"The Atom Rig" |
"The Micro Rig" |
The "Atom" and "Micro" rigs make two fine additions to your trolling situations. Designed solely as teasers with a single hooked per rig, these little guy's have turned a lot of heads in recent years.
The "Atom Rig" utilizes two stainless steel wires (.062 dia.) to form the arms. Line attachment is done with two eye inserts inline with the center of the rig. Weight of the lead formed around the rig is approximately 3/8's of an ounce. The "Atom" rig is unique in the fact that it can be used a high speed trolling rig or, as a live bait presenter.
The "Micro" rig is the next size up from the "Atom" rig. The formed lead around the wires is a little closer to 1-ounce. Used in much the same way as the "Atom", the "Micro" will get you that little extra depth needed when the fish are holding slightly deeper. The "Micro" is available with the single looped small and double looped medium arms.
Both rigs work extremely well as precise depth controllers off from downriggers. Targeted species for these rigs include; stripers, hybrid stripers, small and largemouth bass, walleye, white bass, spotted bass, northern pike, muskie, salmon, trout and a multitude of saltwater species.
