[cool][#0000ff]Why waste a perfectly good extra added attraction potential? I have been hanging a 1/4 oz. jig (plastic or feather) off a blood knot or small swivel above a floater-diver crankbait for years. This rig can be casted or trolled...to add weight to bet the lure down and also to act as a second offering. Sometimes the fish hit one...somethimes the other. Who cares?[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]In the attached pic you will also see a rig I have been using for good success on walleyes at Starvation Reservoir in Utah. The crank in the picture just doesn't quite get the depth needed in some areas so I thread the line through a painted spinner body, tie on a swivel and then add about a 4 foot leader. I have trolled these with success but where it really works well is on a long cast. Tight line it to the bottom and be alert for a "pop on the drop". Once it touches down you can bring it in with short pulls...to get the lure to dive and then float back up...or reel it in at whatever speed is necessary to keep it at the depth you want.[/#0000ff]
