Easiest A-Rig DIY, Just for Crappie fishing, OR IS IT?  

A rigs catch fish for sure outlawed in BASS Tournaments. Made them myself I would like to give a few suggestions the blades you used are to big you can see in the under water video the have problems spinning, try using a plastic head don't bend wire at head they'll break there, but bend 1/2 inch away from head. I also would use different wire.

suggestion. try smile blades instead of those french blades, will cut weight and spin better I believe.

I've done a lot of powder painting for years but it was all wrong. I would shake up the powder and heat the lead over a flame. It worked but not as well. Old dog can learn new tricks! I've never used an A rig for crappy but I'll make some. Thanks for putting all the supplies in your store making them easy to find. I was a tournament bass angler for years to the point that it wasn't fun anymore. I still enjoyed fishing and remembered how much fun it was to crappy fish as a young guy. Chickamauga Lake was a untapped resource for a serious crappy angler in the 90s. The limit at the time was 30 each which was doable but I had a few days with over 100 keepers. The only way to keep up with the numbers was to keep a tatty counter in the boat. I didn't keep over 5 fish at a time 11" long for my wife and I to eat. They went from the filet board into the oil, It doesn't get any fresher than that.

I plan on making this but aimed at catching trout for our gulf trip to Texas, I know it will produce

Love this. Put a heavier jighead on the bottom wire and that helps prevent the A Rig from spinning in the water.

Awesome build never heard of a A rig before..looks really cool..🎣🍻

A stands for Amazing rig haha

I'm going to make on now !!!!Thanks !!!

WOW that looks awesome in the water, be cool with one longer wire through the centre and a larger paddle tail swimbait attached, making it look like its chasing the little baits. Pike would go bananas for yhat. Would sound like a bait ball in the water. Love it.

Nice job! Looks really good!

That's COOL...

Great build! I did not have "redneck manicure" on my bingo card for an EA video 😀

Always enjoy watching your videos and learning from them as well.

Great and fun build brah!! Merry Christmas.

Cool vid bud. If you put a 1/8oz on the bottom and 1/32oz jigs on the top it’ll keep it running true without rolling.

Thanks Franco, have a great Christmas!

I've never thrown an A-rig before, but after seeing your's, I'm going to soon. Another great video ++

Nice build/catch Merry Christmas 🎅 🎄

Great idea! A rigs are usually intimidating for a lot a people. This is more manageable. Happy holidays!

I never throw a-rigs but I have been thinking about it for a year. This scaled down version is exactly what I had in mind. I think strike king sells a small one. This looks great in the water. There's a reason they are banned in most tournaments. This rig has been popular in saltwater for years, mostly trolled on wire line for striped bass. My cousin does it a lot and I always thought it was just "TOO MUCH" . I prefer to keep it simple. I fish spinnerbaits a lot and have got quite a few good fish on them so this version appeals to me. Thanks for the video.

Wonderful! Make some more and put on christmas tree! :)

Fun stuff Franco, thanks for sharing! In a similar approach, I use large (3 to 6 foot) multi-spinner "gang trolls" that represent a school of baitfish when trolling for lake trout. Smaller (18 to 24 inch) gang-trolls work well for walleye with plenty of incidental catches of bass and pike. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Okay Google, what is the temperature outside? Google: Temperatures on Mars average about -81 degrees F. Okay Google, what is the temperature outside HERE.

great work - just wondering why the split ring on the blade ??

100👍

Seriously disappointed no crappie were caught.

It's a snagging machine.
