A Lindy Rig is nothing more than a Carolina Rig with a "walking type" sinker
and live bait. Just as with C-Rigs, leader length is dependant on
conditions at the time. I've used Lindy Rigs with 18" leaders, I've used
them with 8' leaders.

I've seen them pre-packaged and it appears that they're made with mono in
the 10 pound class, but most guys I know just build them with what's on
hand.

Usually the rigs are about 3ft in length. Depending on "conditions" they can
get to about 12ft long.

Here's their website,
http://lindyfishingtackle.com/tackle...me.php?cat=266, why
don't you give them a shout via e-mail and find out? To me, it looks like
generic mono line, approximately 10 lb. test.

I don't think Ted would like me even asking at this point,, you see I'm
trying to take a part of that market, :-) my Rock hopper is 25 times
more snag resistant than the weight he now uses for that rig.

His site does not give line or hook size
