Best answer is by Alex, put a Hitch Hiker on them and then place two additional swimbaits on. I personally use the big paddletail or curl tail swimming minnows. They have a Black Grey that is just the balm, I believe it is either 2.8 or 3 inch.

The Hiker is completely weightless, so it allows the weighted baits on the bottom to ride low and on the bottom, while the lite armed no weight dummy baits flutter in the school in a harmless manner. The Hiker is also very easy to change.

You can then hang your hooked weighted favorite 3 swimbaits what ever the case may be. And let me tell you, that is more than debatable, chosing your 3 hot baits.

I do the same thing with the screwlock hitch hikers. He said he doesn't have access to much really hence my cheapo solution of the coat hangers which should be available wherever he is staying.

Take the end of a coat hanger where it hangs up, place cut pbj zero on. Straighten it out and put in water. 1,000 fish 2 hours.

It ends up looking something like this only instead of piranha it's smallmouth:

This is my favorite rig its a bottom dragger the two bottom arms have 1/4oz cone sinkers and hitch hikers in the middle the top arms have hitch hikers in center and rigged hot with a 3/16th swim bait head. The center is also rigged hot. The one in pic has 3.3" keithechs in pro blue red shad color also the black shad color Bill mentioned I use it a lot too. If you here till Friday I can probably get one to you. I'm prefishing on Thurs in Kim city area. Oh yea it drags over submerged timber well too.
