Was talking with a guy today that said he uses a rig like above for pushing jigs. Just wondering if anyone here ever uses a “3 jig Rig”. Seems like it may be more trouble than it’s worth but if I know me, I’ll end up trying it.
You guys ever push multiple hooks on one rod?
May be good for scouting new areas.
Sometimes I will push and pull dbl jigs but not 3. IMO that's to much trouble
I push doubles a lot, but don’t know that I’d want to mess with 3.

Back years ago we used to push as many as 8. Just tie each one on with a small loop knot and push with 4 oz weights. KNew some guys who used 8 oz and as many as 12 per pole.
That’s crazy! I can tell ya how that would work out for me. I’d swing 1 fish in the boat and have to pull 3 hooks out of my forehead and neck.Quote:

I’m gonna try it with 3. I’ve been fishing a 1 ounce weight and 1 jig and doing pretty good. Gonna try 2 ounces and 3 jigs.
If this rain doesn’t mess tomorrow up.
We have a 2 pole rule here in corn country, but a 3 hook per pole rule too. I had been throwing the idea of a 3 jig rig just not sure the best way to tie them, I like the simplicity of a loop knot but kinda think droppers would catch more fish.
3 works just as well as one or two. The only problem is you have 3 hooks to get hung up instead of one or two. I lost quite a few when one hangs you may lose all 3. I only use the 3 rig in areas I know I will not hang up in. I will rig one or two jigs with a minnow hook for the 3rd hook or I just "tip" my jig with a minnow.
