I'm interested in rigging some chicken lines on my N6.0. I'm curious as to what others have found best. A look at the LexisNexis web site shows the arrangement in the photos below.









This is how they describe it:



"The chicken line is attached to the transom, and secured with bungee forward to take up slack. The loop of line is held on with a Prussic knot (common rope climbing knot), so it can be easily slid fore and aft, but will hold tight when loaded.



The small carabineer allows one-handed hook-up. We hook it on the trap handle, not on ourselves.



Getting in and out of these is a hassle, but worth it.



The front end of the chicken lines attach to bungee to take up slack. The black line fetches up tight if we are washed backwards by a wave, so the chicken line works both to prevent us from flying forward, and also to prevent us from getting washed off backwards."



Any other thoughts?
