    I use both rigs, I've found the C&C work good on flats and open water. The Kentucky rigs are better when working up and down ledges. The Kentucky rigs work better when spider rigging around structure also, if you snag you can usually work it loose by bouncing the weight. I use this a lot on the Ten-Tom. I often start out at different depths and I mark my poles at 2' intervals with different colors of nail polish as a quick reference for depth.

    That's the Kentucky Rig we were talking about.

    Should've known.. I often imitate setups I see and try them out. The Kentucky has worked well for me over the years. Going to make some C&C's and try it out.

    I like the Kentucky for structure bumping when fish are hugging bottom deeper than 15' and only when fishing plain minnows. If I am using jig heads for color and added distance of bait separation then the C/C style is what I like. The jig head on the bottom of the rig will allow you to cover more depth and can be used with plain minnow or many mylar/plastic/feather/hair styles with a minnow. One twist for really shallow water like spawning fish is a C/C without the middle weight. A 1/8 or 1/4 or 1/2 oz jig head on bottom and a plain hook 1' or so above it. You will also see less fish shake the hook since the weight is not in the middle and its easier removing from the net. This is for me but experiment and see what you like.
