Rigging Question
The other day i picked up some soft plastic leech baits from bass pro shops.
They are 3 inches long and pretty thin and I have no idea how i should rig them other than a drop shot. They look pretty cool and am looking to get some good use out of them. Anybody ever use them? Thanks. |

Sounds like a pretty good hair jig trailer!

I've used the Gulp leech on a DS. They worked pretty good.

They use them a bit for smallmouth around here. Mostly dropshotting I believe, but they're really popular for walleye here as well.

Yep Walleye fishing is where I've seen leeches used most often. They fish them on Lindy rigs and I've seen them used as trailors on single hook, inline type Walleye spinners. Seen them on tv that is, not much Walleye fishing around here. I don't see any reason why they wouldn't work on Lg mths too.

I'm definitely see that this is going to work well on a drop shot. I also wanted to try and nose hook it on a t rig. Their really light so i definitely needs some weight to cast.

Another idea would be to throw them nose hooked on a split shot rig with a spinning rod.
