GUACOMOLE RIG UPDATE.....VID

[WAHOONBOX]

AS YOU KNOW I WILL TRY ANYTHING ONCE. IF IT'S SIMPLE AND IT WORKS.....THAT BE MOI....................

WHEN I AM RIGGING MY MEDIUM BALLYHOO GUACOMOLE STYLE.........I TEND TO USE THE "SMALLER" MEDIUMS............THE SHORTER THE LENGTH THE BETTER!!!!

BUT WHAT DO I DO WITH THE "LARGER" MEDIUM 'HOOS? YOU KNOW THE ONES THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN PACKAGED IN THE "LARGE" LOT OF BALLYS......

WELL I DECIDED TO ENLARGE THE EGG SINKER.........I INCREASED IT'S WEIGHT FROM A ONE HALF OZ EGG ...UP TO A ONE & ONE-HALF OZ EGG..........

I ALSO RE-POSITIONED THE ROSCOE 30LB BARREL SWIVEL APPX 1/8TH OF AN INCH ...MOVING IT TOWRDS TAIL

RESULTS: FRIGGING UNBELIEVABLE DIVING ACTION! WITH EYES WIDE OPEN , I WAS IN DISBELIEF!!! THE NEW SHIMANO TALLUS DINK ROD WAS BENT OVER UNDER PRESSURE WHILE TROLLING IN THE FLATLINE ZONE AND THE BAIT ......NEVER...... SURFACED ONCE WITH INCREDIBLE SWIMMING ACTION!!

THERE ARE SO MANY WAYS TO MODIFY THIS RIF THAT WAS STARTED BY THE CHARTER FLEET IN GUATAMALA................IT TAKES SOME TWEEKING AND PRACTICE.................OUR WHITE MARLIN MONDAY CAME OF A VERSION OF THE ABOVE

I WILL RE-POST MY EARLIER MADE VIDEO OF RIGGING THIS WITH A CIRCLE HOOK

Great video Marty! Thanks for taking the time to make that one. I can't wait to try it out.

[Big Jay]

I have got to say...that was very cool.

Whats great is like he said, rig a ton, and they can be switched in a matter of seconds.

[Tuna Taxi]

One question Marty. When you get a fish or lose a bait, do you just drop another on the same hook and start a "charm bracelet" of spro swivels from the other hoos, or do you cut the hook off & crimp/tie another before attaching the new Guac?

Thanks buddy.

[swancaller]

Thanks for the information Marty

[Glenn W]

Bill, it's quicker and easier to cut and tie on a new hook, if the swivel fits just right, it is a pain to remove the hook from the swivel but can be done with a turn and twist I can't explain.

WELL IT WAS MY TURN TODAY TO LEARN................YOU ALL ARE AWARE OF MY BUDDY JAKE, OVERBOARD ....WHO TOOK MY FISHING SCHOOL OVER A YEAR AGO..........

HE HAS PROGRESSED SO IN BECOMING A FINE OFFSHORE MATE ........NOT TO SOUND CORNY BUT I AM VERY PROUD OF HIM.........WELL HE JUST CO-MATED WITH ME AND BRIAN AND PERFORMED SUPERBLY IN HIS FIRST BLUE MARLIN TOURNY..........I TIP MY RIGGERS SIR!!!


WELL TODAY AFTER THE TOURNAMENT ENDED.........HE CAME TO ME WITH HIS "NEW" APPROACH TO THE PLACEMENT OF THE 1/2 OZ EGG SINKER............

MY JAW DROPPED..........IT WAS SO SIMPLE AND YOU ALL KNOW I DO LOVE SIMPLE!!! HE REVERSED THE DIRECTION IN WHICH THE WIRE ENTERS THE EGG SINKER (WITH THE EGG IN PLACE)............THIS ELIMINATES ONE FROM WRAPPING THE MONEL AROUND THE HOOS BODY BEHIND THE GILL PLATE!

I WILL DO A VIDEO AS SOON AS HE RETURNS FROM VACATION...........AND WILL LET SHOW YOU HIS TECHNIQUE

WAHOONBOX.......an old mate still learns
