Bullhead rig: Dropshot vs slip sinker

[onwind]

when I use the 1st rig, the bullheads kept hitting my bait every half minute. but when I changed to the 2nd rig, I will not get a bite for more than 10 minutes. can 2 hooks make so much difference to 1 hook?

Yes, two hooks should be more efficient than one hook,

If the first rig has two baits and the second rig only has a single bait - this may also explain why the first is more effective.............ie more scent and taste in the water and double the hooks.........

.......try 4?

Yes, it's very similar, but I use a dropper loop knot for the hooks. this rig is very simple, only need 1 line, one sinker and 2 hooks. I like its simplicity.
