Illustrated in these pictures are two different ways in which you could rig a 200gram stickbait for trolling:-
Firstly shown is a lure rigged with an wner 10/0 Jobu on the tail and on the belly we have, 2 x 11/0 Owner SJ-51, connected with a split ring-swivel-split ring, the reason for rigging this lure like this is to lower the hooks a fraction down the belly to allow them to be situated in the exact bite zone, as well as being free to move a little when Billfish bill strike the lure. We found on our charters that this gave us a near 100% better hook up rate, especially for Wahoo.To keep the belly hooks from fowling up together we use a small electrical tie.
In the second picture is how we would rig a stickbait for the purpose of Billfishing, we have an Owner 10/0 Jobu on the tail and on the belly we have gone for a 7/0 Shout Power Assist, our reason for this is that the belly hook is free to move around once again aiding in the hook up of Billfish. |

For this popper and many other poppers of this size we found two really successful methods for rigging them up:-
In the first description we have, for the tail hook of this popper used an Owner 9/0 Jobu, we connect this using two split rings connected together to ensure the hook point faces up when pulled through the water.this does seem to increase the hook up rate as the hook points appose each other at the time of the strike, on the belly we attach 2 x 11/0 Owner SJ-41, if you were going to be using heavy tackle, 130lb class you could then go 2 x 11/0 Owner SJ-51. To keep the hooks from fowling it is advised to use an electrical tie.
In the second illustration we have rigged an Owner 9/0 Jobu on a piece of assist cord long enough so the the hook is positioned somewhere around the belly of the lure and have connected it to the eye of the popper by looping it around. For the tail hook of this popper we used an Owner 9/0 Jobu, we connect this using two split rings connected together to ensure the hook point faces up when pulled through the water. If it were preferred we have found great success in using only the assist cord with one single Owner 9/0 Jobu hook hanging off the head of the popper and no tail hook at all.
