a tip for c-rigging

[carolina-rig-01]

this is a tip i am sure a lot of you guys know about but i thought it might help some of the guys struggling with a caroling rig. instead of the swivel bead and sinker above you bait, try this. in the place you would put your sinker tie a jig and pig with a palamor knot, leave a long tag end and then tie your worm or whatever to the end of that. the jig will act as a sinker and you have another bait to git bit. basically you are fishing two baits at once and i can say from experience it will work. i have caught about as many on the jig as i have the worm or lizzard doing this. plus it is legal in tournies because they set rules on how many rods you can use at a time but say nothing about how many baits. i read of this after a pro (forgot which one) was having problems with fish hitting his sinker on a c-rig and not getting the bait. if you ever have this problem i would suggest giving this a try, you might catch fish you would never have caught otherwise. just thought this could help some of guys gain confidence in a carolina rig because i know it can be a tough presentation to get confidence in.
