Are you finding that you spend too much time rigging and not enough actually fishing? Deneki Outdoors has 9 tips for quicker ways to switch between different rigs, flies, and tactics.
- Pre-Rig. One of the best ways to make efficient rig changes is by rigging up a bunch of spare rigs ahead of time, especially if the rigs require more than one step.
- Loop to Loop Connections. A loop to loop connection at about 18 inches above the fly can make for easy rig swaps.
- Hang Your Shot Above a Knot. Every time you have to slide a shot back into position, crimp on tighter, or replace because it came loose, is more time spent not fishing. So, always hang your shot above a knot. The shot remains on the leader after a breakoff, won’t slide down the leader, or need to be tightened.
- Adjustable Indicators.
- The Double Surgeon’s Knot. The double surgeon’s knot is nearly as strong and far simpler to tie than the blood knot. It's a great option in low light with tough visibility. Here’s how to tie it.
- Quick Change Sink Tips.
- Tie Your Flies With Depth in Mind.
- Tippet Rings and Micro Swivels.
- Practice Your Knots. Knot tying is a skill.
