Hi guys,
Saw this video recently on youtube and wondering what the dude is holding in his hand in 1:35? It seem to be some kind of wire rig?
Anyone knows what it is and how to tie it?

Thanks!
Looks like a type of wire spreader to me.
definitely a spreader of some kind but I wouldn't have a clue how to make one, or what for.
We need some wire guys to weigh in on this one.
i can understand about every 20th word that the guy says. i've got no clue. :-\

It looks like a wire contraption to hold the hooks and bait off the bottom. It is explained in the subtitles. ::) Dominick
Looks like a rocker rig to me . ::)
It's showing how it's used and how to rig it at 1;10 simply a drop sinker and double hook rigged to in the diagram.

I'm thinking the same Dominick.

I don't know but the last fish he caught is sure delicious, especially shyabu shyabu style instead of beef.
Larger versions are sometimes used in deep water fishing where the purpose is to keep the leader from being tangled with the main line on the drop when you are not using dropper loop (chicken) type rigs where the sinker is positioned on the bottom.
He seems to call it "tembin"??
He instructed his congregation to tie it on with a five wrap unimproved clinch knot. How embarrassing for him.

It is a wire rig that puts the hook(sometimes up to 4) slightly above a smooth/sand bottom when fishing for kisu. You slowly drag the rig in and hope for a bite. Kisu is delicious fried crisp and the entire fish is eaten. I used it when I visited Kamogawa, a Pacific coast city southeast of Tokyo. In contrast to Mr. Takahashi, dedicated kisu fisherman sometimes spend tens of thousands of yen/hundreds of dollars for their outfits.

Thank you for the detailed translation. I have a better understanding now. A highly specialized technique for sure.

I think he said,,,,qing rang yi xia ,,,dui bu qi,,, ;) about the knot,,,but he is catching fish and trying to help people,,,, ;D
That's what I thought also Bennie. :D Dominick
This shimano tv has lots of interesting videos, someone need to translate it to English. Missing out on a lot of interesting stuff compared to our Japanese counterparts.

It's a different kind of spreader bar.
It looks like an "Ebing rig" that is being used in a different way. Rather than the 2 hook attachment at the end, an Ebing rig normally has a short leader with a shrimp type lure. The weight in the middle is often a heavy jig without the hook. When jigged in open water (not bottom fishing) the jig or weight in the center causes the shrimp lure to dart around erratically.

Not the same type of rig, but this shore fishing video (jigging for yellow tail) popped up shortly after the one above. Nice shore fishing if you can get it

Unfortunately didn't understand a word, but a lot of species are quite curious in nature, and the use of beads and the like to act as attractants is not unknown. In Europe, Plaice and Flounders are particularly targeted with beads and the like above the baited hooks, even buoyant beads.
So, the wire frame is being used to just elevate the hook section of the trace above the bottom, probably more effective on a slow retrieve that static fished, as seen later in the clip.
