Thanks for the report, Pete.
I like your idea of adding an egg sinker when you need more weight (I have done the same with a red bead between the egg sinker and the leadhead) but what do you think of Captain Dave Bacon's technique of removing the hook from a Hopkins lure and attaching the leadhead to the Hopkins lure for weight and flash?
The addition of the Hopkins lure to the leadhead is for jigging lings and rockfish, but what do you think of using this technique, with a much lighter Hopkins lure, as an addition to a leadhead for calico/sandbass fishing? I am concerned that the split ring might reduce the swimbait action, so maybe all connections should be tied instead, but this results in a lot of knots to be tied. I might try this next time out.

What about just rigging the hopkins spoon w/o any connections, so that it can slide like an egg sinker, or tying a dropper loop with the spoon on the loop?

The Hopkins spoon acting as the weight on a dropper loop sounds pretty good, I might try that sometime. I don't know if I would use it as a slider though. I think it would tangle the line too often. JMO. I've had torpedoes put on the line that way so that they slide and it seems the line is more apt to tangle around the torpedoe or in this case, the spoon. What does seem to work pretty well for me when fishing dropper loops is using a chrome torpedoe tipped with a treble hook. It can be used as a reverse dropper or standard dropper loop rig. The flash of the chrome seems to entice the fish into biting, especially at night. Works real well for Catalina Calicos and even the butts have hit it. Now I haven't tried this technique with swimbaits but it works nicely with the live bait or fresh dead variety.
P.S. By the way, dball, your bears and my Bruins square off in the first round of the Pac10 tourney. Good luck, should be a good one.

I'm pulling for the bears. However, UA vs ucla at the Staples would be a good game to watch...
Go CATS!!!

Hey CATS92, would it be safe to say you're pulling for the Bears for fear of my Bruins possibly meeting up with your Cats? lol. Just Kidding, but you do understand I HAD to respond with something. But really. Is that it?;-)

As a Bruin alum, it's hard for me to say this but... losing to Cal first round would be the best thing that could happen to UCLA b-ball. It would probably mean no invitation to the NCAA tourney and hopefully, hopefully the long overdue dismissal of Steve Lavin. Lavin talks a good game and is pretty slick but his coaching skills are some of the worst I have seen on the college level.

MVBRUIN1, I will take Cal anyday over your bruins. My CATS destroyed the bears last Saturday and actually swept the series to my suprise! I think the bruins and UA are very similar this season, you never know what team will suit up?

Cal was actually using their stunt doubles against UofA, I just hope that we were really just saving up a little sumthin' sumthin' for the Bruins ;-) The Pac10 was incredible this year. How many times did the underdog come up big? We might be able to send six teams to the big dance this year. I'd LOVE to see UCLA get a spot and not StanfUrd :-)
After all this is said and done, we oughta have a Pac10 alumni fishing tournament!

dball, I like the stunt doubles theory. Seems to be pretty prevalent in the Pac this year, especially with my Bruins. God only knows which group is going to show up. But I'm confident the Pac will send six to the dance, no prob. Anyhow, being that this is a fishing board ( I created a monster with this topic, sorry ) a Pac10 Alum tourney sounds pretty cool. I only attended one semester back in '89' due to lack of funds but I hope you don't hold that against me. Maybe we can set something up here on the board. Salt or fresh? I don't think it would really matter . Let me know what you think. I think it would be a great idea. Heck, any fishing tournament is a damn good idea.:P
