Easy A-rig No Mold Mod But It Ain't Pretty

[ROWINGADUBAY]

I was looking at my jig and spinner bait mold wondering wich one to modify to make an A-rig when my 1/4 egg sinker mold caught my eye

so I tried it out. I can fit 5 .030 stainless wires in one end with the center one sticking out the other side( in place of the center hole rod) of course I put a small 90 degree bend on the ends and gave it a pour with lead and it worked Great!!!! wish I could post a pic although it aint pretty to look at. I just want to test the rig on my home waters this spring and I am sure there are alot of people on here that would like to try this rig and this is an easy way to make one quickly.

Hope this helps some of you !!!

Has anyone compared the lead head versions to the epoxy types is there any benefit to either one?

It would be nice to see it after the testing process is through. As far as the lead versus the epoxy, about the only benefit would be if the epoxy heads are lighter . I think now that they are banned from the Classice and the Elite series competition, you'll notice the poplularity on these go way down. Here in PA you wouldn't even know the "A-rig" was a big deal but that is more due to laws than anything else as the rig is illegal here.
