James RickardWeekend tip--Carolina rig
August 4th 2007 00:13
At first glance the Carolina rig looks like the Texas rig. However, upon closer inspection, you'll see they ARE different. A Texas rig, with its weight against the hook, is going to keep your bait/lure right on the bottom. A Carolina rig is going to let it float freely on the leader attached to the swivel. Although soft plastics , worms, crayfish, or lizards are usually used with this rig, some people prefer to use a floating minnow lure. Use a leader of about 18-36 inches between the hook and swivel and you'll never go wrong.
Until next time--watch yourself and watch your line!
