Default Anybody using recoil rigs for dropshotting?

I got a couple of these from a buddy last winter and have been using them this summer and they are AWESOME! It just gives you that extra movement you need from time to time. I used them on bedding fish this year and it was the ticket. It basically just a piece of elastic that streches to give you more bait movement with out moving the weight. I went to a craft store and bought a roll of thin elastic for like $6 and its been working fine (it wil get funky and you will have to pitch it but hell you gotta a whole roll). if you havent seen these yet here is the link

We used to call them rubber band rig many years ago, fortunately somebody had the great idea to develop spectastic, them rubber bands and rubber thread were a PITA cuz they broke easily.
