Something unusual that you do

[DJD]

Name an unusual method or way that you fish that works for you:

I throw a lot of what I call a "mini rig". Think typical Carolina rig, but all greatly downsized for more finesse.

1/4 to 1/2 oz egg sinker, two clear beads, lighter weight line and smaller baits. My leader is usally only 12-15" long. I use tubes, trick worms, 5 inch worms, baby brush hogs, etc. I also use this rig to throw flukes on the deep end of rocks or weed lines.

I've had great days of fishing using the mini rig. Most people laugh when they first see it, but I usually get the last laugh!!

I do the same. I never toss anything over 1/2 oz when rigging. When tossing a real light weight I use the Carolina Keeper and no swivel. The plastic is tight enough on my line to hold a light weight in place and I usually use a spinning rod with that setup.
