RIGGING TIPS

The Unrigged Sumo Shrimp gives you total flexibility to match any target species or depth. Whether you’re fishing snaggy creeks, open flats or deep reefs, you can customise your setup in seconds.

RIGGING OPTIONS

  • Jighead: Perfect for open water or slow rolling across the bottom. Match head weight to depth or current.
  • Weedless: Use a worm hook or screw lock system for fishing tight into timber or mangroves.
  • Weighted EWG Hook: Great for shallow drains or slow-sink presentations. Keeps a level fall and natural look.
  • Exposed Hook Setup: Finely tune this set up with the Tungsten Balls as your weight. Great for shallow drains, slow-sink presentations and subsurface slow rolling. Keeps a level fall and natural look.

TUNING TIPS

  • Insert or remove tungsten balls from the body chambers to fine-tune sink rate and balance.
  • Add scent into the air pocket chamber to boost attraction and bubble trail.
  • Choose Glow + UV colours for low light or dirty water, and natural tones for clear conditions.

Pro Tip: Keep multiple weights rigged and ready and swap between light weedless and heavy jig setups to cover every zone fast.

TARGET SPECIES

ESTUARY
Barramundi | Threadfin | Mangrove Jack | Flathead | Mulloway

Perfect For: Working drains, snags, and flats with subtle presentations.
Pro Tip: Slow roll or twitch-pause retrieves near structure to trigger reaction bites.

INSHORE /REEF
Coral Trout | Sweetlip | Snapper | Cod | Trevally

Perfect For: Casting or dropping around reef edges and pressure points.
Pro Tip: Add tungsten for faster sink rates and better balance in current.

OFFSHORE
Red Emperor | Nannygai | Kingfish | Tuna | Mahi Mahi

Perfect For: Vertical jigging, deep drops and chasing pelagics on structure.
Pro Tip: Rig heavier for deep water and the Sumo’s bubble trail keeps it visible and in the strike zone.
