When using a double rig slip float would you put the heavier lure on the top or on the bottom snap? Why?
Heavier on the bottom...doing it the other way the lighter jig not falling as fast as the heavier one can get tangled around the line above the heavier jig.
I tried the other way and nothing but head ache.
X2 with G
My vote is heavier on bottom. I use loop knots with two jigs in line 12- 18 inches apart...no float. I can try two different BG varieties to see which is favored.
Heavier on the bottom
Heavy on top . Cast better .
x4 agree with G
I could not imagine that nightmare on the end of any of my poles --- got a photo
My rig is basically a slip float rig that I fish with either one or two jigs. I would place the heavier jig on the bottom when using two jigs, otherwise I just use one. I use hook snaps so I can change lures or colors quickly. It is not a nightmare when the fish are biting the slip float rig.
