Designed for small baits, but not for small fish….the Slim Reaper is here!
Designed for baits in the 10-20cm (4-8 in) length range including pilchards and garfish (ballyhoo), it is strong, easy to use, fast to re-bait and incredibly effective when it comes to fishing for pelagic species.
Our Slim Reaper (with hooks and hardware), comes with:
- 1x Slim Reaper Rig (choice of head colour; pink, pearl white, clear with silver fleck, orange and blue with silver fleck)
- 1x Pink Tinsel-style Skirt on a 44lb Stainless Steel Wire Trace
- 1x J-hook linked to a Size 4 Treble Hook via split ring and swivel
The Slim Reaper will bring your dead bait back to life. The unique design creates a hyper realistic swimming motion that is highly consistent. Its most effective operating range is 3-5 knots (6-10 km/h) which makes it ideal for trolling behind kayaks, jet skis and boats. Faster speeds are possible but the longevity of the bait can be compromised as a result.
The small head and bib provide a discreet design, ideal for when the pelagic fish are finicky or picky. Despite the plastic construction of the head, the 2mm thick stainless steel through rod will keep you attached to the fish after hookup, no matter how hard the fight.
What makes the Reaper Rigs the best dead bait lure on the market? For one, the swimming motion is better and more consistent than rival lures. That makes it incredibly effective at attracting and catching fish. But that’s not its only advantage. It is also incredibly easy to use and fast to re-bait. A Grim Reaper-inspired scythe makes it simple to securely fit the dead bait to the rig. That means less time re-baiting and more time fishing when you’re out on the water. And the bait will also sit correctly in the rig and won’t spin in the water. The Slim Reaper is easier to use and more effective than any other trolling rig available on the market. And because it has been designed by Australians that love fishing, for Australians that love fishing, it is available at a fraction of the price of other imported trolling rigs.
Please note at this stage, all fully assembled Slim Reaper rigs come with pink tinsel style skirt.
