Good one!:D That gave me a good chuckle.

X2 for Slabby Joe's comment. I need a diagram or something. I definitely got lost in the translation also.

LBM, your rig looks pretty slick. So you just hammer the ends of a welding rod flat, drill holes in the ends, and round the edges with a grinder? Looks like the rest is just split rings and swivels. That seems doable.

Exactly. The ends can't be hammered out with one or two blows or they will split. Just tap tap with many lesser taps and it will flatten out OK.

Dang it Ron you shouldn't be divulging such top secret high value techniques for brush relocation. :D:D

When the Chattester gets around to showing his diagrams he probably won't be showing them with the grappling hook components he uses with his rigging. :D

since it seems to be give up your rig secret week here's one of mine....

Use the same type of equip as LBM except use about 3 feet of weld rod and on the bottom tie a jig on with only 4 inches of line between the rod and the jig. Use this rig in 5 foot of water or less on the nastiest brush you can find. It really shines on the stuff that sticks out of the water that you have to use long rods to reach. Remember to use split ring on the weld rod as you drill cuts may not be smooth.

And we call this crappie fishing. And to think I have been fishing wrong all these years. Next we need to get out the snaging rods. big bait big fish.
:D:D:D

I have fished a method similar to the welding rod thing, only I use wire coat hangers cut to various lenghts. Depending on how much weight I want.
This also makes a good drift rig...

It looks like you are going cat fishing. I thought you only fished for crappie.
now the word is out.
