Fish for herring at the mouth of rivers. Herring are on their way upriver. Moving tides is the key to successful herring fishing. The best rigs to use are Sabiki rigs or Mustad rigs. The Sabiki rigs have tinsel whipped to 5 small hooks running up and down a leader. The mustad rigs have small rubber shrimp. Basically you tie your line to the top and slip a sinker on the bottom. Use the lightest sinker possible to hit the bottom. All you do is either cast the line out and jig it in or you vertically jig off a dock.

Here is a tip: Once you hook a herring, let it swim for a few seconds before hauling the fish in. I've done this a lot of times and I've gotten multiple hook ups. Sometimes 3 or 4 fish at the same time.

Good luck
