Specifically designed with pelagic target species in mind like Mako and Thresher Sharks these rigs present suspended baits off the bottom. With a float near surface or in the water column baits will appear more appetizing natural and last longer. To deploy attach preferred sinker method and drop to the side first while holding float. Once it has sank to the bottom kayak bait and float to the top and release it. Anglers will notice a bite by line slacking up or hearing a loud run and then it's time to wind and fight. Best for use with preferably breakaway style weights but also heavy Claw Sinkers. These Leaders are legal in California Texas and Florida.

Tips:
Rinse rigs after fishing for longer future use
Try to avoid use in busy or frequently traveled waters. Boat activity may result in cut offs
Use smaller baits than typically on bottom rigs as floats must be able to suspend them
Tie breakaway weights with 10-20lb Monofilament to keep baits in place depending on current to assure it separates when bit
Fish these rigs on heavy tackle as not to break off, leaving floats in sharks accidentally
