I've been working on this technique for a while, my next article in November edition of FWA covers off this rig. Worked a treat.

Very Excited!!
I love it when a plan comes together.
Caught a couple of SB's on it after that then lost it to a snag and then switched to jigging, courtesy of Kasey rigging me up properly. Managed another SB on the jig before my old bones started getting tired.
Looks like I am going to have to start using the home gym a bit more if I want to nail a fish like Kasey did.

There's a clue!
Well theres a clue in there and I think the clue is:
1) Its big
2) A fish of some some kind
But still bluffed.
Good stuff Kasey and Andy Mac. Loving it how all this commotion is all about a fish! Which we won't see in ages...

Bump.
This is a pic of the rig we were discussing. I recently bought a big pack of small white jig heads of similar size. They seem to work well.

Have you had problems being busted off yet andy? Fished with a KG rig similar and something decent took it and rubbed me off with the leader being 40lb, fishing in 40m on coral patches.

Good Article
G'Day Andy
I really enjoyed that article, and love the jig head / p.crab combination as a bycatch trace.
Something else to try - too much gear to acquire, too many techniques - not enough days.

Yeah pretty sure I got a decent dhuie on (the sucking action) then line peeled of and snap. So made some up with 100lb supple trace which should stop them!
