| New Style of Daisy Chain Here are some new daisy chains I just started to put together. I know that there are some out there configured this way and they really add a lot of action so I threw some together. I've got a couple up on ebay auctions: http://cm.ebay.com/cm/ck/1065-29296-...iptionANDimage http://cm.ebay.com/cm/ck/1065-29296-...iptionANDimage Last edited by RI Popper; 03-03-2007 at 04:45 PM. |

| Popper, They look real nice. The dropper style Daisy Chain is a effective rigging method. We do some special rigs for several Captians using a similiar method.

| Thanks, I have been playing around with a couple combinations of that one on my own and I found that the length of the short dropper line is critical. Make it too long and it can grab the main and too short and it doesn't swim. I think I got it down right now. And I'm using very heavy leader so it will hold up well. By the way I did them with a black head too. and the heads are Jet style. Last edited by RI Popper; 12-29-2006 at 10:29 AM. Reason: forgot something |

| Nice!!  I made one like that but haven't got a chance to pull it yet. How far apart did you space the teasers? I would assume you would want to pull something like that a liitle high, say off the rod tip instead of the flat line to keep all the leader material out of the water. Granted all boat are different but does that sound right to start?

| Oh, I'd run it near the middle of the spread and I don't really think you need to keep the leader out of the water. It's overall length is 10' and they are 26" apart except for 30" to the stinger. I'd run them anywhere from 5.5 to 9.0 mph. Armand |
