Tidelands
 
I hit the water about 8am Sunday for a little spottie action with my buddy Ed. We started off right on the ledge near the bridge. I made quick work of the fish pulling in fish my first and third cast. The tide was nearly slack and the bass were chasing bait, so I threw on an umbrella rig and tore em' up. Every cast it seemed like I was either getting hit or pulling one in. I finally gave the bass a break once I launched my $30 rig a mile away down into the Green Bay waters! About 10:30 I picked up my son from the beach and threw him on the back of the PA. Peddled over to a spot were I knew we won hook up in secs. Dropped his rod down for him and then handed it to him after leaching it off. Within a min or two I heard yelling "it's Heavy, It's heavy!" And is drag was screaming ( I had it set loose). Grabbed the rod to set the hook and tighten the drag. The dumb leash got caught in the bell. It felt like a very nice fish and broke us off. A couple min later I hooked up on my rod in about 8' of water and got a solid hook set and let him reel her in. It was a good day on the water, caught 20+ fish, Ate at Joe's and watched the lil guy have fun.

I have seen some good youtube videos of making your own alabama rigs. I think they are way overpriced for what they are?

I use to fish them regularly on the east coast with surgical tubing over the hooks and it would probably work here too.

Did you get them online or at the store on Midway Drive?
