Thank you so much for making this video. I used this exact setup and caught 5 small Blacktip and 1 Shovelhead as well as several other species. I had some difficulty with the Haywire twist but managed to make a few rigs. I was able to use only 1 while I fished for 2 weeks in Belleair Beach, FL near Clearwater Beach. I never had to worry about my line breaking. I did need to put a second bead between the tag and weight swivel. Thanks !!!
Ur videos are the best bro, I followed this video and ur fg knot video and landed my first big shark which was a 5 foot lemon shark. Such a rush and now I'm addicted to land based shark fishing. Ur informing lots of people , keep them coming
Thank you and I'm always happy to hear that!
@@LandsharkOutdoors really enjoyed this video!! Just got one question, do you really trust that fg knot to hold up to the tension of catching a shark?
@@glock_9ine956 100 percent, that’s all my buddies and I use, they’ve caught 12 foot hammers with fgs
Just moved to Jacksonville FL last year and been wanting to go shark fishing. I have been watching your videos and taking notes. Good info! Thanks.
Goto Micklers Landing at dusk, its crazy over there
Where do you go I’m also in Jax
Last year I got 153 different species of fish however, did not have the knowledge to catch sharks. Also I lived in Iowa lol recently moved to Florida and I’m really missing ice fishing so I decided I would look into this shark fishing as a substitute, This is the first video that popped up. Thank you love it tight lines.
Going shark fishing with a group of veterans on the Texas Gulf Coast soon, and I wanted to know more - you're video nailed it for me. Thanks!
It WORKS!! Used it today and caught a 40" nurse shark within 3 minutes of throwing my first bait! FUN!!
I've been waiting all day for this 😂😂
Wait no more lol
this is really helpful for a beginner surf fisher like myself
a nighttime beach snook fishing vid with artificials would be awesome, lure selection, tides, favorite wind, surf conditions etc.. awesome vids guys!!
Thanks for watching Chris.
I can give you some pointers right now.
For lures:
Any swimbait: Spoolteks, Storm swim baits, DOA Baitbuster etc.
Soft plastics: such as DDX, Hogy
Plugs: X-raps in size 14 I like the glass ghost color, Olive and sardine blue back colors
Jigs: Firstlight go 1oz
Tide: you want to be there last two hours of incoming and first two of outgoing, so fish around the high tide mark.
I like to fish the beach when the water is stirred up from an East wind, the fish eat better. 2-3ft seas is probably the roughest I would fish in, as it gets hard to work a lure when its rough especially with seaweed. Also when its rougher out I would fish bigger profile baits and baits that submerge such as jigs or swimbait and when its calmer fish a plug.
Great video man. Recently moved from the great Lakes to the Gulf Coast and am disoriented by all of the info thrown at me. You are really helping me get going. Love the simple stuff. Thank you.
W post I feel like I found an old gem considering you are almost at a million!!
Caught my first 5+ foot shark on this rig! That fg knot is a game changer for casting
Awesome video. Just getting into surf fishing on a low budget and this helped a lot as far as rigging goes.
Every video just gets better !!! Thanks Dude
I'm trying lol

and size
awesome new to this shark fishing im from ky just moved to Georgia been catching a bunch of small sharks but larger ones kept breaking off until I found your "how to" videos haven't had one to break off since keep up the good work thank you
Absolutely great video!Love fishing for sharks in the surf.I have been doing it for 3 years now!! Keep it up the great uploads. Good Luck And Tight Lines!!!

Hi Viktor and Landshark Fishing community! For a newly addicted surf fisherman and subscriber from the midwest your videos are extremely informative and inspiring!
With the intent of fishing small sharks from the beach (4-6ft) I've purchased the largest saltwater spinning reel that I can currently afford and have paired it with an 11' rod rated for 20-40lb line and 3-8oz lures. Based on the length and speed of runs on your videos I'm concerned about line capacity. The stated reel capacity for mono is 20lb: 400 yd, 25lb: 290 yd, 30lb: 220 yd. In the interest of boosting my yardage capacity I am planning on a backing of 30-40lb braid with a 130 yd topshot of 30lb mono.If my calculations are correct this should give me a total spool of approximately over 300 yds. I plan on tipping with a 4-6 ft 80-100lb mono leader and a wire rig using #12 single strand per your excellent video. I like the working end of the mainline being mono for it's shock absorbing stretch and abrasion resistance since it'll be in contact with the sand while the bait is on the bottom. Regarding my anticipated set up I have the following questions:
1) Would you opt for lighter line and higher yardage capacity?
