Just looks like an over-complicated dropshot. We all know that dropshotting doesn't work, so don't waste your time with it :)

Dez, you're dangerous enough casting a standard rig, can't imagine the damage you might do when you start flinging a 1oz weight attached to a bungie cord!!!!!!

im thinking it would be killer for bed fishing !!

also this is rig comes in all weight sizes .. or you can purchase the kit .. or purchase each of the components separately .. the bungie cord is the most appealing part IMO ...

I gave this rig a shot a few years ago before the company was bought up by the new owners. It wasn't really for me, but then again, I honestly didn't give it as good as shot as I probably should have. I know some guys that swear by that rig. It looks like it could be pretty deadly on bedding fish. Give it a shot Dez, and let us know how it does.

I would buy 50 of each size, you wouldn't want to be stuck without an extra or two.

The biggest problem I see with the rig is the junk sinker...Ha Ha!

As far as bedding bass, a regular dropshot rig is killer without the bungie. If the bungie places your bait too high off the bottom, then I doubt it would be as effective as you imagine, however until you try it you just won't know!

ciao,

I would think that with a weight that heavy its gonna be pretty tough to land it near a bed without a huge kerplunk.
