Alabama Rig Legal?

[gotmuddy]

right bite baits makes a alabama rig for $10. Gerrys quick stop in mtn home sells them. I hate to admit it but I am going to try it on the river.

Saw a guy in a white/red Ranger throwing the 5 bait A Rig around State Park area the other day. Some people are going to get in trouble with that this Spring.

I thought the same thing. This whole A-Rig craze should prove to be easy pickings for the authorities!

You can have 5 baits long as only 3 have hooks.

That's exactly where I thought it was going to get people in trouble. Putting baits with hooks on every arm.:-(

Bought a couple of A-rigs today for springtime. That was exactly what I was thinking was to put 5 grubs on and clip hooks on the top 2 grubs with the thinking the bass would be rising to bait and get the bottom ones.

Cheapest place to get them is Barlows tackle, you have to build them (bend the wire for the swivel,buy the swivel) but only $4.99 each or 10 for $39.00.

You can also pour them if you have some 40 wire (heavy spinnerbait diameter) and a spinnerbait mold. Made a bunch last night using the shad/minnow head Do-It mold in the 1/2oz size. Takes some work, but figure I saved myself about $150 and the kids were spellbound. Used three wires out the hook slot and a separate wire up fron, joined inside the head, then twist an eye as you would a trout spinner for a line tie.

Now if I can actually make myself throw it...

Good info snakem. Had a hard time making myself flip spoons in docks, and throw big swimbaits in that clear water too, but I got over it .
