Alright the subject may be tasteless, but I am at work and needed a
break before I dropped a monitor on my head and freed myself of this hell. But I digress. I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for keep a 3 way rig from tangling. I purchased some long wire, and a wire forming tool, and that seems to work for the most part, but I was just curious if anyone had some method they use for keep a 3 way rig from tangling around the baits. Those who come up to the NWC will get to see this rig I have been using for Deep water smallies with very good success, but the issue is I am down to much to make if optimal. It has also been serving up Walleyes as well, but that is just a nice ancillary benefit :-). My rig goes like this. I have a Rock Runner weight (like a bottom walker weight with long wire to keep it out of the rocks), then to the rock runner weight I attach my formed wire, which is formed into a V. On the bottom part of the wire form I run a 20lb (very stiff ) leader to a barrel swivel and then a fluoro leader from there to a hook. On the top one , I run straight fluoro from the wire form, and slide on two walleye spinner rig floats (little cylindrical floats), and then I use a fly tying threader to pull a rubber band through the float hole so that I can adjust how high my line floats. Once in the water, this seems to keep the baits separated for the most part, but I was wondering that I might be going through way too much rigging. The technique is killer, and has taught me a lot about deep water structure, but that is for another post. I guess I just wanted to see how you guys handle this and get your opinions. Thanks, Chris |