2) I plan on marrying the topshot to the braid backing via a blood knot or a double uni-knot. Is one knot preferable over the other for this application? And is there any issue with either knot "flowing" through the guides under the tension of a hook up?
3) The same question applies to my mainline/leader connection: If using a 6' leader of 80-100lb mono w/wire terminus will a blood knot or double uni flow through the guides for casting?
4) Finally, on the shark rig video a heavy mono leader of 4' is recommended. I've noted on other videos that the heavy mono leader should be at least as long as the fish you're targeting, so if 6' blacktips are a potential target should the leader length be pushed out to 6' to help avoid "tail cut offs"?
Thanks Viktor and Landshark Fishing Nation for any thoughts and advice!
Great video, headed to Clearwater in 2 weeks and looking forward to trying surf fishing with this type of rig. Good luck to everyone and tight lines!
I used to shark fish from Dauphin Island beach using either a 3way swivel or a very very beefed up version of a Carolina rig. This method seems to be the better marriage of the two. Very cool video, thanks for the info. I've subscribed.
Great video, clearky one of the better onews I have seen. Thank you. My only suggestion is to show the finished rig at the beginning and at the end. When giving a speech, the old addage of "tell/show them what you are going to do, tell/show them, and then tell/show them what you did." Even consider including a diagram of the way the finished assemblage is put together at the end so people can pause the video to write it down or draw a picture to have when they try to do it on their own later. I have subscribed and am looking forward to watching your other videos
I Love shark fishing. The weather has not been my friend lately but I hope to get out there soon. Love the video it is always good to see another way to rig up.
This time of year the weather is very hit or miss, with hurricane season and the start of cold fronts.
I caught my first shark on this rig about a 4 ft black tip on 20lb braid and got it in no problem
What baot
Bait
Man you make it look so easy and your haywire twist look great I am struggling hard bro mine look like crappie gonna still try an use them lol ty for the video
Ty for clarifying the fg knot for braid to mono. Ill also be trying this with gar
Nevermind, I just went back through your vids and found one I must have missed showing the bigger rigs. Thanks!
good tackle tip, very old skool, stuff that has worked for generations, don't need the 500lb mono with crazy terminal tackle.
I can't stand crimps
I got a new penn spinfisher ssv6500 and can not wait to test it out this summer!!!
Heading to OBX in few days: recently picked up a Daiwa surf combo, BG5000 reel on a 1002MH 10' rod. Looking to run 65lb braid and run my rig out with my kayak say 100-200yds roughly. This video was very helpful because a) I have not surf fished since I was kid b) I have never hooked into a big fish from the beach, let alone a shark c) there are so many different approaches when it comes to fishing one can loose their mind.
For ur rod arsenal I should have and keep a heaver . A 12 to 15 ft conventional rod and a conventional reel . Be glad to see a video one day of @landsharkfishibg using a heaver .
Good stuff, thank you for a non crimped version
Haha dude this is my first time and I bought everything you bought and then I watched this video and was like I most have bought the right stuff because i bought what you bought
Thank you! We are going shark fishing for the first time soon and your video had helped a lot!
Caught a 40in bull red over the weekend using this set up. Hopefully I will catch a shark next weekend. Thank you for the video
Great video. Just started getting into shark fishing here in Hawaii and your rig/tips are really helpful. Thanks!
I don’t really use a surf shark rig alot but when I do it’s 150lb min coated cable double crimped and 7ft of that w/ 200lb max mono shock leader
And a 9/0 circle hook shock leader acts as a wind on 50lb braid mainline w avet Jax raptor as reel and an 11ft surf rod
Nice video, hope to try this set up in the future... keep up the good work on your videos. I am one of the many that are wanting to get into this and you truly serve a ton.
Nice work looks good let's see a vid on what reels and reel size for pier and surf
Will do Bentley!!
You make amazing and helpful videos I love your channel, keep up the good work👍
Great stuff! Can you put one (a how to video) together for the larger rigs used on those 8+ Tigers and hammers please.
