21xdc Posted September 22, 2014 Report Share Posted September 22, 2014 What purpose is the swivel you tie to? I use a Jika rig a lot and like less hardware personally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishhook Posted September 22, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2014 It is just one way of about 10 different types I make or use . I like to be able to change hooks and weight sizes if I need too as well . Plus make a rig for about 20 cents instead of 5 dollars lol........

21xdc Posted September 22, 2014 Report Share Posted September 22, 2014 You missed the question... Why the swivel? Why not tie to the hook snap? That's what I would do. Unless you have a reason for the swivel... That's why I asked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishhook Posted September 22, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2014 First of all it's easier to tie a line on . Some solid rings are rough in texture and do not tie well . Second I don't like split rings on a jika rig , split rings can stop some of the action . I like my jika rig to really be loose and free .

21xdc Posted September 22, 2014 Report Share Posted September 22, 2014 Have you considered the brand "Decoy" Egg Snap? One piece to have the loosest hook and weight, yet tie on good metal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
