Tailor Surf Fishing Rigs

Surf Tailor Rigs

Designed specifically for surf fishing, these rigs are perfect for targeting Tailor while keeping bait presentation neat and tangles to a minimum.

Featuring a single-dropper paternoster design, each rig is fitted with three ganged Gamakatsu Gangster Hooks connected by small 60lb swivels. This setup is ideal for presenting whole pilchards and other baitfish naturally in the surf while providing excellent hook-up rates.

The single-dropper configuration helps reduce tangles during casting and retrieves, making these rigs a reliable choice for beach anglers chasing fast-moving predators.
