Could you evaluate this Rig for me please

[Mumpy]

Hey guys, I'm heading to Eufaula Crappie fishing on Saturday with my Dad (69) (Me 46) and this will be the first time I've tried Spider Rigging, I think most of you have already helped me already on that. Anyway, I want to get a bunch of Rigs tied up before we go to save time on the water but I don't want to tie a bunch and find out on the water that I'm doing it wrong. So, could you evaluate this for me before I begin pre-rigging my behind off?

Thx

That should work for trolling. A Capps -n- Coleman rig would be great for vertical fishing. A slip bobber rig is great for depths under 15 feet. A Kentucky rig is great for deep water fishing. Here is a thread where members posted their favorite setups.

That rig is just fine......use a egg sinker and loop the line through it several times to hold it in place. egg sinker size? well it depends on your jig weight.....I try to rig mine where my total weight jigs and egg sinker is around 1/2 to 5/8 oz. So I use a 3/8 egg sinker and two 1/8 oz jigs. Speed....from .2 to .5 mph by GPS.

Ok, so those lengths are ok for Spider Rigging, 6" leader for the one and 16" to the Sinker and 16" to the Jig?

Just wanna make sure

My Rods and Reels JUST ARRIVED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm going to be BUSY BUSY!

That will work just fine. As you go along you will refine your Riggs to suit different situations.

Will work but..... I have found that the bottom hook or jig will tangle on the weight when the line is that long below the weight. I like no more than 8 inches of line below my weight. From the swivel down to the weight is 32 inches right now. I shorten that line when fishing shallow waters.

Re-tie em Mumpy, heard tell he told someone the other day that there are alot of ways to do it but HIS was the right way!!!!

Hard to agrue with his pics!! You gonna change up what you do alot first starting out, dont tie no bunch of extras. Those rigs will work, go feshing and have fun.
