queensland What Is The Best Way To Setup Trolling Rig

[Jason Mark]

Hi i am sort of new to game fishing but wanted to know what the best way to rig a skirted lure would be 

I brought 2 new tld 25's and have 15kg mono and then leader attached. 

I just don't know what the best way would be to attach the skirted lure, I also want the ease to change to a hard body diving lure. 

Can some please answer me in detail, because i am quite confused

If you search Pakula tackle and go their web site, there is many hours of viewing and written information for game fishing.

It's how I started.

Nice comment Drop Bear but, unfortunately I need tons more experience and time to become any where near a competent Game fisherman. I had some experience in NSW fishing for Yellowfin Tuna but, only started fishing for small black marlin off Cape  Moreton 4 years ago. @aussie123 has given heaps of tips and I will never know as much him.

It can be fun and also dangerous.

Here's a video of my first one.

Hi Jason,

Typically you would run a windon leader with a crimped snap swivel at the end. This allows for quick easy exchanges, you then have a skirt or hard body with 1-3meters of 120-400lb leader with your lure crimped on the end these vary depending on target species. I invested in a black magic rigging/crimping kit 12 odd years back and it has been a great way to learn all my own rigging.
