The weight adjusts the depth of the rig without directly adding weight to the jig body. Space the leaders so the rings don’t touch each other during retrieval. When fishing from a boat, look for a setup that remains controllable while drifting.
Work the rig in short bursts followed by pauses, keeping the line visible. From the shore, avoid a sudden cast that could tangle the arms. The “SS” designation here refers to the Calmero format and does not mean it should be used on its own as a weighted egi.
