    Default poll....double rig slip float


    When using a double rig slip float would you put the heavier lure on the top or on the bottom snap? Why?

    Heavier on the bottom...doing it the other way the lighter jig not falling as fast as the heavier one can get tangled around the line above the heavier jig.

    My vote is heavier on bottom. I use loop knots with two jigs in line 12- 18 inches apart...no float. I can try two different BG varieties to see which is favored.
    Triton 190FS, 200hp Optimax, HB 798C HD & War Eagle 548LDV, HiTek, 30hp Mercury, HB 998C HD
    Fishing is a privilege...catching is a bonus. Enjoy each precious moment we have to experience our great outdoors!
