Thread: Snapper rig and advice for Kenepuru area

I snell the hooks together facing the same way, 5-6/0 is the size I use depending on how thick the mullet or Kahawai strip is.. Hook the bottom hook in first... In the Manukau I get a fair few Stingrays with it as well

I use the same rig for pillies with the top hook in the head ...3/4 or whole pillies

I have a shorter version of that hook tool and its brilliant for removing gut hooked rays...even use it for lip hooked ones as you dont need to bring it in the boat
