The drawings represent Leaders. Jared told me about this today as a suggestion, which I will probably try out after getting hung up and retying my line so much today fishing in the wood. Basically he said; Main line 8# mono, 15# braid, whatever you want to run. 8# mono = much cheaper route. Then your leader will be made up of 6# mono. On your main line, you will have a swivel clip. On your leaders, the top will have just a plain swivel to attach to the clip for replacing leaders as needed. Much faster than retying everything.

You can tie all of these examples straight on to your line also, if you aren't wanting to do leaders. I've done the bottom one (Double Jig; 1/8 oz and 1/4 oz) on both 8# mono and 15# braid. I like it but plan to try the top two examples also. The top two are minnow rigs using #1 or #2 hooks and 3/8th Egg weights.

There is 100 ways you can rig, these are just some examples I was shown today.

Hope this helps



This is a mini version of how I was taught to tie multiple jigs on a line. Just for a reference. Gives the top jig a little distance away from the main line this way.

Thank you for the pictures. Nice post!

I thought I would add this as well. This is a good and cheap way to keep your leaders stored and so that they wont get into a tangled mess. This is just made out of a noodle, the kids floatation device for pools and stuff. I had some extra laying around from my catfish noodles I've been working on. I wrap mine on Left to right. So I would take them off Right to left to avoid any problems.

Also, incase you were asking for what the actual rod holder looked like, this is the only pic I have so far.

Nice job! Nice job on the rig too! Ya givin me too many ideas! My boat would look like and 1950s satellite on the water.

Do not forget to label your rods just in case. Good looking setup ought to keep you busy.

you riggin guys tear me up,,, nice report and congrats on the catch and the day.

Yes sir, I put them on right after I took this actually lol. i had forgotten until then. Gotta get some packaging tape over them to make them last.
