Umbrella Rigs... - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

I saw a light castable model at the bass pro shops in November. It did look fishy. The big ol' heavy dredges they use for stripers on the east coast look like they'd be a PITA off a kayak. I have thought of using a heavier sinker on the bottom clip and lighter plastics above. They have some videos of guys fishing them on youtube that might be worth watching. Search "alabama rig". The Bubbas fishing them are entertaining. Mike
