May be of interest to some; used Sabiki Rigged Crappie Jigs and a Slab for White Bass yesterday. Here is an online article that shows how we made it - Sabiki Rig for White Bass.

did that in '07.
had a limit in 5 drops

6 flopping sandies at a time on tiny hooks is interesting to say the least

Cool lite-liner!

Looks like the Sabiki Rig for White Bass works from shore, too! One mod though,... had to remove the Slab and replace it with a lead weight to get longer casts.

Great time catching and releasing White Bass. Also, caught a couple of Yellow Bass, a Bass and a Catfish that decided went for the Crappie Jigs! Overall low boating traffic - only had to deal with one boat, one jet ski, and two kayaks that passed over the schools of fish lingering off the point. No worries..., fish stayed in the area!

Fun stuff! Today's Video.

my son does this with the larger sabiki rigs we bring back from the coast. They always have a contest as to who can catch the most at one time! You can get a sabiki rod that makes it easier to store the rig without having to cut it off, but they are not very good for casting, it's like using a broom stick.

Cool ddmm!

Working on the video; likely post tomorrow. Fished Tickey Creek (Lake Lavon) using Frito Fishing Flies on a Sabiki Rig. Worked well until we lost the rig when we snapped the line on a bad cast. Today's Post.

Video of the action from yesterday. Really liking the simple fishing flies that work great on the Sabiki Rig for White Bass!

Going to tie more since (as Murphy's Law has it) we lost the only rig we had. No problem, simple and easy pattern. Should be able to restock the tackle box shortly! Yesterday's Video

Short video this round... Late start and then a dirty lens made us opt for editing out the onesie/twosie hook ups and show mainly the three and four fish hook ups.

The Frito Fishing Fly worked well with lots of hook ups and like yesterday, lots of undersized White Bass with exception of one Keeper.Today's Video

Thinking about shifting to the Frito Fishing Fly over the Crappie Jigs for the Sabiki Rig. Just in case, did pick up more Crappie Jigs just in case!

Sabiki Rig for White Bass worked again; used it Kayak Trolling... did get a Yellow Bass and a 15" White Bass to put on the stringer. Today's Video.

More Kayak Trolling... with the Sabiki Rig for White Bass!

Caught more undersized White Bass this way. However, we did get one Keeper and a Catfish that went for the Slab! Fun stuff and a great workout, too!
Today's Video.
