Can you explain the use of 2 Split rings, when 1 will do? Split ring attached to lure then the swivel and then the siwash hook attached to swivel. Is there a specific reason/advantage? Thank you
We use a split ring between the two crane swivels to get the desired length for the hook to sit behind the hoochie. and then the top split ring in order to connect the rigged hoochie to the spinner. no exact advantage doing it this way. you could always use a bead chain swivel aswell to get the hook to sit far enough back instead. just the way we like to rig it up. Thanks hopefully this helps!
Vibrax lures are excellent on Kodiak, AK streams. Pretty cool. One question: why did you not put a split ring on the hoochie end of the Vibrax? Only seems logical to me and you don’t run the risk of having that eye open up when fighting a big Silver? Fish On!
This rig got me some nice coho, thank you!
Me too!
Me too,,,, several, Thanks!
Nice one Andrew. Gotta try that for Saskatchewan Pike!
Absolutely! Thanks for watching Randy
Why 2 split rings and 2 swivels? For the overall length?
I wonder how a weighted swivel would affect the action? There are times when I wish my spinner was a bit heavier
