Wow, I love the idea of cutting one of the dropper loop lines. Thanks for sharing

Thanks Steve!

Feel free to post follow-up questions.

How about using a three way swivel, which may help prevent your line tangle droppind down and give the bait better freedom of movement? You also could use a ligher line for your dropper weight.

The majority of 3-way swivels that you see in stores are not nearly strong enough. Some very high quality [and higher cost] units do indeed work well.

Which carnage rod do you recommend?

The model in the video is from the Penn Carnage III "West Coast" series. It is the CARWCIII60100C70, a 7-footer, rated for 60-100 pound lines, though same anglers opt for the heavier model rated for 80-130 pound lines.
