    Default Pulling A-rigs 5-23


    went to run my boat yesterday before i take it to the beach for the summer and thought id try something different.

    pulled my home made A-rigs that i used all the time in the cold weather months. No downriggers, no extra lead. straight 20 and 25lb mono.

    had a field day. Caught 3 hybrids from 19-22 inches, at least 15 striper and cant tell you how many spots/bass. Kept 1 hybrid for supper and my limit of bass for the neighbor who keeps bugging me for fish and the rest got the release.

    Fished from 8:30am until 2pm.

    Still have a small pile of the rigs remaining for anyone who is interested. those who fish the Roanoke or Cedar creek, these should work great trolling with the current!



    Full day 1/2 day or evening Striper/Crappie fishing trips available at a very affordable price for
    Lake Norman, Badin, Wateree, High Rock.

    For those that us a-rigs Petes are as good as you are going to find. I can put a lot heavier jig head on them and get them deeper than the cheaper name brand ones.

    I only make shad color and Chartreuse. Some days it really varies but its been 50/50 as of late on the bite.

    Id guestimate i let out approx 40 or so yards.
