How To Rig SLAPSTIX for BIG FLATHEAD
Рет қаралды 15,803
Күн бұрынThese big Slapstix have changed the Flathead fishing game for me. Fishing in The Flathead Classic for the first time this year and watching my brother learn the technique and then boat his PB with these lures was a special moment. If you haven't fished with these big baits or you're chasing that big flathead experience, give em a go!
For the best big Flathead footage you'll ever watch, get The Kayakers Guide - Giant Flathead in The Shallows Film

Join me for a mind blowing adventure into the shallows chasing Australia's most targeted estuary sports fish, the Dusky Flathead... But not just any Duskies, I'm revealing the GIANTS!
These are the LEGENDS OF THE FLATS, the class of fish that have their stories told and retold amongst families and fisherman forever.
In this DOWNLOADABLE VIDEO, I share some of the most exciting and effective approaches to hooking these beasts, in hope of helping you tune your own game to make these dream sized Duskies a reality!

Awesome video mate. Can't seem to get the lure gliding as horizontally as you do. Should I increase the weight of the stinger hook to get the balance better? Or is it just my technique? Rigged it up the same way you did here.

How do you stop them twist locks from ripping out and destroying plastics? Another legend video
@mylurebox 4 жыл бұрын
Cheers mate. They generally hold tight for me and allow the hook to be pulled out and move with the fish. Those twist locks are genius for mine.

Might have to try some smaller ones, have been trying out some owner pre rigged ones. Cheers again

Great video John, I'm going to give these a go. Where to you buy the decoy hooks from and roughly what size twist locks to you use, as there seems to be 15mm, 17mm, 19mm and 22mm sizes ?
@mylurebox 4 жыл бұрын
Hey mate. The hooks are also available through VMC and are now being stocked in good Lure tackle stores 7/0 heavy duty wide gap is what you’re lookin for. I think the smaller 2 sizes of twist locks would be ok. The big ones for sure are a bit funny to rig.

Mate that’ll do it for sure. Great idea. :) keeps the rear treble in and doesn’t start cutting the tail of the bait up where the treble inserts. Good play
