Flasher Rigs
Mustad's enhanced bait fishing systems
available Australia and New Zealand:
Big Red - Long Red - Demon Terakihi
Mustad's Flasher rigs turn routine bottom-bouncing into something special. The flasher material enhances the appeal of the bait as the angler jigs the rig up and down. Although these rigs can catch fish without bait, they are actually enhanced natural bait fishing systems and work best when used with natural bait.
Mustad has made its three Flasher rig models as user-friendly as possible. New purpose-built, re-usable packaging incorporates a foam winder for easy storage of rigs after use. The rigs are designed with trace and dropper lengths that make fishing easy. |
