BPS has a $15 version that is fine. I rig it with LFT Live Magic Shad on the outside arms,
4/0 Offset Worm hooks (thin wire) and weightless. I use a 1/2 oz Johnson Silver Spoon
on the middle arm. Here are some pics from a trip earlier this year:

Let's try this again: http://www.bassresou...ick-is-on-fire/

The Yumbrella is fine, it just costs a little more, $18 I think.

That ABT Multi-Rig is also very light. I like mine because its hollow and has a bigger surface area and when I attach a swimbait tail to the back of the head it gives it even more lift.

I just bought the Yum Double Up but haven't used it yet...it's my first A-Rig. I may try it with the Huddleston shad but thinking the swimming fluke will be a good bait. Any other suggestions?

Also, Yum has the one with the willow blades attached that looks amazing.....My question is this, is this rig an all year round bait? I'd like to throw it all summer and give it a chance...if so, where, around docks, points, parallel to rip rap banks?

Yep that Yum Flash Mob should work when they want more flash. It looks almost like a Swim-N-Frenzy knock-off. I just add the spinner blade wire accessory arms to my ABT when I want more flash and lift without having to buy a whole new rig. This one is my favorite right now on Shasta for big Spotties...

Check out the Paycheck Baits Donkey Thrasher - it sounds like it may be what you're looking for.

Boss makes an all wire rig that's $8.99. I have two of these, one is the compact rig. I've never had any trouble with them.
You can get them at TW...apperently the links are blocked

Picasso makes a light resin head umbrella rig with quality swivels. I have mine rigged with Keitech Swing Impacts and 1/8 oz. jigheads:



it doesn't work on Oneida, though. Heh.

[J Francho]

I was kidding.....

[telmomarques]

i know

btw what size keitech u using, i am thinking about using 2.8 and 3.8

[J Francho]

I think those are the 3.8 regular Swing Impacts. I initially bought them to try on a drop shot, but they work well on that rig.
