    Question Premade setups?

    Has anyone heard about making premade set ups for panfish. What I mean is where you already have multiple set ups ready in case you need to change in a hurry. I you do how do you store them.

    Thanks in advance

    Yes, I store single and double dropper rigs ready to go.
    What I use is a 5"X3" foam block of 5/8" foam (you can glue together several layers of sheet foam to get the depth). I stick round headed hat pins in the ends of the block (usually 3 or 4). With a loop at one end of the pre-rigged flies, and a fly at the other end, I loop over a hatpin head, wind the line around the foam, and hook the fly into the foam. I can easily get one rig per hatpin without tangling up.
    They sell this kind of rig holder for about $5 but you can make MANY for that price.

    My dad used these for ice fishing when his arthritis prevented him from tying knots in the cold. He could still do the loop to loop connection to put them on the line.

    I can think of few acts more selfish than refusing a vaccination.
