Hi guys this is an easy way to make a bait holder when using circles.
Step1
Get some hair curlers
Polystyrene
Some wire

 

[mustbite]

Take the polystyrene and push it into the curler.

 

[mustbite]

Cut the wire and give it a eye where the hook will go threw and push it threw the polystyrene.

 

[mustbite]

Bend the wire at the end where you attach the sinker and glue the ends closed.

Will post a pic of it baited up later
Cheers

PEP Stores apparently have sometimes. I was given a couple but they are suprisingly hard to find.

Is this being used on a pully rig?

 

[Strepie]

You can use them on any rig.

Excuse my noobishness guys, but won't you be sinkerless after this? Or is this the point?
Also with this setup what would you be targeting?
FYI - I've only been doing river fishing. Only now exploring the surf & spinning & my new favourite - lures!
So learning the ropes so to speak.

The rig shown is incomplete, it is for demonstration of the DD only.

It remains my opinion that a pulley rig works best with this set up.

Mustbite, please do the complete rig and place a photo

Hi there guys
Yes it is a limited pully rig works best for me ,I will post better pics of the DD setup the pic that I posted before only needed a main line and bait. I must say that it goes a mile wmen casting.

The complete explanation and photos are in the Rising Tide Magazine. There are now four different sizes available and are stocked by Trophy Tackle Den.

To get back to a earlier question asked here. Are you suppose to loose your weight that's clipped to the dingle dangle?

Still have not seen a complete rig?

 

[mustbite]

Hi there the sinker is clipped on and as it hits the water it comes free but you don't loose the sinker
