Pre-Rigged 18″ UV Tandem Sword Rig
Built for daytime swordfish deep dropping, the fully rigged 18-inch Hogy Perfect Sword Eel delivers a durable, deployment-ready alternative to frozen bait. Its inline-molded tandem rig eliminates open cuts and glued seams, while a specially tuned soft-plastic blend produces a fluid, serpentine action without sacrificing toughness.
The UV-infused body and heavy iridescent glitter finish create a visible, meal-sized profile at depth. Tandem 9/0 Mustad 7691S Knife Point hooks are connected with flexible, bluewater-grade braided cable, providing big-game strength while allowing the entire bait to bend and swim naturally.

Julia Churchill –
This rig works well in deep water for swordfish. The tandem setup keeps it stable and the movement is natural. No need to thaw or prepare bait. Easy to deploy and stays intact during the drop.
Joanne Arnold –
Great alternative to frozen bait. The UV finish stands out in the water column. The soft plastic moves like a real eel and attracts fish effectively.
Andrew Bond –
I’ve used this in multiple offshore trips. It holds up well under pressure and the hooks stay secure. The bend and action are smooth and realistic.
