That is one of the best ways to rig flat falls.
I rigged mine the same way and never had a issue with them after that.
Lost 5 fish on 1 trip due to factory set up chew through.
Ren, glad to see you've had some actual REAL world experience with exactly why we rig them this way. Congratulations and thanks for the excellent comment!

I've never had a bluefin chew threw the Kevlar assist cord, but rather the straighten out the hooks! Crazy cows!
Really like your outlook on fishing
and fishing tackle equipment .
THANKS, TIGHT LINES !!!
Thanks Billy, ur the man.
Picked one at my local fishing shop heading down into mexican waters week from Wednesday cant wait to try it out
Great looking rigs

Glad you're finding value Israel, lots more to come!
Awesome vid as always bud
Love the content!
Its looking like you have a shop there, my rod room is a bit more congested but its only 8'x 14' it fits my lathe. dryers and rods.
Thanks for the info on rigging up for the big girls
wishing you luck out there Marty!!! #AimHighDREAMBig
Hey, just wanted to thank you for all the info you guys put out there! This channel and a few others on RUclips are super informative and helped me land my first bft, a cow too add to that, last month. Wrecked my reel, but was a trip of a lifetime, keep up the great work and excited to see what this years season to bring!
Congratulations! That's something to be proud of!
@@BigBassDreams Thank you!
Are you using a wind-on leader for this setup? I'm assuming your just running a swivel clip on the end of your mono topshot to a crimped loop (w' chafe tube) that's on the end of that rigged flatfall ? So that FF you just made has a crimped loop in the end of the flouro? That you connect to your mainline (mono?) with a snap swivel, is that correct?
Dang, that gear makes my swimbait combo look like a Dock Demon 😂. I just got a couple of Lucky Craft CIF 110's for rockfish, lingcod and surf perch, bass fishing is great but saltwater fishing in the winter on the Barview jetties is hard to get away from.
Thank you for the video! Do you recommend anything beyond those Shimano flat falls? Have you guys tried and liked any knife jigs or anything else? How many grams (The jig you're using looks like a 250 g)
Aint playing around with that 200lb test. Great content
New subscriber from Louisiana. I am looking to add drop jigging to my arsenal. Doc
do you have a link to purchase the tube you placed on the line before the crimp?
For those Mustad hooks, is it better to get the stainless steel ones or the Duratin ones?
I cannot find “67691” model hooks
Only the 7691
Is it the same?
Nice video -- I don't have all that heavy gear and what not to rig up flat falls like that. I suppose if the bluefin are here permanently I'll have to get into it, since they can only get bigger, which will really tax our gear.
Excellent video Billy! Can you drop a link to the All Falls Down Remix that starts playing @ 5:40
What's the name of the flat fall at 0:48 in the video? Is this the Shimano super glow?
Them girls be hooked!
Is that a stainless steel 7691 hook? Why not a jobu hook? What are the advantages of using that hook?
I like your style, really cool vid! You have another good video within this one ☝️ wanna hear it...... when you start the crimping process, hit the slow mo and share some line diameter to crimp sizes along with your preferred crimper😉
how do you tie that 200lb to your leader?
What give aways let me rep a hat😂 love the vids big dogg keeping it g as always real ass content
Haha, I keep finding myself coming back to these vids and learning new stuff. What lb backing do you use for the talica 20s and 25s?
80-100lb depending how much line capacity you want 👊
I've had the rings on the jig break. Started putting my assist hook in the chaffing spring loop. Just in case.
Interesting Robert! Something to think about
Hey bro, where are you located? I'd love to swing by and purchase a few of those flat falls on my next charter!
What size flat fall is this?
Just curious have you tried the Tady 4/0 chrome with glow back for the Bluefin? I have had success with it on a night bite years ago(before the cows came into play)
That's an old staple but honestly have never seen much sucess with those blue/chrome patterns
@@BigBassDreams I have one that is all chrome with a glow back, was thinking of having it rigged up. I've seen guys using the Ahi Assault jigs also. You definitely put in the time hunting for the big Bluefin so I definitely take your opinion seriously because I know its based on experience. Thanks for input.
Oh man I'm standing on the beach infront of where I live in san clemente looking out on the water just dying to get my first tuna. Im 38 and fished my whole life but never been tuna fishing. This is the year
Good luck and have fun!!!
