Sailfish / Marlin Rig

I have got most of my gear sorted now for targeting a few sails and baby blacks on a upcoming trip to Ningaloo.

The only thing i forgot to ask the boys at oceanside when i was there was do you go to a big clip swivel on the end of your wind on.

Josh and the boys spooled my reels up for me and Josh tied a couple of Richter wind ons on for me and i bought a couple of pre rigged richter skirts.

 

Do i go wind on to big shogun clip to the leader on the lure? And if thats the case whats the best knot to tie the swivel on with? Would the chain knot i use for jigging be fine?

 

Cheers Jayce

 swivel clip is usual. If your windons are heavy may be best to crimp rather than try to tie knots

Richter Swivel & Clip

Hi Jayce,

 

At the end of your wind-on leader just tie a uni knot to a Richter hi-tensile swivel and clip (important to buy the right brand) that way you can clip on/off your billfish lures etc
