I dont bait fish much anymore and dont like pickerel rigs. But if and when i use bait in a fast moving river i use a hook a couple of feet above the weight. Simple,effective and no tangles. Not much to loose. I tie weight on in a way that it breaks away first before the main line can break. Either worms or minnows work for me this way.
