Dropper chains and hooks.
« on: Dec 19, 2018, 09:47 AM »
I'm interested in using jigging spoons with dropper chains,mostly for crappie,perch and gills.What are your thoughts on single hook vs treble hook? Also beaded chain vs plain chain ? Thanks for any input.

Dropper chains with single hook or about 3" mono stinger with quick clip and a #12 treble, both work well. I use the mono stingers more as I can clip them on and off pretty easy.

i just put some drop chains on kastmasters and swedish pimples. they always seem to work great. SHARK, one of the sponsors on here sells the chains single and treble and some with epoxy heads.

Single hook for dropper is what I use

Get extra chains, I break at least one a season.

I tried mono but I didnt like it. The action didnt look good at all.