What he ^^^^^^ said please?
th-cam.com/video/QoCFMVdsQl8/w-d-xo.html&lc=z12lwfbaynv0ynrks23jfjvhgmryudlxj04
That helped alot thank you i used it today and got a little tipper
Awesome!
Thank you for taking the time to make these videos. My only question is the sinker..what stops it on the top side of the rig. I know it can't go any further the other way because you have the bead and swivel to stop it..What goes on the top side if I'm explaining this correctly? Thank you.
Mobile AutoMD nothing goes at the top, which allows it to slide any amount up. But when you reel in line it will stop at the bead.
man I love the vids and I can't wait to go shark fishing in a couple of months. I'm buying a new rod and i will DEFINITELY use this rig!!!
Also I will try to but the rod you mentioned in the video
I like the 3 way setup. I usually use a bottom rig where the weight is on the main line, I tie and swivel then I tie the leader. Not sure what it's called. Nice video by the way.
Thank you, that way works well on a boat or fishing under pier, but for casting out baits a bottom rig like the one shown is the preferred way. It allows you to fish a bank or pyramid sinker, which holds bottom better and won't slide around the sand like an egg weight.
Not sure if I heard you correctly, but if your fishing braid, you should go from braid, to mono leader, to swivel, to steel leader?
This is the third time that I watched this video.. Great and very interesting.....
Sounds good I trust your judgment Ill drop back down to 100 pound leader until I get my kayak and start dropping baits , thank u for the response
Thanks for this Victor.I will definitely use this rig.
really loved this video very informative. keep up the great content
Thank you
-Viktor
Great video...is weight need just for casting? Im intending to use a drone to drop bait if it can carry it.
MiamiFamily4 weights are needed so the bait doesn't float on top
well done and very clear. thanks for the work making this video!
Awesome rigging tips, thanks.
Great vid i learned alot thanks bro keep up the good work
What would you recommend for your main line? How strong should you go?
Dan Tomasetti 65 pound braid at least 350-400 yards
@BassEveryDay Ik I’m super late but do you think 50 pound braid is enough?
@@glock_9ine956 yes
I just got into surf fish and I've had this question and what I came up with is look at your rod rating and reel rating and go with at least 300yrds . I have a 10.5 ft heavy rod with a 6500 spinning reel and 350yrds of 40#.
65 lb braid no more than 80lb or 30-40 lb mono for surf casting
@Landshark Outdoors great video thank you for making it. What main line lb test do you recommend for this rig? Mono/braid. Do you prefer one material over the other? Thank you for the help
Congrats on 7k man !
Thank you! Now lets get to 10k!
@@LandsharkOutdoors how about 500,000 ?! Congrats man
Not sure If you mentioned it but what poundage mainline is good for shark fishing from the shore
I use 50lb braid and I've got some decent sized sharks off the beach. A bigger issue is making sure you've got enough line on the reel so that you don't get spooled.
I’ve got 25-30lb mono but if you went 30-35lb braid you’d be able to have a lot of line on your reel so you don’t get spooled
i do the same rig except i just use a snap swivel on the main line to hold my sinker...any advantage to doing it with the regular swivel and length of mono? I'd imagine it keeps the bait off the water a little better but may be more likely to tangle especially while casting?
goata8 yea I didn’t think ab that it prolly gets tangled on itself a lot
Nice Job dude!!nEasy to understand... i will watch more.
This'll be good in October for Bull reds from the beach
You don't fish mono for the reds?
Great presentation thank you… Big supporter of your channel
Fantastic Video. Thank you sir for sharing. Greetings from Portugal.
hey viktor. I think that's how you spell your name I seen the one video you guys made your buddy was messing with you about the spelling lol. Anyway I just recently started getting into surf casting. Actually that's how I found your videos, trying to learn all I can about surf casting. I'm 34 and have fished all my life but surf casting hasn't been one type of fishing I ever got into till now. But I'm trying to figure out even after the mullet run is over if fishing for shark and or bigger fish is still good here. I kinda got into the surf casting a little late as you can tell. not many weeks left. Thanks
Thanks for that educational video!
Great video, super helpful 💯
why did you connect the rig directly to the line on the rod rather than use another swivel or other quick disconnect method. Sorry I'm a newbie to fishing. Loved the video btw.
