Balzer Plattfisch Perchman Rig 28g 1

Balzer Plattfisch Perchman Rig 28g – Precision Flatfish Leader with Adjustable Hook Height

The Balzer Plattfisch Perchman Rig is a purpose-built flatfish (Plattfisch) trace that presents two worm-baited hooks at different levels simultaneously – a proven tactic that triggers flatfish holding tight to the bottom.

Sliding Carriage for Perfect Bait Presentation

The adjustable sliding carriage lets you fine-tune hook height independently, so one hook fishes a whole worm just clear of the bottom while the second hook trails a worm section right along the seabed. That combination of movement and scent in two zones at once is a consistent flatfish trigger across a wide range of conditions.

Three Proven Methods, One Rig

From an anchored boat, cast the rig and retrieve it slowly in short pauses to imitate a feeding worm. From a drifting boat or charter vessel (Kutter), simply let the rig drag across the bottom with the tide. In spinner-fish mode, cast the 28g weight and work it back with stop-and-go retrieves – the weight keeps contact with the bottom while the hooks stay active. Two monofilament diameters (0.80 mm main and 0.40 mm hooklink) balance strength with natural bait movement.
