Double minnow trolling rigs??

[Handicrappie]

Do most of you guys make your own or buy rigs pre-rigged? I have been buying mine from Grizzly but they recently changed them up and I do not like them as well. Also looking for rigs that come with stainless hooks. Thanks for any input.

I just tie to my main line. You can slide your hooks or jigs up the line and tie them into a loop.

I tie my own. I keep them in the rig box from Cabelas. The one that looks like the yellow ladder. Holds 36 rigs in each box on 18 holders. Some with hooks, some with jigs, and some with both. I use another box for my walleye live bait rigs. On my rigs with hooks, I have some with the weight in the middle, and some with the weight on bottom. I use a snap swivel where the weight goes so I can change sizes easy. I also use a snap swivel on the top of the rig and a barrel swivel on the end of my main line so that I can change a broken rig fast, or change the style of rig I'm using. I tie everything using palomar knots.

I use a 12 lb hi viz for the main line and tie my rigs with Silver Thread AN-40 in an 8 or 10 lb. It stays fresh for years in a rig box inside of a soft tackle box.

I bought a bunch of pre made ones but now I have found that I like tying mine to the main line. Its pretty quick once you get used to it.

i make mine own sometimes i use beads , spinners , straight jigs, tubes on a minnow hook then tip with a minnow if you make your own you can make them all kind of ways!!!!!!!!

Hey Meat - How did they change them. I was about to place a order. I get the ones on the clothes hanger tubes 1/2 oz.

On the other hand - BigRiver if you'll make me a few of those soft tackle boxes stuffed full, I'll just use them

Billy, the last ones I bought had shorter wire leads on the top hook. The older ones were a 3 to 4 in lead and the new ones are maybe an inch. The bottom line now twist around the top leader wire and is a pain to untwist. It's not a deal breaker on the rigs but I definitely liked the old ones better.

Can't go wrong with Capps and Coleman rigs.

Even at a dollar an hour that could get expensive. LOL
