The VMC Tokyo Rig will provide you with various presentation options, this is an effective rig which is very versatile.
This rig will keep the bait and weight separated, your bait will hold horizontally as opposed to nose down on the bottom. In addition to that, the weight will not pop the fish’s mouth open on the hook set.
Originating from Japan, the Tokyo rig was originally designed for bass anglers who were looking for an elegant and highly efficient method for penetrating heavy matted weed cover and presenting a freely moving soft plastic lure.
The Tokyo Rig combines aspects of the drop shot rig where the lure is located above the weight at a set distance. As previously stated the rig was originally developed for flipping, pitching and punching which are various bass techniques, the Tokyo rigs utility extends far beyond.
