A-Rigs

What baits should I put on an Alabama rig?

I have never used the rig yet but will be tring some strike king shadaliocous swim baits on mine.

Far and away my top producer on it is the LFT LIve Magic Shad. Second is the Super Swimming Fluke Jr. Third is...well, I haven't found any reason to fish anything else on it. Want a real treat with it- Put 3 1/4 ounce scroungers on the bottom three. When they want action...Katie bar the door!

In addition to the above, Keitech Swing Impact and Fat Impact have worked well for me and my fishing buddy. The smaller 2.8" will work sometimes when the bigger sizes aren't. Only problem with Keitech is being from Japan, it takes a while for retailers to refresh their stock, they've sold well here the local tackleshops can't keep them on the shelves and even the online retailers are mostly out of stock on the good colors.

My intelligence sources tell me grubs have worked well also, haven't tried them myself. Same sources tell me the a-rig bite slowed down on Table Rock this weekend, could be the windless, blue sky, dry upper 70's weather is the cause. Tough fishing but a good time to be on the water in this area.

My goal is to minimize the weight. I was using small LFT Live Magic Shad on the outside

arms, no weight and light wire 4/0 Offset Worm Hooks. On the middle arm, Johnson Silver

Minnow. Last weekend we put a willow blade on the center arm above the swivel attachment

and rigged a bigger LFT Shad on a 6/0 heavy duty worm hook.

So far, neither me or any of my partners have caught a single fish on the outside baits.

100% of our hook-ups are on the middle lure. I think a variety of combinations will work

just fine, but according to Andy Posse, flash in the middle is the most important part of

the rigging

Put 5 Rat-L-Traps on it. All one size or mixed sizes.
