    Thanks so much for your instructions. I tried the Free Rig today but struggled with the retrieve. Now that I know its a slack line presentation, and I have to watch the line for bites it makes A LOT more sense now. Definitely going to work on this next weekend and over my vacation! I have 1/8th tungsten drop shot weights, but ordering some 3/16 and 1/4's. Also had to track down some JDM 3.5 inch Kut Tails, but got those on order too. Going to grab some Shad's as well. While I struggled with it today, I loved how the rig felt on my BFS setup =)

    I have been using a Free Rig for the past two years and I found it works better on a spinning reel. When casting I leave the bail open until I think it reaches the bottom the slack line allows more separation between the weight and the hook.

      This weight can move smoothly since it has less friction than bullet weights. And the weight shape gives us a bit longer casting distance. On the other hands, I love using Texas to fish rocks and weeds.
