  1. You can use a pre pegged board . Make a board with nails or something like that to attach your hook or lure to add a second nail for the swivel at a pre determined length attach both to the nails and go at it. Just like making a jig for carpentry . Very easy screw on a nail clipper or razor blade a bingo a tying board. By having a couple of nails or say eye hooks those twist in screws more pre set leader lengths can be very fast to tie. Or say a pieces 3/4" PVC pipe cut to 16" with a glued on cap and a removable cap can store leaders . 1 Then drill a hole in one end to attach the hook or lure 2 -attach 2 open end eye hook screws 12" part to attach the lure and swivel .Tying 1' -2' -3' ect leaders become easy as wrapping the leader around those eye hook screws and lure. You can probably add a razor blade inside the removable cap and by cutting the cap expose a mall section of it for cleaning the rigging up. Or a nail clipper or small scissor attached with velcro may hold up. Ya know what I'm going to do this because fishing on a kayak is all about organization . I pre cut all my leader to 3ft and store it in a ip lock bag but it's not that great.
  2. It's the new big thing for bass fishing. They are considering banning them in tournaments it's so effective. We used umbrella rigs for stripes and blue fish trolling in NJ NY waters. I now live in Florida were the Alabama Riggs are being used for redfish snook tarpon . I be fishing a night snook redfish kayak tournament and plan to try them pre fishing bridges and docks. One thing that concerns me is the wire legs can kink and break just fishing large mouth bass. Now a 3 pound snook would drown and 15 pound bass in a tugg of war contest. The Riggs can be expensive upwards od $25 for one bait snags are scary expensive. For tackle a heavy power med action inshore rod 7' to 8ft is a must with the rig weight. Think using a wide gap worm hook rigged weedless for swim baits will work nice without adding jig heads. The worm hooks will give the swim baits keel to swim upright without spinning. What's nice is they are shape shifting and endless rigging options. Seen guys on you tube building them on the cheap also. Would be great if it was sold for shallow water. We fish skinny water low tides if it was linear it would just slay reds trout snook flounder and pomps on the flats. Wow for not even using it yet I'm pump to throw it.
