A-Rig - Help/advice Needed On A Light & Inexpensive Rig

Featured Replies

I been wanting to get a rig, but want to wait till I get a heavy action rod, but can't wait any longer!

 

I've been fishing some multi bait rigs recently like the double fluke and the donkey rig.  I went out yesterday with a donkey rig baited with Super Fluke (White Ice) and caught several good fish.

 

The equipment I have to accommodate, hopefully, a light umbrella rig is a Veritas 7'6" MdHvy, BPS Pro Qualifier and 50# Power Pro.

 

I've seen several rigs at Academy that looked good, but want to get the forums opinion and advice on what will work for my setup. Mainly jig head weights, baits and maybe brands?  I'd like to go inexpensive if at all possible.

 

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Yumbrella Jr. for $10   http://www.academy.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_10051_736466_-1?kwid=ps_pla&mkid=PLA|023321037|YUM%20Yumbrella%20Jr%2e%20Baitfish%20Rig

 

I suggest rigging the outside arms with LFT Live Magic Shad weightless on light wire 3/0 offset worm hooks.

In the middle I use a Johnson Silver Minnow. The rig is light and VERY effective!

Yumbrella Rig Jr.  and Picasso School-e rig are two I'm using.  I use 3" Keitech Swing Impace Fat on 1/16 oz. Keitech ballhead jigs.  I also use the Buckeye J-Will jigs on heavier rigs.  Another combination that works well are 5" Kalin's grubs.

Simple, yet sounds effective, I'll have to give this one a try!
