New Ballyhoo Rig


Recommended Posts

Nice rig Red that is a great mooching rig as we call them on the left coast :605_thumbs_up::239_fishing::1992_beer_cheer:

Well .. I guess I'm making mooching rigs, I've always called'em stinger rigs.

I have some titanium wire left over from my king tourney days .. making a few from it.

Nice. I'm heading south to Baja for the first time this summer. Would you mind a few basic questions? What type of connection is under the shrink wrap? Is that a haywire twist with shrink wrap or some very small crimps? I use crimps for our halibut gear up here but nothing ever done with wire, with the exception of an ill fated attempt to catch pike on a fly. That was the only time I've done a haywire.

If we are lucky we might stumble into a woo, so I'm interested in different ways to rig wire.

That one's two very small crimps, I don't use shrink wrap when I haywire twist.

When using small 49 strand wire I like to double twist in the bite area for more strength.
