Meat head rigging

[final flight]

Can't find meat heads large enough for whole Alwives , has anyone tried cutting the tails off and running them backwards in the heads?? Sounds goofy but.....

Big Wheenie makes whole bait heads. The actually run decent also. All in the Same Boat tackle in Newfane (Olcott) carries them. Also known as ASB Tackle. You can find them on Facebook and he will ship them as well.

I talked to Gary (big weenie) and he informed me that his heads won't take the bigger saw bellies, just seeing if anyone has tried running them backwards ?

check out ITO FLIES idk if they have a website but they are on fb , if you go the fb route also search out Ryan Koepke he is the owner . He's got some great meat rigs and Flies .

You can also filet a part of the head off so they fit in your current set-up. Or just make strips.

For the large ones that do not fit in the bait heads I actually cut the heads off but leave everything else including the stomach whole and it works well. I've never tried backwards but there's no reason it wouldn't work. You might have to run it a little faster to get the action needed due to the end weighing more
