STABOR® Fishing Tips
Using
STABOR®
with
the
Carolina
Rig
&
Texas
Rig
This
is
the
first
way
to
rig
a
STABOR®
directly
to
your
barrel
swivel.
Strikes
are
common
where
the
slip
sinker
and
bead
are
located,
which
you
have
no
other
alternative
but
to
set
the
hook.
If
you
leave
two
inches
on
your
line,
attach
a
hook
using
a
STABOR®
to
it
along
with
your
favorite
plastic
lure
as
seen
in
the
photo,
you
will
at
least
get
a
sporting
chance
when
the
fish
strikes
at
it.
THE STABOR®
RIG, FOR WORM
FISHING.
This
is
the
second
way
providing
you
with
a
triple threat and a sporting chance,
which insures a higher percentage catch
because you
are
1"inch closer to the strike zone, a wounded bait appearance
and
you
have
increased line holding power. Use it on all types of RIGS.
Below
are
the
instructions
from
step
1
thru
step
6
for
using
with
the
Texas
and
Carolina
Rig
setup.
Shown
in figure's 1 of 6 is how you place the line lock inside hook eyelet via short
shank half-loop.
Next,
using a pair of pliers or needle nose, gripping the short shank and pulling up
the long shank until they cross-over as in figure two.
(Some Folk's use there thumb nail to crossover
short shank to the long shank, this is not a recommended procedure.)
Place
the slip sinker on the line, using monofilament or new super-lines, make a
2" loop and bring it over into the short shank, pulling together-away and
down (clockwise ), start
wrapping around the long shank only. Wrap to the end of long shank, pulling lure
and lines in opposite directions
to snap into the end lock loop.
Cut
the extra line
(short-tail), down to the thickness of your thumb or forefinger for
easy removal, ( see Line Locking Instructions ) and your ready for step three.
Feed the hook and STABOR®
into the head of the worm 1"inch further than normal burying the STABOR®
and hook into the head of the worm It should look like the figure below, except
the loop-lock is buried.
Take
a knife or scissors, cut at the junction (elbow) of hook and STABOR®
eyelet, giving an appearance of wounded bait. This should increase your strike
percentage. This will also offer better Protection of the worm head, increasing
usage.
