Bored and thought I would post the difference of the two:

Santee Cooper



3-Way Rig

Those are some verry pretty rigs.wow and just look at the quality and perfection of those weights!!!!!!!!!!! I gotta know where i can get my hands on some of those???????

thanks alot chase guess i was mixed up. probably a brain faaart on my part. im old school trying some of the newer rigs.

I do my three way rig opposite yours, I put the hook on the long leader and the weight on the short. I do that when fishing for channel cats at Bridgeport.

Brother Terry showed me the SC rig today. I liked it.

nice...ordering some of those weights from you soon.

That's the good thing about the 3-way, you can rig it up all sorts of ways.

And ya can really see the offset in the hook in the first pic

Well dang, no wonder my 3 way rig always get wrapped up. I need to shorten the leader to the hook.

BTW what lb. line do you generally use on the 3 way rig?

chase4 u forgot to show the "stinkbait tom aka larry aka tiny tim " rig

I've always used the Carolina Rig.. what's the advantage in these rigs... keeps the bait a little off bottom ???

yup

Exactly, it keeps it off the bottom and sticks it up in their face. Cats aren't always hugging bottom so these rigs make it easy to adjust to diff depths that they are holding at

Thanks that's what I figured... my buddy has been using that Santee rig.. haven't seen much differance in our hook ups but we have been on dink fest the last few trips !... I guess the cork doesn't bother them.. just seems a little bulky to me but i'll give it a shot...

I'd like to know how to tie that knot you do on the hook. Thanks for posting the S.C. rig looks perfect for drifting. Just got my first kayak and now have to decide where to go. Going to travel light- Casting net, Bait bucket, Very small tackle box, Abu Garcia on a lightening rod with 15 pound Andie, Ice Chest for the keepers, gallon of Arizona green tea with ginseng and honey, trail mix, PFD, Paddle, Phone. Think I'll try Grapevine where Denton Creek come in,they might be packed in there like sardines after all this rain.

snell knot- chase4 had linked a video the other day but u can find several videos on You-Tube

there are many videos on snell knot on you-tube but for some reason I keep watching this one

YEA I DONT GET IT, BUT ITS "ATTRACTING"

Don't for get your whistle and your 360 light, man.

Hahahaha..She can tie my knot anytime. Had to catch my breath when she reached for the snippers..Hehe

Heres the one I like ,looks like a combination of your two. Everything falls to the bottom for casting then in the water the float lifts the bait up to your determined height.

that last one is the "Stinkbait Tom aka Larry aka Tiny" rig

From past experences I never use a snap swivel on anything I dont mind loosin (weights only)

Chase or anyone else,

What size floats do yall use on the Santee Driftin?

Also, does anyone use a float on their hook-line section of the 3 way rig?

yeah ... i do ... also i don't use a 3 way swivel ... i use a regular swivel & tie the main line & the leader to the top

for float size you can test it to see if it will float your hook & bait
