Yes. The 150cm paternoster works from jetties, piers, and breakwaters where herring congregate. Lower it gently or cast it on 0.30mm+ mainline. Wind it back steadily to trigger bites.
The rig is pre-tied and ready to use. Simply tie the top loop to your mainline using a surgeon's knot or uni-knot. No additional setup needed.
Small silvers (sandeel, sprat, capelin) are ideal. Fresh herring filet works too. The rig's fish-skin flaps and beads are visual attractants — bait is secondary but effective.
Five is the sweet spot: enough spacing for independent bites without tangles, and enough coverage to maximize hookups in fast-moving schools. Ideal balance for herring.
Spring (March–May) and autumn (August–October) see peak herring runs in northern Europe. Cold water (below 10°C) concentrates them into tight schools. Check local reports — seasons vary by region.

The Balzer Edition Sea Heringssystem is a purpose-designed pre-rigged paternoster rig for targeting herring in cold saltwater. Pre-tied with five size-6 hooks and decorated with fish-skin flaps and pearl beads as proven attractants, this rig cuts down on setup time and lets you focus on the bite.
Herring fishing requires a multi-hook approach to maximize contact with fast-moving schools. The paternoster layout spaces five hooks along 150cm of line, creating a natural presentation that herring find hard to resist. The 0.30mm main line is rigid enough to hold shape during the cast yet sensitive enough to signal bites through light rod feedback.
Rig length: 150cm (roughly 60 inches)
Main line: 0.30mm diameter monofilament
Branch lines (mouth): 0.25mm diameter
Hook count: 5, size 6 (standard European sizing)
Attractants: Fish-skin patches and pearl beads on each hook
Material: Monofilament with small metal beads
This rig excels in spring and autumn when herring school in shallow bays and near breakwaters. Cold water (below 10°C) concentrates herring in tight schools, making the multi-hook approach exceptionally effective. Drop it from boat or shore and work it gently — herring usually hook themselves on the way out of the rig.
