Shakespeare SALT Rig Flapper Rig 1 Up 1 Down

Shakespeare SALT Rig Flapper Rig 1 Up 1 Down — versatile rig for European shore and boat angling

The Shakespeare SALT Rig Flapper Rig 1 Up 1 Down delivers a proven two-hook configuration that keeps one bait off the bottom and one riding just above, ideal for targeting flatfish, cod, and bass in mixed-ground conditions.

Two-level presentation for multiple species

The 1 up/1 down design positions one hook size 2 above the lead and one just off the seabed, letting you present two baits at different depths. This staggered setup is perfect when fish are feeding at varying levels or when you want to test bait types simultaneously—lugworm on the bottom hook, ragworm or squid strip on the upper.

Built for reliability in saltwater

Developed in cooperation with experienced European sea anglers, every component—from hooks to swivels—has been selected for durability and knot strength. The flapper rig construction allows each snood to move independently, reducing tangles on the cast and giving fish a natural bait presentation in tidal flow.
