Spider rig dbl rigs

[Tom 513]

Does everyone use jig heads when tieing double rigs or do some of you run a combination of hooks and jig heads? reason being I usually pre tie a dble Capps and Colman style rig with 1/16"oz jig heads, then got to thinking if I tied the top rig with a small hook vs a jig head it would have less weight so more action. I discussed this with Russ Bailly (Brushpile fishing) at a show this past winter and recommended using a small sickle style worm hook by Matzula as the top jig, well I ordered a couple small bags but cant seem to find them anywhere.

I use two #1 duo lock snaps when I tie my rigs, this way I can change out any lure or hook that I may need in any scenario. The fish don't mind the extra hardware down here, they ain't skiddish. I prefer the stainless steels from Janns Netcraft, the other #1 sizes from most manufacturers are to large for double rigs, but fine for crank-baits and mainlines.

Yes, I've used the duo locks but didnt care for them. I just think using your fav plastic on a sm worm hook lets the offering have more action then a lead head jig.

I use a #2 long shank aberdeen on top. Never ran it with plastic, always with a minnow.

1/8 oz. sickle jigs on bottom with gnats on top . Two poles this way and gnats and jigs reversed on the other two . All with fas-snaps so I can switch to which the fish are hitting . My first switch will be to red , gold , or green hooks .

I make mine up with a #2 aberdeen minnow hook on top and a 1/16th. oz. pony head jig on the bottom. I use this set up 95% of the time.

Interesting thread, I want to see more, on this!

I've done it both ways, switching off on using minnows and jigs on both hooks at different times. I prefer the jigs since I have become lazy and don't need to get a new jig after every fish. I was fishing doubles deep this past week, with a 1/32 oz jig on top and a 1/4 oz jig on the bottom. At one point I went to a 1/2 oz sinker on the bottom with a 1/32 oz on top just so I could get past the white bass schools to the crapper suspended below them.

Just fish what ever combination that makes you the happiest and works for the moment.

Its good to hear you guys are tieing similar rigs, here is the Matzula hooks I spoke of

I run a little bit of everything... I’ll do just two hooks or a hook and 1/8oz jig or gnat and jig, double gnats... just depends on what they want!
