    Just started using the Carolina keeper. Makes it so much easier then using a swivel. Thank you.

    Just getting into trout fishing, am I understanding right that the bait basically is suspended (it’s not floating on top of the water, right, because the egg weight is holding the leader down?)

    • @TroutMadeAnglerCo
      @TroutMadeAnglerCo  3 роки тому +2

      Hey thanks for getting MADE! Awesome you're trying trout out! Yes you are correct, the bait floats (can also use floating plastic baits like worms) and you set the leader length to the desired suspended height from the bottom! Thanks for watching!

    What’s up trout made!!! I gotta important question. So how come people use the sliding sinker and the carolina keeper and their hook. Then other anglers use the sinker the bead and the BARREL SWIVEL and then their hook? Do both methods work the same? Is it personal preference? The way you rigged your carolina rig seemed so simple! But then the other carolina rig seems more frustrating and complicated. Are they both called the carolina rig? Please let me know bro thanks 🔥🙌🏻🔥🙌🏻🔥🙌🏻🔥🙌🏻

    • @fishmore7957
      @fishmore7957 4 роки тому +2

      they work the same but if you use a barrel swivel and want to change the length of the leader you have to cut and re-tie, the keeper can just be slid up and down the line.

    • @TroutMadeAnglerCo
      @TroutMadeAnglerCo  3 роки тому +1

      Hey Adrian! I've been MIA lately LOL but coming back soon HARD! Get made!
      Thanks for the assist Fish More! Essentially it is the same, but different! HAHA So with bead and swivel, the bead reduces the impact from the weight on the swivel potentially spooking the trout. That's my logic. The keeper acts as the swivel and bead!
