This is a rig that can be used when drifting for snapper. The length of the dropper can be made as long or short as you like. Just remember the longer they are the more likely you will get a tangle.

Depending on the speed of the drift your boat is in you can raise the rig off the bottom presenting your baits at varied depths. This method enables you to cover a huge amount of water giving you the best chance of finding some fish.

When you get onto a fish you can then drop the anchor and fish with the more standard setup as in the above diagram.
