Kayak Trolling - Just Released

Kayak Trolling - Just Released - 05/20/15 06:48 PM

Nekid Tackle just released a trolling rig made of 30 or 45 lb Surflon. Great for trolling for Hybrid, Striper, White/Yellow Bass, and most other species. Pricing start at $3.00.

Inexpensive and great for people that can't hoist a RonRig, A-Rig, Umbrella or Ronbrella. Kayakers, Canoer's, Bass Buster style boats can use them too!!

Buy them in 2,3, or 4 oz, or a kit with all weights and a special clevis that lets you easily change weights on the fly.. They are 36" long.

I give up! Does the weight go onto your line and the lure snapped on after the float? Or the other way around?

The fishing line hooks to the swivel before the weight. Shad, live bait on a hook or your jig head connect behind the float on the snap. The weight will hold the line down, and the float will help your bait stay above the weight.

I had the same thought IslandJim .. wasn't sure which end was what smile


I never tried that before, I guess the float would also maybe keep you from hanging up a little if you run shallow.

Currently have a 12% promo code going for TFF members,
TFF12%OFF.

Robert, since you ordered the day before, I will either mail you a check, or take off the 12% from your next order. PM me and let me know.

I build tackle, and would like input from this group. If ya'll have ideas that benefit Kayakers, let me know. Since I build my tackle, I can easily make tackle to suit a Kayakers need. This rig is also a direct result from talking to a kayaker. Things like, leader to long, more weight etc.

Kinda like a Santee Cooper rig.

Similar, only it is suspended as you troll, and not on the ground as the Santee.
