Ron Thompson Mackerel Rig 1 Feather Trace
Instant Success at Sea with Ron Thompson Mackerel Feathers
The Ron Thompson Mackerel Rig 1 eliminates all bankside knot-tying, offering a ready-to-use solution perfect for boat angling or fishing from the pier. Mackerel are aggressive predators that patrol the ocean in massive schools hunting for baitfish. The primary fishing advantage of this pre-tied trace lies in its high-attract hook dressing. Each hook is tied with highly reflective materials and shimmering feathers that perfectly mimic the erratic flight profile of juvenile herring or sand eels under water. This triggers instant competitive responses from feeding mackerel, frequently resulting in multiple hook-ups per cast.
Heavy-Duty Components for a Flawless Bait Presentation
Featuring a total length of 145 cm and tied utilizing a dependable 0.30 mm monofilament main line, this trace is engineered to easily withstand the immense pressure of multiple hard-fighting sea fish. The rig comes equipped with 5 razor-sharp hooks in size 10, allowing you to cover a wide section of the water column on every retrieve. The branch lines (snoods) are strategically attached to reduce tangles during forceful distance casts or when jigging vertically from a charter vessel. The bottom of the rig features a heavy-duty swivel for rapid attachment of a sea lead or a heavy casting jig.
