Not all good ideas work out ….

….all that great.  While I was in the Upper I had the neighbor test out my lil theory on an overlapping arm on perch rigs.  This is where I was rigging them up with 2.5 inch arm on the bottom, with the longer 4 inch version on top.  The theory was that the result would be having two hooks closer to the strike zone near the bottom of the lake.

Report was that more often than not the top snell got snagged up on the bottom arm.  So last night, it was tear up time.  Cut all the parts off and re-did them all with the 4 inch arms, which if you remember right are really called lears.  Both sizes are available at Jann’s Netcraft.

So last night I rigged up 20 double lear rigs, and another 10 or so with a single lear/arm.  Tonight will rig up some more singles, as well as snell some more hooks for my snells.
