Pre-Rigged Red Emperor and Coral Trout Flies
Built tough and tested even harder than most recreational fishers will dream about.
Each fly comes with a 6/0 Reefmaster hook and is attached to a 120lb leader with a BFG Stinger.
Option available for ganged rigs: three 6/0 Reefmaster XHD hooks linked together using stainless steel swivels.
Currently considered the best rig for targeting larger red emperor fish.

Used this rig for a red emperor session and it held up well under heavy bites. The ganged setup gave extra security when the fish fought hard. Easy to set up and reliable in strong currents.
Sam Poole –
Felt more stable than previous rigs I’ve tried. The 120lb leader didn’t break during a long cast. Good for targeting larger fish in deeper reefs.

The swivels in the ganged rig prevented line twist. Caught a big coral trout that pulled hard. Would recommend to serious anglers targeting larger species.
