    Default Storing premade kentucky rigs?

    What do you guys use to keep your premade kentucky rigs from getting into a tangled mess? I was thinking of cutting little pieces of cardboard and wrapping them around that and having little "slit" to act as a line keeper.

    I use a pool Noodle take your fillet knife cut a slit in it to hold your weight and wind the line around it and pin the tag end with a piece of toothpic cut it about 12 in. it will hold about 8 rigs each.

    the cardboard with slit is what I use

    I went ahead and used some 1.5" x 2" pieces of cardboard with slits on each side. They seemed to work pretty well. We shall see.

    Thank you for calling them a Kentucky rig. The Ky rig was around long before Capps and Coleman came along. Sorry, pet peeve.
    The only way to have a good fishing spot is to make it yourself!

    Even though some people get these 2 rigs confused. they are different...

    The KY rig has the weight on the bottom with 2 or more hooks on dropper lines above the weight...

    The Capps and Coleman rig has a hook on the bottom with an egg sinker above that and then another hook above the egg sinker on a dropper line....

    I don't know, but I was buying a similar rig on a cardboard stick before either Capps or Coleman was born. I guess we can split hairs on any claim to fame though.

    We all were using pipe insulation before this.
