A Carolina rig is very similar if you don’t utilize a swivel and beads. You could definitely use a Carolina rig with these baits. I like the Drop shot weight as I can quickly change the leader and if I want to change to a free rig I can bend the top part as I showed in the video
This is not special as we used a Split Shot rig using a round # 3 or 4 Split Shot 18 to 24" above your hook...............4 to 8lbs Mono or Fluorocarbon, #4 or #6 circle or wire worm hook.........................Fishing 4" Handpours or Reapers only,,,,,,,,,,Anything else will cause line twist..........................This has been a standard rig in Socal for the past 40+ years...............................Fish it uphill or in flats!
Very nice. I like the drop shot weight it’s easier to move depending on what cover I’m fishing. I don’t get line twist with any of the baits I mentioned.
@@addicted_to_fishing Then you are not experience enough on this technique. Any Boot or Curley tail will twist the line.....Especially on long casts..........
I have been fishing for over 40 years and used this technique for 3. I don’t get line twist. Curly tails I’ve fished for decades without line twist. I fished the st.lawrence river since 1982 for big small mouths. Not only long cast but deep water. Never line twist.
It's no different then a Carolina rig without sliding weight. When I first started fishing I used clam style weights and a live worm.

I was thinking the same thing...I have fished split-shot rigs since the late 80's. :)

I fishes the spilt shot rig, just prefer this as I don’t kink the line and can move the length quickly.
