Coated rigs

Yeh, you can coat rigs in the same way but it affects the rig matierial, you just use super glue or a fancy rig resin, coat your hooklink/hook (leave your hook point and the curve of the shank clear.

However It will stiffen your rig and can weaken some hooklinks (suden pull by the fish on a glued up knot can snap it easier than normal)

As simple as tying a piece of weed to your line at the swivel and hook. You can trap the weed under the knotless knot as you tie the hook on.

 

Personally I don't bother, my hooklinks look camouflaged enough in the water with the materials I use. I do get into the water at times to check as well :wink:

 

But if you think you need to do it and it gives you confidence then try it, maybe on 1 rod and with an ordinary uncovered hooklink on the other and see which produces most
