Congrats Todd! Looks like you're figuring those pomps out. Nice fish. Kylemac, 2000 Flushes: I start by tying a small barrel swivel(not shiny) to 3 ft or so of flourocarbon. 8-10 inches down from the swivel I tie a dropper loop, and a second dropper loop 1-1.5 ft down from the first loop. At the bottom of the rig attach the weight via a snap swivel or tied directly to the line. It's kinda hard to describe the dropper loop. I'd ask the guys at any of the local tackle shops to see if they'd show you. If not, Vic Dunaway's "Baits, Rigs, and Tackle" was a bible for me growing up. Good luck.

I make my entire rig from mono; just heavier for the leader and lighter line for the droppers.



Maybe, I'll try flouro just for drill. I do try new things.



I've always painted my weights and am not shy about replacing the weight with a jig.



I fish with the long rod so I can fish both long and short as necessarily. I catch sharks, Pompano, redfish and cobia on the second bar. Don't go light out there. Use enough rod!



J Purdy has been reading my notes? lol! I learned from the best. Spent a lotof hours staring at the water. C2

Great advice!



From last years experience alone I now will always have one rod rigged with the goddy Walmart double drop leaders with all of the extra flash and beads. You just never know what the fish are going to bit. I had both out a few times last year and the Pomps hit the Walmart rig on some days but didn't touch the clean flouro rig. And vice versus. So I figure it doesn't hurt to have both.



Should be nice this weekend, hopefully we will see some good reports.
