ready-made setup straight out of the packet.

The Wishbone configuration branches both hook snoods from the lower part of the rig rather than spacing baits up the trace. This keeps both bait presentations concentrated close to the seabed, in the same general feeding zone, rather than spread through the water column.

Supplied professionally pre-tied and ready to use, it's a straightforward option for anglers wanting a two-hook bottom rig without having to tie their own.

Perfect For

This Wishbone Rig is particularly useful for UK shore fishing scenarios where you want two baits fishing close to the bottom, two different bait choices presented in roughly the same feeding area, and two hook points without spreading your presentation up through the water column.

It's best suited to clean or relatively clean seabed venues, and is particularly relevant to flatfish and other bottom-feeding species — though this is general practical guidance on how a Wishbone rig fishes, rather than a Dennett-specific species claim. The Size 1/0 hooks make it suitable for somewhat more substantial bait presentations than the smaller-hook flatfish-style Wishbone rigs.

Technical Insight

The wishbone-style branching of the two hook snoods from the lower part of the rig is the key design feature here: instead of stacking one bait above the other, both baits sit low and close together near the seabed, concentrating your scent trail and bait presentation where bottom-feeders are most likely to find it.

The 60lb main rig body gives the setup the strength needed for casting and retrieving from the shore, while the 20lb fluorocarbon hook lengths provide the hook snoods. Being supplied pre-tied removes the need to construct the rig trackside, so it's ready to clip on and fish straight away.
