Very nice rig , I've gotta try this out , ...looks like it really has some advantages over the rig , that I had used on my few large shads so far ,........thanks a lot for sharing , Mikko ! Greetz , Dieter
Mikko, perhaps wrapping the rig with a heavy material or pinching a heavy material on to the wire, would streamline the weighting a bit.(just a thought) I do see the benefit of being able to easily swap different weights. Your videos are inspiring. Thank you!
Mikko get Knipex cutters. In case if u ever need to cut your hooks when unhooking the fish it will be like cutting a piece of paper with scissors. Of course they are brilliant for all our lure making needs. They cut everything up to 4 mm I think. Is it not better to put a metal pin into the body od soft plastic right before the treble then to put the hook into it? Cheers
hey Mikko, don't you have the problem that the piece of stainless steal wire where you hang your weight and trace wil suffer metal fatique after a lot of pikes? I've had those pieces extra wire but every time I catch a pike it slightly bends en it will edventually be weak and you can snap it of quite eassily.
+708jelle the 1mm wire that i use on mine has never snapped off or opened on me and i have been fishing with a rig such as this for 2 years now. If you are really worried that you might get into a situation where the weight lock might open or get broken due to metal fatigue just make that loop a closed one and just add the barrel weight to the snap link on you leader instead.
+john smith yes its possible but since i can make them my self and buying them is not really that expensive and it's a hazard that I'm willing to make. The few years that I've used this method I've yet to loose any rubbers from this rig.
the magnet idea would work if you would have it in a capsule inside the lure it self, sort of like storm wild eye has but really this method i use is really the easiest method i've used so far, sometimes less is more ;)
Sometimes. But maybe I like your videos so much I just want you to push the boundaries so I could watch them and get the joy I get from the other videos.
Very nice way to attach the two stingers. Do you use any soft plastic glue once they get beat up by some big teeth? btw great shirt mayhem played over the weekend here in Boston \m/
i doupt that you will be able to find the same one i have since its 20 years old already. but you should be able to find similar multitools from most hardware stores

thank you for all your great video's! They really help me with creating my own lures and rigs!! Keep up the great works....

that method would work too, but i just prefer the way i do it in the video its just so versatile
what bait is that called!? it looks amazing and want to get my hands on one
i call that one the bigmouth shad i sell them and other baits occasionally on my facebook at solarfallbaits finland group

Isnt it possible that the soft plastic lure can be knocked off the wire and become lost?
+john smith yes its possible but since i can make them my self and buying them is not really that expensive and it's a hazard that I'm willing to make. The few years that I've used this method I've yet to loose any rubbers from this rig.
you ever consider putting magnets into the soft plastic to hold the hooks in place?
+Pawel Sawicki thats probably not a very good idea once the pikes tear the soft plastic enough the magnets will just fall off
Just an idea. Or a hard inside soft outside that slips over

Or you can get your hands dirthy and try yourself. Make a vid so we can watch instead :P

no i dont really use any glue or mend it on my softies. i just make new ones
Where to get that black and yellow screw driver
i doupt that you will be able to find the same one i have since its 20 years old already. but you should be able to find similar multitools from most hardware stores
That would be a good rig for bluefish here in the Eastern USA
What bais it is?
@@oscardelgado3373 where i Can buy this bait in Poland. Allegro?
Tell me what kind of music is played 1:30?
+Владислав Гетманский thats just some royalty free music, dont recall what the track is called
The music lol! Wtf are you trying to do to my head lol
Nice shirt!
super
they are tin snips not wire cutters
They look like Lures not Baits. Baits are edible, lures are not.
yet people call these lures soft baits
