Thread: Double minnow rigs

You can buy either of these pre rigged or tie your own. In my humble opinion, the C and C gives a minner a little more wiggle room to look more natural. Also seems easier to get it unhung because of the weight being in the middle. I rarely lose one. I think it all comes down to personal preference. Not sure one is better than the other.

It may be because most are blue in the face from explaining double rigs. There have been at least a half a dozen threads in the last week about them. What is most frustrating is the original posters usually don't even show any interest or make a response to their own thread. I will follow by saying I'm the total opposite, I prefer a Kentucky style when fishing deep just off the bottom in dead of winter and a middle sliding egg weight rig when fishing any other time, I won't call it a capps and coleman rig, cause I don't like a fixed weight. I will call it a country boy, sliding weight double minner rig!
