Slip-Sinker Rigs |
||||
Bass Crappies Walleye |
This is a basic slip-sinker rig. In involves an egg sinker, a bead, a swivel, and a hook of your choice. This rig works good in current when the catfish are suspended on the bottom. To make this floating slip-sinker rig, thread a crappie float onto your leader and peg it in place. This reduces snagging and keeps the bait at the fishs' eye level. If you don't have a 3-way swivel, you can just use a regular barrell swivel. Tie your main line to the swivel and then attach a length of leader measuring 12-18" and a hook to the other side. On the side where you tied your main line, tie on a length of line and attach a bell sinker on the end. |
This is an adjustible slip-sinker rig to use on a relatively clean bottom. It has either a split-shot to stop the egg sinker or it has a bobber stop and a bead. The weight of the sinker and the size of the hook are determined by the conditions being fished under. To make this 3-way rig, tie your main line to a 3-way swivel. Then on the bottom ring of the 3-way swivel, tie a leader with a bell sinker attached to it. On the other ring, attach a leader with a hook attached to the end and use whatever bait is desired. Tie on a sliding-dropper with a barrel swivel and a bell sinker and add a bead, another swivel, and a hook. |
