BUYER'S GUIDE: UNIQUE A–RIGS, ALABAMA RIGS, RIGGING TRICKS, AND GEAR!

Today we're covering new innovations that completely change Alabama Rig Fishing! From lightweight rigs you can cast with BFS gear, to completely clear rigs, there are unique offerings in this category that will take the wariest Anti–Rig fisherman, and give them something to consider.

Alabama Rigs are an amazing tool to target big, lethargic fish. The way bass react to this schooling presentation is unlike any other lure. The downside of these rigs is how cumbersome they are to cast and retrieve! We've worked hard to develop rigs that are comfortable to fish, durable, and effective.

Below you'll find links to the exact rigs, baits, and components discussed in the video. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

A-Rig Tricks For Winter Bass: Full Rigging + Modifications (Beginner To Advanced)

The Alabama Rig is here to stay! Its ability to catch bass in Winter across all conditions is virtually unrivaled. If you're still not fishing one, you're making a mistake. If you are fishing one, you could probably be catching more fish with some simple adjustments. Here are the tricks we use to catch more fish on the A Rig throughout the cold water months. 

The A-Rig is unique amongst lures because it has to be assembled by the angler. This simple difference leaves room for error and even more room for fine tuning. Understanding how many baits you should use, which wire sizes work best, when to use blades, and when to try different baits, are all factors that can take you from catching the occasional fish to having incredible days on the water! Matt isn't holding back in today's video so pay close attention as he builds out a rig and gives up the details on how he catches fish. 

Below you'll find links to the exact rigs, components, baits, and gear that Matt discussed in the video. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item. We've also included some budget-minded alternatives to give a leg up to the anglers just getting started and for those that are on a budget.
