Here is one of my favorite ways to modify a “freestyle” or “unrigged” swimbait and make them a line thru. I love rigging my Bass Mafia Daingerous Swimbait this way because it allows me to land more fish by removing the leverage of the bait vs traditional rigging methods.

What rivet are you using, I can only find short ones.
What size swivel do you use?
Perfect video, straight to the point!
Do you seem to get more bites on the line thru? I bet the hook ups are better.
I would think that rivet would cut your line, how about a plastic straw
Do you use a size 1 for the 7 inch also?
Great solution! Just what I was thinking of doing but wasn’t sure the best way. You already did the heavy lifting with your proven method. Thank you for video!
Great setup John. I just started throwing bigger swimbaits and caught a 5lber at Pickwick a couple weeks ago. I was using a MagDraft. Would I be able to rig the freestyle MagDraft like this as well?
Great video buddy
John. your page is realling great, been picking up a lot of ideas from your recent and older shows. Apart from the online site, who would stock the Swate Rods?
Thanks for sharing man!
is there a name/size/type you can share for that rivet? Length? weight?
Great way to rig it, good luck this year!
