Gday guys, I was just interested to see how people prefer to rig their Blue marlin lures, especially the Hawaiian style Slant heads like the Joe Yee's, Marlin Magic's and Bart's.
Could spend hours and hours going over the different rigs, probably one of the most debated topics when it comes to gamefishing. For me personally, if I was targetting blues and there were no annoying stripes which just piss around, I would fish double hook rigs - Mustad 7732S in the front and a 7691S in the back, stiff rigged and toothpicked to keep it upright, front hook up and rear hook down. This is the traditional Hawaiian rig, and no one knows better when it comes to lure fishing with them.
I haven't targetted blues specifically, so I guess the best way is trial and error......just after some opinions on how others rig their lures
Cheers, tight lines
Daniel
