Thread: Switched to spider rigging

First problem I see is that you need to have the boat in the water for the system to function normally other than that it looks good

I use 1/32oz with a 1/4oz weight about 15" above jig. I find the smaller heads work better for me. Try some of both and see what works for u. Good luck to you.

I use both 1/32 and 1/16th jigs tipped with 1/2-3/4oz. Weight about 18-24" above jig.

IMO to much weight. If you are too going to tight line brush just a good sized split shot will work. I keep mine about 16" above hook. Most times I use just a #8 hook.

I use a 3/8 or 1/2 about 12 inches above a gold hook with minnow or 1/32 jig. ease up to the pile and stop , when the line gets vertical look out! Also keep it about 12 foot down in the water, thats if you are fishing brush in 16 to 20 foot of water, deeper brush you'll have to go deeper.

Try not to move more than .2 mph if possible.

6 rods is plenty to watch. Ive fished 8 before but 6 is plenty if theyre biting any at all. If theyre biting fairly regular then keeping 4 in the water is a chore. Good luck to ya.

There will be many opinions on this I gather, but for slow trolling, pushing, or tightlining I use a 3/4 ounce lead with about a 20" leader where a 1/16 ounce minnow tipped jig can be found on the end. When fishing right over top of brush, with limited movement, a splitshot above a hook and minnow is all that's needed.
