    I’ll start pushing them in a week or so. I’ll take a picture of it.
    It’s very simple. I use a 3 oz weight at the tag end of my main line with a loop tied in the main line a foot or so up. Same as a Kentucky rig. Put the crank on the loop.

    My setup is similar to this other than from the swivel at the end of my main line I attach the 2 or 3 oz weight which has a 3 foot or so leader from it with another swivel to add the crankbait. Always worked well for me. I started "pushing" a few years ago because I didn't want to keep multiple pole setups. Now I have one set of 14ft Denali's that I can slow troll jigs/minnows or I can slap 3 oz weights on them and push cranks!

    I use the same set up but haven't come up with a good way to store the weights.
