"How-To" Rigging Swim Baits for Butts, Ling Cod & Sea Bass

[@2600mx]

Good tips! Super Glue and Magic thread are good "investment" :)

I bet some thin zip ties would work great too for the swimbait repair.

Thank you for a great tutorial. BTW what kind of super glue you're using.

I am going bottom fishing off newport oregon. Boat Drift fishing. On the inshore reefs .not a charter boat . May 13 2022 I got 1/4 oz buck tail jigs I got 7" paddle tail shad jigs. I purchased 3/4 oz. Round head big eye jig heads. Now I am. Afraid I got the weight to small. Can I just add some egg weights to get down deeper if needed what do you recomend. Do I need to go buy bigger weighted jig heads. For the 7" paddle tails? Based on the currents there what do you think? I am running 30 lbs mono main line with 30 lbs leader. One p line squid set up I purchased has 50 lbs leader.

this is sponsored by Macks lures but they do not sell saltwater lures unless they have a different site. do you have some links to the lures you are talking about?

[@FishHuntNorthwest]

William, all our Bait Lab content is sponsored by Mack's Lure, however, some of the content is not specific to what they actually manufacture and sell. That being said, they pay for the mention on our How-To topics. Hope that makes sense.
