Well that was the only one I caught on the rigs. We're using all cranks now. Got 10 keepers so far.

Well I thought the Mississippi Rigs would do better than that. I think the fish were a little spooky today. Most everything we caught was 50 to 75 ft behind the boat. I did try a planer board and did okay with it. We wound up with 28 keepers in 5 hrs.

Good report Scott. I would have thought the Bama rig would have worked better at catching but it may do different on your next trip. Congrats on the catch.
I got some of the braid ordered we talked about from China, two weeks down and one to go on receiving it....

You could if you had a rig without the weight on it. Seems like somebody would make one with plastic instead of lead in the front. I tried longlining one and with 20 ft of line out it was hitting the bottom in 10 fow. I even thought about putting a cork on it to keep it from sinking so fast.
