VA Striper Rigs

[Miles Offshore]

You saw what we call a MoJo Trayder. Use them all the time and they run anywhere from 10 oz up tpo 60 oz's. We run a short lenth of leader usually 100 to 150 lb test, I like clear Ande off of one side of #3 three way and we will normally run what is locally called a parachute, which is similar to a MoJo but a lot lighter and usually fancier on the other side of the 3 way on a 10 ft leader. They are quite expensive running anywhere up to 25$ a bait, and I like the big Mojo's for weight and usually skip the Parachute. I normally fish 5 lines with no outriggers and will fish the MoJo rig on wire line down the ,middle.This is more than you asked for , I would be happy to tell you more if you like or ship you or put you into contact with someone who makes, sells distributes both. Craig

In fact , for the mojo you can take big inline leads and powder paint them , use big split rings and attach large hooks 12/0 to 16/0 single tied with some bucktail on them and thread a big chartuese rubber tail 9"and you have one.

Ok Here goes....

John R: Thanks for the comments on the boat! The previous owner deserves all the credit, he really loved it and put a lot of $$$ and time into it. The console is the largest that was available at the time, apparently the Master Angler package or something like that.

SquidRig: That wasn't me on Memorial Day weekend. i was out on that day but we fished s.w. of Great Island off Hyannis. Caught a huge Black Sea Bass on a 7" Bomber trolled on the surface, go figure.
Some keeper bass and a few 7lb blues too.

Trayder: I'd be glad to show you a few spots that I like, no secrets really, just good spots that produce well. Steve is that man to see for the HOT spots tho, I'm begging him for his black book of #'s myself! You can email me when you are coming up, ggibbons@attbi.com and I'll tell you what I can at the time. I'd love to know how those rigs work around here.

Thanks to all as always, Hoop
