A step by step guide to building a cod jumper rig.
1. Begin with 20-inches of 60lb Fluoro Carbon or clear mono line.
2. To one end tie on a size 4 rolling swivel.
3. Choose a hollow plastic type boom about 8-10-inches long. Pass the free end of the 60lb line down through the boom.
4. Below the boom, slide on a 5mm bead and tie on a strong size 4 rolling swivel.
5. To the swivel tie on 3 to 4-feet of 40/50lb clear Fluoro Carbon or mono. Fluorocarbon is stiffer than mono and works the shad better, plus has more abrasion resistance.
6. Tie on a strong snap swivel link, preferably a silver/chrome coloured one for added attraction
7. The weighted shad or lead head simply attaches to the link.
