Concocted Up A Couple BFS Lures - Fingers Crossed They Work

[ghost]

Dual BFS swimbait rig.

 

Actually it's an old Roadrunner Reality Shad Buffet Rig.

I threw on the paddle tails instead of the chubby Crappie bodies that were stock to this rig.

 

Bottom swimbait is 1/8oz jighead and top is 1/16oz jighead.

Surprisingly, this dual rig casts good and far, also when reeling in; it swims vertical. Like the heavier jig is on the bottom and lighter jig is on top, perpendicular to each other...as long as you do a steady retrieve and don't burn it in.

 

I have 2 or 3 spares of these rigs. I may try it out with a 1/8oz and 1/16oz chatterbaits. I can only imagine how much vibration it'll throw off. Hopefully it'll swim correctly. 

Or I may figure out how to rig with a couple BFS crankbaits or minnows. I see much potential in this dual rig!

I haven't thrown this rig in years and forgot I had it in my pack.

When the weather warms up, I think this will be bitchin' fish catchin' rig to use!

 

Here's the chatterbait rig I just did up. 1/8oz on bottom, 1/16 oz on top. Total weight 3/8oz.

 

Another hair brain idea for a BFS type lure.

 

Not sure what the weedless drop shot hook is. I added a small split shot on the middle bottom( super glued the split shot so it stays in place) for I'm hoping a horizontal fall with soft plastic.

 

That's a Lake Fork Live Baby Shad, 2.25". I can also try a Zoom Tiny Fluke 3", and a Zoom Salty Super Fluke 4".

The 1st pic with the 2.25" baby shad weighs at 1/8oz.

 

With all 3 shad bodies, I should be able to cast the distance I want and get the sink rate to mimic a dying small shad when I shake twitch the rod.

 

I'll have to wait till this coming weekend to give it a go.

Nice!! Looks like fun.

 

Are the chatterbait home made? 

 

 

[JackstrawIII]

Very cool. I'd throw that for sure!

[ghost]

RRocket, the chatterbaits are not home made. Those are from Zman.

I wouldn’t go BFS with that rig.

Looks good and will catch bass.

Nice work. Jackall has a BFS A-rig I was just looking at.
