Esox pro Posted August 27, 2020 Posted August 27, 2020 Someone i know using this fishing rig but what is circled he uses a steel leader except for the sinker he threads line back through swivel like dropshot but the sinker is tangling in the car and a lot of times the leader and sinker line tangle so i am wondering what he can do to reduce the tangles without changing anything he uses 20lb power pro Quote

@reelChris Posted August 29, 2020 Posted August 29, 2020 The tangles are secondary to the main problem that the rig is way over complicated. There's no reason to use a clip and a second swivel to attach the leader/hook. Just tie direct to a a triple swivel and you'll save a lot of unnecessary hardware. The second clip for the weight can be eliminated with a dropper or loop knot. Quote
Super User Choporoz Posted August 29, 2020 Super User Posted August 29, 2020 @Esox pro, how does he do with that? I've considered breaking out a walleye bottom bouncer and trying it for bass, but never get around to it....that looks somewhat similar Quote
