- How to make the best rig for snapper, I have used this Snapper rig over the years to catch a lot of large reds, float lining off the east and south coasts of Australia.
It is the perfect float lining Snapper rig.
The rig in the video is the main rig I use to chase large Snapper. It is a very easy rig to make and use and does work very well on Reds of all sizes.
What You Will Need To Make The Rig.
Lumo tube, thin
Small Lumo Beads
30 to 40 pound trace line
Small ball sinker size 0,1 or 2
5/0 0ctopus hooks
Making the Float Lining Rig For Snapper.
First thing is to cut your leader to length and I usually run around two metres and then tie on your first hook.
Now from the other end of the leader slide on a piece of lumo tube, the tube should be around 2 inches long. Next is to snell the second hook onto the leader just above the lumo tube and now add one small bead followed by the sinker, now tie the leader onto your main line.
Why I Use The Lumo Bead And Tube.
I do believe that using lumo does help to attract Snapper but instead of using lumo sinkers I like the tube and bead because they protect the line and stop the noise, let me explain.
The tube between the hooks works well as a line protecter from teeth and reef. The lumo bead between the hook and sinker stops the sinker hitting the hook and making a tinning sound.

Thanks 👍
Mate what a great set up, I’m a beginner so every bit of advice is helps ! Still haven’t landed my snapper hey 😅
Glad it helped
Brilliant mate, your videos are tip top and much appreciated.
You are very welcome mate.
Good rig. Nice clear explanation. Good sense.thanks mate
Glad you liked it
Love your comment about the top knot on the rig... "Get off the forums and get fishing"... I have tied almost that exact same thing many times with successful results and no rig failures. The only thing I did different was stretch a very short piece of Lumo tube over the top Snell. I like your "No wank factor" approach.👍
Thank you mate and I will try the Lumo tube next time Im out using this rig.
Thanks mate great info.
Thanks Buddy I hope it helps you over Snapper season.
Nice👍 lumo tube is a good idea mate
Thanks 👍
Great vid mate. I know you got a boat but do you ever go rock fishing? I went to Fingal Head the other day, 3 x 4.0 gangs with pillie and 60gr sinker, really want to catch a tailor. Got swept back to the rocks and lost 2 rigs in 10 min. Someone told me no sinker, just let it float. Would you be able to do a vid on rigs etc. If you can please for this sort of situation? Would be much appreciated. Coffee coming your way.
Thank you mate. I will do a video on some rock fishing rigs soon.
Thanks
No problem
👍
Thanks for the great vid!
An how- to on how to spool a spinning reel for both braid and mono to prevent line twist would be good.
A great idea thanks mate. May I ask which reel you are getting line twist with. Is it a bait runner and what brand of line are you using?
@@Aussie-Fishing Thanks for the reply.I’m just getting into fishing so no expert .
Nice video and information plus advice, what was that for the line protector you put on, is this simply something i can find at a fishing supply store like Dicks sports or Acadamey sports.
Thanks mate. The protecter tube I use is just a thin soft 1 mm lumo tube you can buy from most tackle shops. Good luck mate
Thanks for the video.
When your changing ur sinker to suit the current do u cut it off at the FJ braid knot?
Yes mate you do but I tie an Albright knot it is a lot quicker to tie.
Hey Mate, great vid. Just confirming this rig can used for live bait? Cheers, J
Yes mate it can. Good luck buddy.
If you had to adjust the sinker size on the day, does this mean you have to retie your knot at the top of the leader, or would you ever use a splitshot?
Hi mate unfortunately you need to retie your leader every time you do a sinker change, a fixed in place split shot won't work for this type of fishing/rig.
What would be the 6 most common leader sizes for fishing outside that you would use?
30 and 40 pound in supple for float lining and lures. 60 and 80 pound in a hard for live baiting and bottom bashing. Good luck mate.
Nice rig mate, what depth do you normally use this rig in? Would it be possible to use in shallow around 3-5m?
Yes mate this float line rig would be perfect for that just take the sinker off and let the bait float down slowly. I use this rig in all depths (10 to 90 metres) I adjust the sinker size according to the depth. Good luck mate.
@@Aussie-Fishing thanks mate, would a love bait be possible on this rig? If so do you go too hook to mouth or bottom?
@@zzbky9093 Yes mate this rig works well with live baits. Put the top hook (The one the sinker and bead sit on ) through the mouth and the bottom pin lightly through the tail area. Good luck.
Can cut bait be used on this rig
Yes mate you can just make sure you cut the bait into a strip long enough for both hooks to go in.
