    Nice vid Boxman. Question, what do you use for the last bait? A weighted flyer, or a different lure? I'm assuming the last bait is rigged in-line, not dropper.

    Timing is everything. Yesterday I got some little flyers and was sitting looking at them thinking how the hell am I going to rig those. Then today I see this awesome video. Thanks for taking the time to put this out. It just made my life a whole lot easier.

    GOOD QUESTION 92'.......ME BEING THE SIMPLE MATE...IT WILL BE EITHER A NAKED BALLY...MAYBE EVEN SPLIT BILL.....MAYBE A SMALL NATURAL SQUID NO SKIRT...OR MY OLD STAND BY A 3/8 SEA WITCH BALLY BLUE/CRYSTAL HAIR....

    THEN JUST BARELY INSIDE THE WING SPAN OF THE LAST FLYER ON THIS CHAIN I WILL CRIMP A SMALL BALL BEARING BARREL SWIVEL AND THEN CRIMP ON A SHOT OF FLUORO 90# LEADER APPX 6 FT WITH THE BAIT....

    THIS RIG GETS HIT A LOT AND THE LIFE EXPECTANCY IS SHORT OF THE CHAIN ITSELF....IS....WELL....NOT EXACTLY GOOD IN CAROLINA TOOTHY WATERS

    Great video BOX!! I think your way of rigging it is much better then the way I use to do it.

    Those flying fish chains have definitly seen some action on the RUN-OFF before.
    As a matter of fact, I think THE BEAST has seen a blister or 2 on his thumbs from the teaser reels when the Yellowbellys came piling in on it.

    Very Cool!!! I like how you crimped the loop and tied the floss to hold the plastic bait in place. Thanks for taking the time to share your tricks.
