Abstract
A fishing rig is provided that combines differing combinations of assemblies to form a multipurpose fishing rig capable of fishing differing environments, species and differing fishing methods. The assemblies of the fishing rig include a main leader assembly that utilizes an inline float with a radial bore to attach to a side leader assembly. The side leader assembly includes at least a spacer bead and a cinch bead utilized for adjustable tensioning when attached to the main leader. A hook or lure assembly is provided and attached to the side leader assembly for either live bait, or lure fishing.
