Any of you guys ever try rigging on Bago? Do you use Roach rigs or some other type of rigging set up? Thinking about trying it this year during the mud bite, but curious how to go about doing it and if there are any tips or techniques I should key on.

Seems to be alot of the tournament guys doing a fair bit more of it the last few years, and with good success. Thanks for the help.

I do pull harnesses behind 1-1/2oz bouncers around transitions. You need to work the rod for best success so boards really don't work for this as well and the transitions are so narrow most of the time you are not on it with boards. I have caught some real big fish doing this especially on calm days when the fish shut off on top. This is a big time finnese presentation and it requires a lot of feel. When the fish does hit, it will feel like it is caught on bottom. Just let the rod load up and give it a sweeeping hook set.
