Look just like those I get from luv2fsh2 on ebay he calls them moe baits.
In a three rig not so hard on the back,place slightly larger baits in the center will help keep it from turning. It is a schooler bait used around fish action not a searching tool. |

Hard to argue with the sucsess of the A-rig, glad the Elites can't use it, but it should be fun for rec fisherman to give it a go.

My thoughts exactly. I will get one as soon as I have a rod suitable to throw it.

Living in MN means I don't even have to think about using it since it's not even close to legal here...

I'm still resisting using it for bass fishing, but I'd like to see how it would do in a school of lake perch or crappie!

They look good in the water but they for sure aren't the magic bullet. I tossed one for an hour the other day but had to put it down because I was getting outfished by my buddy in the back of the boat tossing a trap and a small swimbait. Don't get one close to a stump either, that sucker will just out and grab ahold and not let go!

A good train of thought is if one sees jumps go to an A rig,if not do what you generally do.
Great fall bait and after fry are in the water,as they target the ball not an individual. Multi bladed spinnerbaits mimic the same. |

Good luck to all of you!
I'm just sitting back and waiting for the 'Five That Got Away' posts. I too think it could be a deadly Crappie rig. Stripers too. lilmule, good advice.

The Major tested his out on Anna last weekend. Found that the bait took about 6 seconds to find the bottom in 30' of water. It also snagged everything related to the bottom too. Luckily he had 65lb braid and ended up straightening out multiple hooks to retrieve it.
My guess is there will be some very upset fishermen coming off the water soon..... |

My own A rig which is exactly like the one he purchased as from same guy,is not so at all,all arnt created equal many have heavier heads and then some tend to place additional weight on in the form of lead heads or shakey heads.Mine can be waked or run 5-6 ft deep,I use no additional weight,even with the shakey heads can run it in sight if needed goes down to 10-12 ft,deeper one would have to wait a bit or use heavier heads.
Certain amount of lift involved as well,this is about 3/8 but with all those making them some are 1/2 and up then with additional shakey heads even more,then more on that if say a 5 rig.You dont have to dredge with them and they dont have to weigh a ton,I use mine shallow very shallow. Three horny toads with one screwlock hook each can be run surfaced easily,doesnt take a magnum rod or musky rod if so then buy from a different maker. |
