Telling you how to fish a carolina-rig is made simple by giving you the basics starting with the size rod should be 7 to 7 1/2
feet long heavy action with moderate tip. You should equip it with a 6-1 gear ratio reel, with a very good drag system.
The line I normally use is 17 Lbs test monofilament on my main line some use 20, or even braided line and on the attached line
I go done to 12 Lbs florocarbon. This way I can get the distance on the cast but at the same time I get a rugget combination to
accompany a variety of lures.
I take the main line place two glass, beads on then place a one once egg sinker, then place two more glass beads, now it time to
place a swivel at that time you tie a 18" flouracarbon line to swivel then hook to fit the size plastics your fishing with.
plastics your fishing with.
How to fish a carolina-rig in the winter time I use the same combination of rods and reels as I would in the summer time fishing
grass and flats, the only difference would be the lure of choice, in the winter I would prefer to use a senko or a 7 inch worm but
have been know to even put a fluke on the other end when fishing under water grass.
Also I have been know to fish a mini carolina rig on spinning tackle in the shallows of spring and early morning in the summer time
on the edge of lilly pads if fish short strike top water baits. I use 12 pound test on main line with 10 pound fluorocarbon.
Try using these rigs more often and you will be surprised at your results, I use this as my go to method when times are tough or
I am fishing in bad weater slow it down and sweep the rod and do not lift because you want the bait to crawl not hope in the winter
time.
in the summer time I use a 4 inch french
fry or a creature bait.