Just got into surf fishing and saw you rig. Looks pretty good. Why cant/dont you just tie a single line to you weight? Looks like it would be less of a chance to get tangled.
Thanks for the helpful information and tips greatly appreciated.
enjoyed watching the video. great info. very detailed.
Good info. on how to make a shark rig. That could be a BIG FISH rig for any species.
Love your show I surf fish a lot in ft lauderdale and Miami area I hope to bump into you sometime
David Lora I bought a Penn slammer iii 8500 for $275 spoiled it with 500 yards 65 lbs power bro braid for $50- big water ugly stick 10” rod heavy for $75 connected the main line to a 125 lbs mono and 350 lbs swivel connected to a size 12 AFW double strands wire and size 9 circle hook
Great tutorial another awesome video
Big fan of your videos! I noticed you mentioned "single strand" wire. Would multiple strand also work ?
Single strand @ 200 lb vs 7 strand @200 lbs?
If it is nylon coated,just scratch it off with keys or knife?
Vic, Were you at the Longport jetty in New Jersey last weekend?
Hello I love the video so much I have one problem and the swivel won't pass the unie to unie knot ? Thanks !
Love that shark rig!
Spin tackle beach shark fishing video would be raw
When the blacktips run there will be plenty of those. Except more videos and more frequent uploads in the next few weeks!
Do you prefer to use mono or braid on your main line for these rigs?
thanks for the info very informative...wondering how many lbs test line do you generally use? thanks
Do you recommend using a shock leader or just tying it to the main line?
I noticed you don't use any adjustable floats on the wire part with the hook. Any reason for or against that idea? See a lot setup like that in tackle shops.
You got a new subscriber!
Hop on board!
Great video, very informative. Keep it up.
Thank you Julie.
Could I use a sinker slider with the same results?
Id like to see your spider weight lures
But I mean do small to medium sized sharks break off single barrel wire crimps? I hate trying to tie wire and I've caught a large sail catfish on crimps. Also sucks if 5/0 or 6/0 isn't enough, I've got a crap ton of them lol only one way to find out tho
Could I just tie the braid and mono leader to a swivel instead of connecting them line to line?
he said this is just a principle don't need to do exactly what he said
(Noob question): What main line should you use for shark fishing? (Weight strength, Length, Microfiber?) Thanks!
YoDeh! At least 40lb braid
At least 100lb mono
Or 200 lb braid
For big shark
I would recommend 40-65lb braid, you could use heavier braid but then it would just take away from line capacity and casting distance. Preferably a superline so you can fit more of it on the reel. 8 strands is better than 4 strands because of the added strength. I would recommend having at least 350 yards of line on your reel.
Great vid and very informative
This is an awesome video..Thanks man
Awesome video's man!
I am pretty new to shark fishing. I have caught a handful in the 6’ range. I have been fishing 65lb braid directly to a 3-4’ wire leader. Is that an issue? Would a section of mono and a shorter wire leader be an advantag? If so why? Just trying to learn. Any information would be greatly appreciated!
Awesome video and nice tips
Can someone help a beginner and let me know if the heavy mono connected to main line can successfully go through my guides onto spinning reel? I’ve only got 9 ft rods....
namtla20 I connected 24 feet of 125 lbs mono to 65 lbs braid with FG knot it’s very tiny and strong and it goes to my reel. The main trick here is to double size the knot with half hitches knots to hide the mono tagging and allow the knot to go through the rod eyes
(New to fishing) What are the pros and cons of this rig vs the Carolina rig?
These are basicly Carolina rigs and there really isn't a huge difference between the carolina and this rig. The only big difference is carolina rigs normally don't have wire while this rig does. Hope this helps 🙂
Also carolina rigs have a shorter distance between the swivel and the hook.
Ok please tell me you deal with a ton of bite offs. I have made this same rig and for the past few trips to Florida every shark has tailwhipped or somehow bit me off. Any help will be appreciated
What are some spinning surf rods you would recommend that don’t break the bank?
Hunter Stewart for plan surf with bait not shark ugly stick big water
whats the pros vs cons of using a haywire twist for your wire vs a double barrel and crimping it ?
Great vid, man. Earned my sub.
Welcome aboard bro
thanks for the tip, will do!
What do think about #15 AFW? How big of a chunk do you use on your hook
