Image via WikipediaTod Huckabee demonstrates how to tie the knot he relies on every day on the water.I have always liked tandem rigs for pan fishing - 2 jigs about 6 to 24 inches apart depending on the depth of the water. They are also great in holes in lily pads. These rigs will tell you what color is good and what size jig is best for the moment.
Personally I tie knots where I can put the line through the eye of the jig, then loop the line over the jig after the knot is tied. That way I can change jigs to determine color and jig size.
This video shows you how to tie jigs to a line very easily and this guy is a professional that uses this setup all the time.
Using two jigs you can not only determine the color and size but the depth of the fish Prospecting as it were until you find them. At times I have found that two different sized jigs are better. A smaller, lighter weight on top and a larger one on the bottom.
That way when the fish get shy of the bottom lure the top one is different and available.
I like marabou jigs because the slightest movement make the feathers move looking like something the fish might eat.
Try it and I think you will really like the way it is done and will catch a lot of fish.
