Weedless

[gooseman]

I was wondering if some of you garge tinckers had a solution to make a rooster tail weedless or at least not get snaged so easy on small things like grass.

Reel it faster over the cover is the only way to make a rooster tail more weedless that I know of.

I use some of my old guitar strings to make a Y shaped harness and glue it to the thread part of the it works for a little wile I do this to some of my treble hooks on cranks hope this helps

The absolute best way is to throw it into a fishes mouth each time you cast.
You need to be selective in where you use it. I only use mine over deepre water (10 feet to 20 feet) and then count it down to about half the distance to the bottom. If it gets snagged, it's in a fishes mouth..... ;D

thanks for the info. My dad always loses those hard to find one that you got to get a bass pro or that little tackle store 3 hours away.

What's up Gooseman:)?

One thing you may want to think about doing is replace the treble hook with a single hook. This will make the bait more weedless, but still allow for good hookups. Plus the single hook will rip out of the grass better.

And if you're losing a lot of them, you may want to get a lure retriever. Spinners are pretty cheap, but if you're always losing them; it adds up fast. A lure retriever will pay for it's self over time. They're a must have item in my opinion.

Take care and I hope this helps!
