Anyone have advice on adding swivels to non swivel hook hangers? Thanks!

Looking for info or recommendations on how to add weight to triple trouts for presentations in deep water. This will be primarily salt water use, with the stubby and 7” 3/4 size TTS for the salt. The idea is getting the bait down into 60’+ Then slow rolling it returning it. looking for directions on where to place weight, how much, and other tips to not affect the swim. Thanks!

Does anyone have experience without having a proof of purchase?

Looking for ideas on a cheaper DIY storage idea or item that works for 5”-8” baits. Essentially like a roll or something that can go in my back pack next to my boxes when I fish saltwater. Thanks!

Fishing in tight on the boilers with the salt triple trout has produced frequently for me. A well placed cast can result in a nice fish. I am Enjoying learning the 7” TT for these fish, finding that they really eat it in ambush, and not as willingly suspended in open water (unless going completely dumb). My best success has come around heavy cover, no surprise, or up over those shelves with eel grass inside fingers. The 5” salt stubby has produced plenty of fish suspended and feeding in 60’ of water, even burning it on the surface. I know from diving and observing these fish that the bigger model fish stay close to their caves etc, so drawing them up and out has to be worth their time when speaking in calories. Hence the 7”. Still have not got one on a slow sink (dead stick), as I don’t rightly know how to do that yet. Not much for fresh water so this is still a learning curve for me. Submit any experience or input if you feel inclined.

Shoot I thought I did! That was my whole point in posting. I wanted to see the discussion take off.

If you haven’t already, follow @saltwaterswimbaits on instagram. They just posted a bunch of cool swimbait catches. Halibut on the rat, calicos on the rat, dorado on the rat, yellowtail, yellowfin on the rat, and a whole lot of other crazy stuff. Deps catches, lots of triple trout stuff. Check it out!
