fisherwoman Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 c-rig is a very simple yet complicated method of fishing i recomend using lighter weight (1/2 oz ) with the 4" centipede at 4-8 feet and 3/4 to 1 oz for 10-16 feet with a trick worm i dont fish much deeper than that the lake i fish is shallow only about 20-25 feet hope this helps good luck fisherwoman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick B Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 I like to fish C-rig almost year round, I like to use it a search tool. I rig it up with 2 beads adds a little extra clicking, I also like to use a slinky weight when fishing lakes with lots of hang-ups on the bottom. I prefer to use the strike king 3x plastics because they float. I began using the C-rig while fishing the shallower lakes in Ga, but have learned to use in the lakes here in Ar to fish much deeper. Its a very versitile rig. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Super User iceintheveins Posted April 29, 2010 Super User Share Posted April 29, 2010 How exactly do you guys set the hook with a sweeping motion? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweetwater Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 How exactly do you guys set the hook with a sweeping motion? Everyone is different, but I reel down till my rod tip is pointing at the line, then snap the rodtip sharply straight up. Sharp hooks are crucial.

kikstand454 Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 just sweep your rod to the left or right.... kinda like you hook up on a crank bait. pulling straight up brings the heavy sinker into play and may encourage a fish to drop your bait. or worse... the weight suddenly jumping up may pull out out of their mouth. sweeping the hookset is under the idea that you are setting the hook "through" the weight.... taking it out of the equation. i probably throw a c-rig more than anything. it rocks.

Super User burleytog Posted April 30, 2010 Super User Share Posted April 30, 2010 How exactly do you guys set the hook with a sweeping motion? Just sweep the rod to the side. If the rod is at 11, 12 or 1, just sweep the rod horizontally to set the hook. When C-rigging, I always keep the rod perpendicular to my belt buckle.
