1-way to rig large live bait on your jug 's

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

here is how i found to rig large live bait on a circle hook
i use a crochet hook but a straightened out fish hook or paper clip with bend in the end of paper clip will work fine,
(1) take a 2" length of line tie ends together and hook over your circle hook
(2) run the crochet needle behind the eyes of the bait through the eye socket and pull loop on hook through and then hook that end on circle hook there it is attached to bait
(3) hold hook ,twist bait till all slack is twisted up snug to bait then run point of circle hook under line from nose of bait backward then it is a snug fit and will stay on good

That set-up is very similiar to some of the ballyho, and mullet rigs for trolling sailfish.
