Balzer Flatfish Perchman Rig — Flatfish specialist terminal tackle

Proven rig adapted for flatfish fishing. A sliding mechanism lets you adjust hook depth. Bait the upper hook with a whole ragworm and the lower with a worm segment. This dual presentation works by keeping one worm close to bottom and one dragging across it, creating maximum appeal to flatfish.

Fishing methods

Anchored fishing: cast and retrieve slowly with pauses. Drifting or charter boat: drag the rig across the bottom.

Key features

Two size #1 hooks with sliding adjustment mechanism
Line diameter 0.80mm and 0.40mm
Sold as single rig per packet

Frequently asked

What weight should I choose for my fishing situation?

Lighter weights (28–40g) suit shallow water or slow drift. Medium (60g) works for moderate conditions. Heavier weights (80–100g) handle deep water or strong tides and fast drift speeds.

How does the sliding mechanism work?

The slider lets you adjust the height of the upper hook above the seabed. Experiment to find the depth where flatfish are feeding that day—sometimes they prefer baits near bottom, other times higher in the water column.

What bait should I use with this rig?

Use fresh or live ragworms or lugworms. Bait the upper hook with a whole worm for visibility. Bait the lower with a worm segment to create a scent trail across the bottom.

Can I use this rig from an anchored boat?

Yes. Cast out and retrieve slowly with regular pauses. The adjustable hooks work well with this technique, allowing flatfish time to respond to the bait presentation.

Is this rig suited for drifting?

Ideal for drifting. Simply drag the rig across the seabed. The sliding mechanism keeps both hooks working effectively as you move with wind and tide.

Does the 28g weight cast differently than the heavier versions?

The 28g version is lighter and suits close-range fishing with shorter casts. It works well for spinning-style retrieval with pauses. Heavier versions (40–100g) cast farther and are better for drift or distance fishing.
