Trolling & Spider Rigging

[olesilverside]

AFTER YESTERDAY I AM CONVINCED SPIDER RIGGING IS ANOTHER BUTT KICKIN WAY TO CATCH THEM. BUT TRUMAN LAKE DOES HAVE TREES, SO I FOUND THIS DOUBLE RIG GUIDES USE IN ARKANSAS, TIED ONE UP THIS AM, WOULD DEFINETLY WANT THEM TIED UP AHEAD.... TAKES FOREVER... BUT THEY SAID THEY TIE UP A BUNCH WITH DIFFERENT COLORS ON THEM.. START WITH A 3 WAY SWIVEL, THEN ABOUT 18" LINE TO ONE SWIVEL, SLIP A SMALL EGG SINKER ON THIS LINE THEN TIE ON A BARREL SWIVEL, THEN ABOUT 15" OF LINE AND A JIG. THEN TIE ANOTHER LINE AND JIG ABOUT 12" LONG TO ANOTHER SWIVEL. THEN TIE A SAFETY SNAP ON YOUR RODS LINE, JUST SNAP IT TO THE 3RD SWIVEL WHEN READY TO USE.... GOING TO TRY IT OUT FIRST,... I ALWAYS JUST TIE MY FIRST JIG RIGHT TO THE LINE WITH A PALOMAR KNOT THEN DROP 18" OR SO AND TIE ON THE SECOND JIG, QUICK AND EASY AND I CATCH AS MANY ON THE TOP JIG AS I DO THE BOTTOM, SO DON'T KNOW IF IT WORTH THE TROUBLE TO TIE UP A BUNCH AHEAD.... WHAT DO YOU FISHERMEN DO OR USE????..

Looks good Silver! That will work. Way to completed for me. Have hard enough time keeping one jig on. Must the the picture....that line looks to be about 40#.

That Line Is 6# Test Suffix Siege Neon Tangerine...... Putting 10# On The Rod, Then Hope The 6 Would Break First If I Hang Up..... Hell It May Be Way More Trouble Than It Is Worth, But Will Try Anything Once.......

Uhhhhhhhh, I will try "most" things once. That's a good looking rig, Monty. Looks like a modified Kentucky rig.

I Do The Same. Jig With A Palomar Knot Then 18" And Another Jig. I Like To Keep It Simple.

Hookedonfishin' welcome to the site. I have a bunch similar to that tied up. But oftenjust tie jigs with palomer knot about 10" apart. When rigging and needing extra weight I will tie jigs about 20" apart with 1/2 oz. weight in between.

I like to use on jig on a loop knot. Then about a foot below, I'll put a 3/8 or 1/2 oz egg sinker inline, then about 8" under the weight, another jig tied with a palomer knot at the bottom.
