Trap-Rig Swim Bait

[reefer]

I been using this with my swim baits, it produce more fish. Just wanted to mention it. Hope we all can share tricks or the trade.

Thats a good idea for large swimbaits or slugs.

Thanks for the tip. What knot do you use for tying the loop in the braid?

[Billy V]

A surgeons loop will work well and will not slip in the spectra.

Guys, I've made trap hooks exactly like on the pictures.
One problem: While I am casting, the trap hook catching line at the flying.
It is happens in 80% of casting. I've tried to change stile of casting like side cast, overhead cast etc. Result the same. Any suggestions?
Thanks

Does the line to the trap hook tear out thru the side of the bait?

Thank you for response!
Nop. It exactly like on the final picture. Only one difference: the line to the trap is ending by loop that is grasping the main hook.
I pulling the braided line by loop through tail and let it out through the same hole where jighead hook tearing out. After that I pull jighead little back.
The end of main hook almost hiding in the body. Then I pushing it forward the way it piercing the end loop. So whole trap hook line is inside of body. Trap hook in the same position like on the last picture.
