Ocean Angler - Sledger Rigs

The Ocean Angler Sledger Rigs introduce an innovative hybrid design to the New Zealand tackle market, seamlessly blending the vibrant attraction of a lure with the proven reliability of a bait rig. Built around a durable fluorocarbon trace and a surgically sharp, Teflon-coated Onahmutu hook, this rig is constructed to withstand the abrasive teeth of big Snapper and reef species. Whether you are dropping into deep workups or drifting over structure, the curly tails and built-in UV light properties provide an irresistible presentation. Hybrid Lure-Rig Design – Combines the visual appeal of an active lure with the trusted presentation of a bait rig to fool wary fish. Teflon-Coated Onahmutu Hook – Delivers maximum penetration on the strike and superior rust resistance for harsh saltwater conditions. Vibrant Curly Tails – Flutters erratically on the descent to mimic injured prey and provoke aggressive bites. Built-In UV Visibility – Enhances the rig's profile in deep water and low-light workup situations. Fluorocarbon Componentry – Offers high abrasion resistance against the sharp teeth and spikes of reef-dwelling species. Versatile Application – Perfectly suited for targeting New Zealand Snapper across reefs, drop-offs, and open water drifts.
