Snapper fishing in areas of light current require rigs that have little weight, this is where the Strayline Rig is very effective. This rig can be used with either circle hooks or suicide patterns with the snood knot being the easiest knot to tie the hooks. Always try to use a minimal amount of weight, to much lead may result in the fish dropping the bait.

Live baiting for game fish from the rocks is one of the most challenging forms of fishing. Not only are the fish difficult to catch but the conditions are usually against the angler too, this technique of rigging was designed to be castable and adaptable to changing conditions without having to completely re-rig. Keep in mind that this rig can be altered in line class and hook size to suit any fish species, however, different line classes will require careful thought into which knots will be most suitable to connect lines of vastly differing diameters.

Fishing in areas of high tidal influence can be difficult. The two rigs illustrated in this section are designed to get your bait on the bottom while still offering all of the benefits of a running sinker rig. The Ezi-Rig protects your mainline from damage a sinker could cause and works equally effectively on braid and mono. These rigs should be of interest to anyone intending to fish Western Port in Vic, Point Lowly SA and anywhere in Northern Australia during spring tides.

Squid fishing can often be successful during times of high wind or strong current, the key is to get your jig in the right zone. Using a weighted rig can improve your chances by getting your lure right in front of the squid, even if they are hunting close to the bottom this rig will reduce snagging and keep your jig weed free.

An excellent rig for fishing on the drift or while at anchor in waters deeper than 10 meters. The use of circle hooks allows fish to hook themselves with out the need to strike the rod, this can be particularly effective when fishing very deep water.
