Mann's Alabama Rig
 

Has anyone tried Mann's Alabama Rig for Specs?

Im sure it would work. The problem I see is you have to use a heavy action rod and heavy braid to fish it. With the paper mouths trout have you will loose alot of fish. Looks like your throwing a damn crab trap with swimbaits attached. :D

we usually use these

Even better. Marshworks has started making them for $10 less.
1/2 oz. Cinco del Bayou $15

And yes, they catch specks.

Pictures???

Chris and them have all that.

Watching a FLW bass tournament right now and everyone that is fishing the final day is throwing the Alabama Rig and smoking the fish. Catching 2 at a time on some cast.

could you imagine throwing that thing all day. I bet your arm would be pretty sore.

at lake guntersville Elias had over 100 total pounds.... thats friggin phenomenal.

These guys have been throwing it all day for 4 straight days. My out of shape butt couldn't do that.

if i did that i would end up with my arm in a sling and a neck brace. Lol!!!!!!!!!

110lb 4 day total

My new Trolling rig.....For real Im doing it and going to troll it out about 100 Yards behind my boat with trolling motor....

LOL!!!!!!!!!!

that's unreal

You can catch 300 trout on one cast bruh

It's just like throwing a 1/2 oz jig guys. It's not bad.

Yeah just like a half ounce jig (with five other quarter oz jigs tied to that and five softbodied Swim baits around a quarter oz each on those, so yeah just like a half ounce jig.) :)

How do you fish something like this?

How much does your rig weigh unrigged?

So let me get this straight. Now when you get hung up instead of losing 1 bait you lose 5? I'm not knocking this rig just trying to figure out the purpose of throwing something like this.

To keep the bait company's in business. :-)

its an open water rig. not meant for structure. its a steady retrieve soo you shouldnt have too many problems in salt water with hangups. IMO. unless there is some unforseen object submerged. not saying it isnt possible to hang up but the way its fished is meant to keep it away from all that.

lol!!!!!!!!! I would really love to see this thing in action then maybe i would understand it more. Can you get it with out the baits so i can soak 5 dead skrimps so i can catch 5 sheephead at one time. Is so i'll take a case.

Unriggedd its exactly 1 oz

You not get hung throw and reel... Its not a bait you fish bottom with.... Its a bait to catch fish in a school

yeah, you got the true A-rig-$25, 5 jigheads- $4, pack of shadalicous/ money minnow- $9 and the 7'6"-8' rod to toss it all- $150!

looking crazy, flailing that thing off the front deck - priceless! :rotfl:

u forgot the 65lb braid. and a partridge in a pear tree.

i can guarantee i would look like a monkey trying to screw a football throwing this thing.

:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
D'oh! u right, my bad :spineyes:

have you ever tried one of these?

I'm not throwing them with 1/4 oz jigs. Swimbaits with straight shanks Texas rigged. And 3 in swimbaits at that. 7'6 mh rod 50 lb braid. Not bad at all.

All preference. But I'll continue slingin on them ;)

Tie you some of dem $20+ lucky craft crankbaits on. Then loose it.

$15 for the same thing at marshworks. Not $25.

I have a freind of mine that when i you go fishing with him he almost hooks someone every time. If i ever see one of these tied to one of his rods i'm not steping foot in the boat.

No one would be talking **** about this rig if you would've watched the tournament I saw today...the thing flat out catches fish!!!!

i'm not doubting that i would really like to see one in action.

I'm rigging one up tonight with 1/8oz jig heads and sand eels

well if you're using it then it has to work. Jk!!! Lol!!!!!!!!

Lol. I know the feeling.

we went fishing in lacassine pool one time and he was throwing a buzzbait everytime he threw i thought i had a helicoptor around my head.

:eek:

would think a swim bait/paddle tail would have more action and mimic a schooling shad better?? but hey if you catch let me know.

ima rig one up with a beetle spin, a bandit 100, a ol monster worm, a super spook and a jerk jr! give em the 'buffet style'! :rotfl:

Lol. I've been hit by a buzzbait and it HURTS.
