But I also heard that there were others throwing it and didn't catch much. 2place...3rd place..they wen't throwing the rig...I've got one rig I've fixed up...it looks great..But I have to see it to believe it. Just chuck it out there and reel it in...they say.!?

I was just as big of a skeptic as you are, and it's understandable....However, after spending a week on KY Lake at the beginning of November, I now own 2 of them....On the 2nd day of our classic I threw my only A Rig off first thing in the morning and didn't have a backup....My partner proceeded to catch 30-40 fish that day and I never boated a single one.....I threw everything in the boat at them, including the exact swimbait he was throwing on his rig but as a single swimbait....Can you catch fish other ways, sure, but it definitly made a believer out of me
