Thanks for all the instruction and video.

Is this ballyhoo rig considered the Guatemala??

Can you leave out the weight and use it as a skip bait??

I had a hard time with my circle hook rigs spinning this year.

Got back from Isla about three weeks ago. I read this before I left and followed the instructions to a T. Last year my hookup was about 20% each day and after reading this I was up to around 50% by the end of the trip this year. Thanks alot for all the info.
