Psycho's Surf Fishing Coquina Clam Dynamic Rig
The Psycho's Surf Fishing Coquina Clam Dynamic Rig is a custom-made pompano rig built around a hand-painted fixed float designed to resemble a coquina clam. Its longer single-hook configuration positions the hook around the midpoint of the rig, while the float helps position the bait for sight-feeding fish such as pompano.

Why This Tackle Works on the OBX
The Coquina Clam Dynamic Rig combines a fixed float with a single-hook bait presentation designed with sight-feeding fish in mind. Its hand-painted float resembles a coquina clam, a natural food source associated with pompano, making the design especially relevant for anglers targeting pompano from the surf.
That makes this rig a natural fit for Outer Banks and Hatteras Island surf fishing, where pompano, sea mullet and other species are commonly targeted with bait rigs. Frank & Fran's has also featured the Psycho's Coquina Clam in its Outer Banks fishing reports as a pompano rig used by local anglers.
When to Use This Tackle
Use the Psycho's Surf Fishing Coquina Clam Dynamic Rig when fishing bait from the surf and you want a fixed-float presentation aimed especially at pompano and other sight-feeding fish. The manufacturer also recommends the rig for whiting, trout, redfish, black drum, and additional species.
