7. Rigging - Weedless
In this chapter we look at weedless rigging and how and why you might opt to rig your soft plastic weedless. Weedless (also referred to as snagless) rigging minimises the chance of your soft plastic fouling or snagging, allowing you to more effectively target fish in and around structure, including weed beds, mangroves, fallen timber, lily pads, reef and so forth.
Being 10X Tough and super-soft and flexible makes ZMan soft plastics the perfect plastic for weedless rigging. The material allows you to pin small amounts of plastic into the keepers and hook, with less chance of the plastic tearing when rigging and also when the fish strikes. They can also be rigged over and over again with minimal damage to the material.
