Thread: Double minnow rigs

Yellowjacket.

Dillon Stocking of Get Outdoors Guide Service does a good video on the way that I like to tie my rigs.

How I tie my rigs when spider rigging... - Get Outdoors Guide Service-Dillon Stocking

great video. i always like seeing different ways to run minnow rigs even though im partial to a jig

sounds like a recipe for disater eays t tangle up and just a mess the more fancy a rig the easier it is to screw up and makes fishing not as relaxing just get a decent bobber a slip weight and good hook

Sinker on bottom, 2 number 2 hooks tied 12 and 24 inches above via small loop knots

I’m shocked more people haven’t weighed in on this. The rig mentioned above is the Kentucky rig. I use it in water shallower water but under normal circumstances I use the Capps and Coleman rig. You can buy either of these pre rigged or tie your own. In my humble opinion, the C and C gives a minner a little more wiggle room to look more natural. Also seems easier to get it unhung because of the weight being in the middle. I rarely lose one. I think it all comes down to personal preference. Not sure one is better than the other.

It may be because most are blue in the face from explaining double rigs. There have been at least a half a dozen threads in the last week about them. What is most frustrating is the original posters usually don't even show any interest or make a response to their own thread. I will follow by saying I'm the total opposite, I prefer a Kentucky style when fishing deep just off the bottom in dead of winter and a middle sliding egg weight rig when fishing any other time, I won't call it a capps and coleman rig, cause I don't like a fixed weight. I will call it a country boy, sliding weight double minner rig!

Thanks G, been trying to figure out how to tie those things for years now. Guess I ain't got an excuse not to go fishing now
