Guest IFishSick. Posted March 24, 2007 Share Posted March 24, 2007 They are awsome offshore bait when they're big, big circle through the nose and you're right. As for Estuary I wouldn't know, a rig for flatties might just be circle through the nose and a big enough weight to keep em at the bottom when drifting. Another could be circle through nose, no weight, just let em swim out into the burley trail for pelagics, when they get too far away reel in and repeat.

Chaos Posted March 24, 2007 Share Posted March 24, 2007 Tony at the last workshop gave a great presentation of how to rig up a gar for offshore work with a lot of practical info. Maybe give topy a bell and see if he can help. Cheers Kurt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingsRule Posted March 24, 2007 Share Posted March 24, 2007 When i use them off the wharf , casting out for kingies/bonnito I just pin them with a single hook behind the anal fin (no sinker) They seem to swim naturally and stay alive for a while, as ifish said, let them swim out as far as they want , if it get's to far wind in and repeat.
