Cork Dust Posted March 30, 2010 Posted March 30, 2010 I bit.After inspecting these as a unit. Some suggestions on re-rigging them seemed appropriate. I switched-out the existing treble for a 2X 1/0 Gamakatsu. I also changed the rear bead swivel to a six bead to move the hook well back of the bait's tail and retied with fishing fool knots on both ends after testing the leader material's break strength. IF the surgical tubing pieces come with the unrigged paired bait bodies, this may be a more cost effective way to go. Someone wearing a two piece bathing suit nearly shot me over poorly sealed herring strips discovered in an onboard cooler. I have never been all that fond of the mess associated with running meat rig's, so we'll have to see.After having read through a few hundred threads (I do have a VERY full personal life, but this is about FISHING!), these seem very speed and delivery device tolerant. Oil packed tuna, herring oil, favorite paste lure in the cavity. Some folks are replacing the scent pad with a shamwow fabric piece (smaller air pockets and hydrophillic material).Now, IF the fish will only bite on them as quickly as I did!
A-Fishy-Anado Posted March 30, 2010 Posted March 30, 2010 I have not run these but they certainly have my attention t:D:DI bit.Someone wearing a two piece bathing suit nearly shot me over poorly sealed herring strips discovered in an onboard cooler. I have never been all that fond of the mess associated with running meat rig's, so we'll have to see.I had some discovered by the same kind of animal in one of mine too....only a week later!
