Flasher Rig Buyers Guide

As you will have now gathered, we sell a few styles of rigs. Now you will learn about the differences and advantages of each rig style.

Black Magic Bleeding Pilchard Rigs

Make an attractive mix of pilchard colours and come rigged on either a 4/0 or a larger 6/0 sized suicide hook. Models with Suicide hooks like the bleeding pilchard work best on a stiffer rod. They’re perfect for the angler that likes to feel and strike.

Bleeding Pilchard rigs are ideal for fishing from the beach, rocks, or offshore on your local reefs.

Black Magic Snapper Snatcher Rigs

Here at Fishing Tackle Shop, we stock the best selling snapper snatcher models. Those rigs are the 5/0 and 8/0 Snapper snatcher in original colours.

The 5/0 Snapper snatcher is rigged on black magic tough trace 80lb and completed using a 15kg Black magic barrel swivel. For the 8/0 model, the swivel still rates at 15kg, but the line is 100lb tough trace.

Like the bleeding pilchard, Snapper Snatches are also ideal for beach, rock and offshore boat fishing. However, the significant difference is the use of circle hooks.

It’s no secret that circle hooks are better for the preservation of fish. Circles, in most cases, avoid gut hooking and work exceptionally well for offshore fishing. You do not need to strike the fish, let the fish hook itself.

How to Use Black Magic Flasher Rigs

To use either the snapper snatcher or bleeding pilchard rigs, tie your main line onto the swivel at the top of the fishing rig, then attach an appropriate size sinker or jig onto the loop at the bottom and it is ready to fish.

If desired, a small amount of bait can be added to increase the appeal. Once rigged, drop the Black Magic Bleeding pilchard flasher fishing rig down to the appropriate depth and lift and drop the rod tip in sluggish motions.

When using at night or in deep water, charge up the lumo bead on the Black Magic Bleeding Pilchard or Snapper Snatcher fishing rig by leaving in the sun or under a bright light for a few minutes. For the ultimate in charging up glow beads-shining a UV torch on the beads will get them glowing extremely bright in no time.

If you choose to use the Black Magic Flasher Rigs from the beach, we suggest using them with Star sinkers to give you maximum grip in the sand. The extra grip provided by the star sinker assist in holding your rig firm with the added benefit of a reduction in chance of tangle.

Off the beach, the flashers work exceptionally well with chunks of pilchard, tuna, mackerel, mullet or squid.
