When the original D-Rig Kicker was released, DF used it in conjunction with his favourite Spinner Rig by trimming down the body of the Kicker and pushing it over the crook of his Spinner Swivel. This process worked well in principle, utilising the QC properties of the Spinner and the highly effective hooking mechanics of the D-Rig. However, pushing the trimmed body over the Spinner Swivel could be a tricky process, due to the thin diameter of the rubber; step forward the dedicated Spinner D-Rig Kicker.
