If you get BM magazine they printed my "Bungee Jumper Rig"!
It's the "Bungee Jumper Rig" on pg.14 of the new May issue. They failed to list the various methods of use and where and how this technique works, but, it's a flipping technique that in some cases, works better than a 1oz bait because of it's slender/slim profile. It works great in thick Kissimmee grass when it grows long and lays over, making a thick heavy canopy where bass love to hide from the sun.
This technique works when conditions are tough. Use it in heavy cover, allowing the bait to fall to the bottom, let it set motionless for a few seconds before lifting several times. You can also shake it much like a shakey head, except you're making the tail section flicker. The biggest benefit I have found so far is that fish pick it up off bottom by the head first so hook sets are solid with a high ratio of hook sets.
Try this rig and let me know how you do with it!
Also, don't forget about the TNT Series for us Tracker/Nitro Owners!!!
