Pretty austere 4 arm arig. I guess that’s the point just reading their description. Shouldn’t be that hard to duplicate. Not crazy about how this ones put together, though.

What do you like about it that other rigs don’t do? There’s a guy in murray that makes the best rigs I’ve ever used. I used the same one for 3 years before finally losing it. Boat swung multiple fish over 5lb up to 7lb

I Make them very similar to that. But I don’t sell them

Mike would you be willing to PM me the material and tools i would need to make them

This guy custom makes my wire to whatever length and diameter I want. I have him make me Camo SS... I have him bend/twist the eyelets on the ends and I bend the middle into an "R" bend... Then I put two together and wrap 20 gauge copper wire around under the r bend about 10 times. Then I solder the wire. Then bend open the wires to my needs. I add a large split ring in front and snap swivels on the bait ends.

So if you want 9in arms, Have him make you 18in wires with closed ends. You bend the middle... If you want a long tag wire, I have him make me some 20-22in as well... The bend the 22 in wire at 9in and this leaves you a longer one behind. I hope you understand.

I guess it’s preference, but I prefer a head you can dress up. Closed loops with the swivels in the loops. Cleaner and stronger. If you want it austere, paint the head black and leave the spinners off.

You can put a tube over the front if you want on my home made. I dont want any extra lead on the front, Nor do I want resin holding it together... That is my preference. I like to be able to boat flip multiple 4-5lb fish if need be.
