    I tried the A Rig.

    For about 45 minutes, lost one and caught one. Lost both of my rigs to snags. I ordered 2 from TW just to see what all the fuss was about. In in 45 minutes I managed to lose somewhere about $50-60

    Did you catch a 50 pound limit on one cast?

    With some baits, copycats are less expensive but do not have the same action. With the mini umbrella rigs, they are all the same. The individual rigs other than being weighted or non weighted catch fish based on the baits attached to them. With that said, I wouldn't pay $25 for any of them when a $12-14 version is out there.

    What kind of line were you using? I use 65# braid with mine and haven't lost one yet, pulled it out of some serious snags.

    The original suggests 65 lb braid which I use.
    You can get a version here for 11$...

    Not even sure if we can throw one up here, but I do know I can't for sure till the ice is gone.

    I went to the Nashville fishing expo last weekend and every booth had them. Most were at $12-$14.

    Use mine at Falcon on Wednesday for the first time. Caught a 3.5 on my second cast. Probably hung it up 5 times in the next 15 minutes. Was able to save it on 65 braid. I think it would be a lot easier to use at lakes that had less trees.

    I think it wa s80lb braid was what was recomended........which I couldn't find and have used 65lb so far with about 15-20 hangups and 0 zero losses
