[@handy-capoutdoors4063]

Hi, so quick question. Maybe a video answer. What is the difference between bouncing weights/rigs and these drifting/slinky rigs? From what I can tell they are basically the same functionality but they are made very different. The bouncing weight is a stiff wire in a L shape similar to a large spinner lure but there is no hook. The weight is up high on the long wire and the short wire has a loop for the float and bait. How are they different? In use and form.

[@FishinNStuff]

They are similar, I know a guy that uses this type trolling for catfish . I made some similar to what your talking about on a hack video i did

[@russellstewart5414]

I use these instead of dragging weights and so far so good. Had a bunch from the old walleye days, a good way to use tackle that hasn’t seen water in about 20 years. We mostly catch channel cats and they work . Will need the do some comparison in a side by side to get a better understanding

[@russellstewart5414]

PS our lake doesn’t have blue cats

[@kencleg7721]

The history goes back to ol river rig or surf rig wieght on the bottom

[@scoobyduo2107]

I'm getting away from lead weights I pick up rocks with holes in them at the river then I run a piece of line through it tie it off and I put it on myself

[@FishinNStuff]

That's cool . I've got 2 of 3 virus about lead alternative weight . One of the has rock and steel and all sorts of stuff the other is stuff you can pour like bismuth

[@hubertcornett7]

it is also worth remembering that salt water carries weight higher than fresh water. you therefore need to spend more weight on the ocean than on the lake.

[@FishinNStuff]

That's true

[@davidkinney7638]

Who in the world would give this vid a thumbs down ?

[@jasonbroom7147]

Walleye fisherman have been using this type of bait for dragging a "Lindy Rig" since the 1950's, at the very least. I came here to be entertained and I got schooled!

[@laurenprincehouse]

Got these thinking they were the slightly larger Panfish floats kzbin.infoUgkx_rJB7cli5f1ofPVGgn80S7Yj4vqwq0gU they work just fine. The smaller size lets me carry more in my tackle box, and the 3 color choices are nice for different lighting conditions, backgrounds, etc. They aren't the most durable things in the world. But, as cheap as they are, it's not heartbreaking to lose one or have to replace a worn one. The price on these fluctuates wildly, from about $9 to almost $16. So, time your buy accordingly.

[@JerrelBaker-vo8xv]

What about the bait taking some of the weight of peck float?

[@oncomics1128]

Are there special tricks to casting drifting weights without tangling up your peg float rig?

[@FishinNStuff]

I just cast em regular . But alot of the time I don't cast at all . Because I'm dragging I just do it in the water , turn on the trolling motor and run some line out . I only use em trolling any ways
