Hellofagood Dropper Rig Photo

This my friends has been one hell of a good dropper rig set up for me. I present two different baits, colors at different depths. The top jig is attached by a dropper loop. The bottom Pinmin is attached by a Palomar knot. Tip it with a minnow or a waxworm.

Ship, that looks like a killer combo there. I'll give it a try when we get open water this spring.:D Really hard to cut trolling lanes in the ice. :eek: :)

Thank you my friend.

Ship - are you tying the leader down to the second lure onto the hook of the first one. Can't quite tell from the pic.

Thanks

looks good ship

I've never tried that type of rig. Do you troll it or jig? Looks good though.

I jig it with or without a slip float.

Place both jigs on your leader. Do not tie them on yet...just place the line through both. Now tie the bottom one first with a palomar knot. Slide the top one up the leader to where you want it and tie it with a loop knot.

Very nice.What has been your most sucessfull distance between the two lures?

Good looking rig there son:D

10 to 14 inches depends on how deep I am fishing. Just so the two colors can both be seen by the predatory fish and give an illusion that triggers bites.

Thank you dad. It works quite well in "Hard" or "Soft" water. Personally, I do not ice fish but people have used this setup ice fishing.

very nice ship trying to tie some hackle on your ice blade . We have made many of these in the past by soldering hooks into blades the blades are very inexpensive and we used split rings in the eye of the blade you can buy ice blades from worth company.

Also you can get blades at Janns Netcraft. Be sure to use gold hooks when soldering.
