Never heard of it. If there's anything that *could* be called a specifically
Portland Rig it's the old-sparkplug on a rotten bottom used instead of a
lead when shore congering among suburban-semi sized rocks.

Or are you headed for Portland and looking for something suitable for the
fishing there?

If so now, and for the next couple of months, float fishing and spinning
will be the most productive. An adjustable sliding float set to fish -just-
above the kelp in the bottom of a gully will pull out a few - you'll need
quick reactions mind.

Cheerio,

Hi,
do you mean Portsmouth rig - 2 hooks clipped down with long snoods for
distance ?

Suspect it's probably the one for bass in the tide rips.

small swivel to 20lb 2.5 foot length. Put another small swivel loose on this
and then tie of the other end to a small swivel (have a bead either side of
the loose swivel).
Beneath that tie a 2 foot length of rotten bottom to a lead.
On the loose swivel that is free sliding attach a 2 foot length of amnesia
or flurocarbon about 20lb to a size 2 hook.
