They’re cool looking for sure!

Dropper loop rigs are amazing for the micros; it’s basically like a single hook version of a sabiki rig. Love using mosquito hooks(I find them mostly at bass pro) for the rig in sizes 14 through 8

Fun fact, I actually didn’t know how to tie a dropper loop rig until I took the time to learn it in preparation for this trip! Unfortunately I wasn’t able to get the tiny hooks onto the loops with 12lb mono being a little too thick. I thought about attaching them to the loops with snap swivels, but I didn’t have enough of them. I will be more prepared next time!

How the hell did you get such good weather? I just went there on the 13th and it was like 4-5 foot waves the whole time

I’m not sure myself! I thought the conditions were pretty bad when we were there. Super windy and red flag conditions 4 out of the 6 days we were down for. We left on the 12th and you could tell a big storm was coming.
