what/how exactly do you mean by a tandem rig?

[DIRTY DOG]

Tandems rigs are run by tying a fly on first about 6 to 10 inches above a jig ,or a liter jig above a heavier one.

Very effective for picky fish.

Yep! Call me crazy but I have one spot that the gills are BIG. I regularly catch them on minnows so my "go to" rig is a Custom 27inch UL rod with an Okuma reel and some good 4lb test. Other end of that I put a real small treble hook with a minnow hooked through the eye and a small horizontal jig above that 8 inches. The minnow brings them in and they hit the jig, IMO. Watched a lot of fish on camera, you can learn so much about how the fish react to certain presentations.

Ill grab a few favorites and post 'em in a bit.
