CD Rom Teasers

[Keyskid]

I tried this on another forum without much success, so I'll take a shot here. Some time back there was a sketch posted of how to rig CD-Roms into a teaser. Can anyone point me to that drawing?

Hey Skid, I don't have a link to the picture, but here is what I do.

I drill a small hole in each end and put a good swivel in each hole (the type with double snaps) attach my lure to one end and my main line to the other.

Make sure that you add a trace of wire between the swivels, because Wahoo, Kingfish and the spotted wahoo (baracuda) often will strike the CD Rom.

Sometimes I will glue a couple together to make a stronger heavier teaser.

Best of luck... [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif[/img]

Finally something to do with all the damn AOL
CDs that I keep getting. I'm tired of writing REFUSED on them. Now I can use them for fishing!

Make sure you glue them together and usereall heavy mono 200lg so it does not tangle. Also glue them together or put a varnish over the disks as the film come off when trolling

Forget drilling holes. Take the main line 200 lbs., slide on the CD's, slide sleeves(crimps). Take another piece of mono and tread it through the opposite way the main line went. I do one at a time. Basically you are doing a figure 8 with the 2 pieces of mono thru the hole in the CD. You have to crimp a CD in place, another figure 8 thru the next CD, crimp it in place and so on. Distance between each CD is up to you. I did 5 and put a large Moldcraft at the end of the line to stabilize the rig and make it look like a larger fish chasing the smaller fish(CD's). While live baiting I have had school of Mahi of come up and inspect the rig, they were all over it. The were small and couldn't eat the live bait, but as soon as I pulled the teaser the were gone, the flash is awesome.
I've also had several CD's destoyed by an unknown assailant(spelling) The best thing about using only CD's is that if you hooked a big fish and are unable to clear lines and teaser you can cut the teaser and not worrying about expense.
