Default Re: blackfish rigs

No swivels. No slider hooks. All that extra crap is just more stuff for the divers to clean house on in the wrecks. I use 60lb power pro with a 40lb top shot tied with an Albright knot. Top shot is about 2x the length of my 8ft rod and 3-4 cranks around the reel. Tie a loop at the end of the top shot for sinker and a few inches up attach my snelled size 3 Virginia hooks. No dropper loops no double hooks. Just a simple single hook rig works every time. (When the fish want to chew that is)
