I'm fairly new to spider rigging and I was wondering if anyone would share how they rig up a double jig rig? I have just been fishing with Minnows lately using a c&c rigs. I tried using same setup for jigs but I feel there's a better way.

Tie your first jig on and leave several feet of tag end, hold tag and main line parallel and wrap around 2 fingers 3 times and then drop the jig through the loop twice, this will make a dropper. You should
Still have about 30" of tag end. Slide your egg weight on mainline and tie your bottom jig on. Use a split shot without the wings to secure the egg weight. I always make my top jig lighter and bottom heavier

thats cool...so you tie the jig FIRST...THEN the loops to make the dropper loop....I have been trying to do this but without tying the jig first..thanks for that......Quote:

Haven't tried tieing any yet but if I have problems I will let you know. Thank you so much!
You can also slip a jig over the bare hook of your C&C rig and keep on fishing without tying anything.
I do that sometimes but only with soft plastics, I refer to my 'jigs' as a lead head with some sort of feather/furry body and tail tied onto it
