Feathers and Fins Posted February 12, 2012 Posted February 12, 2012 So with it about to become time to start hitting Stripers hard on surface and sub-surface I decided to clean out my tackle boxes and re-arrange them ( specifically design one for the castable umbrella rig ) The bad thing is i was able to create a single box all for the A-rig which took all my soft plastic's and put them in one single tackle box. Which created much more space in my other boxes. I discovered I had a pretty tackle box with nothing left in it after re-arrangement. So off to Academy I went to buy stuff ( we all know you cant have an empty tackle box ) when i got home i found even after re-supply I still had two empty plastic box drawers left. So now its on to BP.com to get more stuff. This dam A-rig is going to cost me alot more than i would normally spend this time of year. Here is the best laugh for the day... While at Academy i hear over the PA ( GET THE HOTTEST BAIT TO COME ALONG FOR FISHING IN YEARS WE NOW CARRY THE A-RIG IN THE FISHING DEPARTMENT GET THEM WHILE YOU CAN ) My wife looked at me and said "do you need some of those" I just looked back and said the ones i have have cost us this trip but ill gladly go get more if you want me to! Err you married guys know the look i got when i said that i bet. https://www.facebook.com/pages/Beaver-Lake-Arkansas-Fishing-Report/745541178798856

Feathers and Fins Posted February 12, 2012 Author Posted February 12, 2012 Snake, Mine doesnt care much about fishing. But pulling her away from the gun counter is always fun, she loves to hunt and shoot so I just planted her there while i shopped. Den, 14.99 while supplies lasted lol... The sales man told me i needed to try them they were great I said I already had and pulled out the cell with a pick of the other night. He went and grabbed 3 lol.. I think i needed a commission for that. https://www.facebook.com/pages/Beaver-Lake-Arkansas-Fishing-Report/745541178798856
rps Posted February 13, 2012 Posted February 13, 2012 I'm sorry guys. I do NOT need a reason to add another rod and reel. Believe me, an A rig would destroy me or my rod/reel if I tried to fish it on the gear I have now. I do not flip. I do not swim bait. I do not striper fish. I enjoy fishing jigs less than 1/2 ounce. It may be the best thing since sliced bread, but this too shall pass. Does anyone remember the River Runt or the Cisco Kid?
Iclass Posted February 13, 2012 Posted February 13, 2012 Thought about selling all my other gear and be exclusive to the rig... Think I'll come out cheaper and catch more fish
Members Hook Line and Sinker Posted February 13, 2012 Members Posted February 13, 2012 Hey Fellas! Just wanted to let you know that Hook Line and Sinker in Rogers/Bentonville has all the goods for the A rig. We have a variety of A rigs, swimbaits, and jigheads all in stock. Good Fishing!
Evolution Posted February 13, 2012 Posted February 13, 2012 With all the hype going on with this "rig", might just pick one up and cast it into boils and see what happens.
miket Posted February 13, 2012 Posted February 13, 2012 I can save you some money on those a rigs.... www.jigs4bass.com Thanks....Mike

I wonder how the A-rig would work with 5 River Runts?
