FISHING RODS FOR FLAT FISHING
When you are going to catch flatfish, it is of course important that you have the right equipment. Regardless of whether you prefer to catch flatfish from a boat, the shore or a pier, you can, for example, use one of our spinning rods or telescopic rods . If it is one of our spinning rods that you are going to try your hand at, you can advantageously buy a rod that is 7 to 9 feet long, as they, among other things, give you the opportunity to make long casts.
You can use several different types of bait such as brush and sand worms , sandeel and much more. However, Gulp is also a really good alternative if you don't want to use live bait.
PRECAUTION FOR FLATFISH
Anglers practice several different methods when catching flatfish. Some choose to simply leave the leader on the seabed, while others actively – but slowly – spin the leader across the seabed. Regardless of which method you practice, a colorful leader for flatfish can be a great starting point.
For example, you can make your own rigs or jigs with our Spin N Glow beads with wings , which are size 14. The wings on these beads make them look like colorful insects that flatfish bite into. It is both fun and educational to make your own jigs, but if you think it is too time-consuming to make your own rigs and jigs, you can look in the direction of the many other jigs that you will find on this page.
If you prefer to buy a more classic leader, you can, for example, look towards our popular Kinetic Sabiki Classic Plaice Leader , which is a well-catching rig for flatfish, which is also available in several different sizes and colors.
Whether you are fishing for flatfish from a boat, shore or pier, our Zebco Flatty Teaser Inline is another option for a perfect ready-made rig for flatfish fishing. The rig has 2 single hooks in size 1 – and the hooks are naturally barbed.
