personally, I don't put split rings on my ss, I suppose you could but my cast is fine, the hook folds, and my hookup is still great, as for the bm, I only have 1 thats going for sale so I really can't help you.

I use split rings on all my plugs. There was a good discussion here about a year ago on rigging SS darters and the different configurations used.

As Toby says. When I fished plugs (which I don't anymore) I always had split rings on the belly and tail hook. By putting a split ring the bass doesn't have the opportunity to get leverage on the hook.

By the way, for all you plug ho's, I have over 700 plugs that will go up for sale soon. I'm gonna do lots of 5 and 10. Some of the real old plugs which are one of a kind will go alone.

Between bunker spoons, live bunker and eels, I just don't throw plugs anymore. 40 years of throwing wood and plastic is enough.

No boat, back in the suds.

Nebe, not a sage at all. Just want to tip the odds in my favor now. I have fished for a long time and spent plenty of nights with the "skunk" as my companion. Plugs catch fishermen. Live pogies and eels catch Bass.

Yep. Everything gets a split ring for me these days. Siwash tail hooks are the only things not to get rings.