What!?? hahha, you catch one yet?
Tight Lines!!!
Great info! How do you normally fish those jigs? Just let it sink to the bottom then reel all the way up?
Figure out the depth the fish are holding at and sink down to that level. Jig up a hundred feet, sink, repeat.
@@BigBassDreams Awesome thanks for replying!
I used the same jig you showed in the package on the Islamorada Hump the other day. After fighting a big AJ for five minutes, I reeled up a jig with no hooks.
This will be my new rigging technique. Thanks
Is that even enough hook bro?
Awesome tips, love that Kanye west/Lauren hill edit 😁
🎉🎉🎉
Great videos brotha. I can’t wait to get my first BF
did you get one yet?
Where can I find ur store. Lol
how do you tie that 200 lb mono to your main line
tied to a swivel David.
Interesting. Is there not a solid ring there at the top because it's straight to a swivel. Any and all split rings scare me with big fish. I now use a Owner Ultra Split rings in 8-9mm that are 300+lb test but I still like a solid ring. I rig flat falls with 2 jigging master 15/0's for big tuna. Recently I've been rigging both hooks on a large JM figure 8 at the top with one hook the length of the jig. Just peace of mind not to worry about the split ring. Obviously I've had a couple bad experiences with heavy duty split rings opening or breaking ha so I just don't play with it at all anymore.
And I don't use Kevlar, PE, anything like that for assist cords on big tuna they chew it up. 49 strand nylon coated wire not sure the test but is 2mm crimp. Sometimes I'll add a 2 inch squid skirt to the hooks and it's amazing how often it's that hook that ends up in the tunas mouth. Tight lines!
Great insight Jeff. Appreciate you sharing with us!
@@BigBassDreams there are lots of ways to catch big fish i think it comes down to what you have confidence in. Fishing in general I think is a trial and error game but videos like yours help people avoid the same mistakes we've made! I lost a couple hundred dollars worth of jigs to nice yellowfin before I said enough with the 900lb Kevlar. Don't want others to do the same!
So, do you use split rings or no? At the top of your post you say "I now use Onwer Ultra ... 300lb split rings" and at the bottom you say "I've had bad experiences with heavy duty split rings .... so I just don't play with it all anymore". If you don't use split rings, how do you attach the hooks to the jig ?? Solid ring and silver solder ??
What size/type crimps did you use?
Mono style crimps, we believe these were Izorline rated for 200-300lb leader.
Is my tatula 300 good for tarpon and tuna?
It would probably work in a pinch but a Lexa HD would be better suited for long term use on bigger game fish.
Billy, curious why you choise #7 and #8 split rings. They seem small. These are 80 and 120lb rated. Yet your ball bearing swivel is 500 lbs. Lol. I guess if your line is 80-100 lb, it doesn't matter much on teh split ring? And maybe you just want a small split ring.
What lb split rings do you use
#9 170Lb and UP.
Goals just for that wall omg you can come on my boat anytime lol 😂.. 😮🙃
Those are some beefy split ring pliers, what is the brand?
thank you
I want that same info. Find a truly great set of split ring pliers is like finding a hot chick that isn't insane.
So when are you and Billy going to start the fishing dream team? One for saltwater one for freshwater. You two would be unstoppable.
We kind of already have...more content to come!!!!
Is that 150lb flouro leader your using? What mainline are you running to that on the Tali25?
200-300lb leader 80-100lb mainline
Thx bro!
@@andrewrollins4898 4-6 feet
You didn't show what you put on the other end of the line .
lol i wish could aford that
Hey bro can I go fishing with you help you pay for gas and bait
How long of a 200 lb leader are you running
about the length of a big fish, 6 feet or so
@@BigBassDreams thank you is it the same length for flyline rigs also
Yes, roughly. You don't want a super long leader or gaffing the fish boatside becomes a problem LOL
To be honest I won’t because I have not seen if it’s worth my time so note to you if u want to grow your channel first don’t worry about subs and bells notifications wait a little into vids give before you receive but we will see
pure stoke
I did all that stuff down below and I didn’t win anything :\\
B
Mushroomhead on the tag end won't hold anything and the worst thing you can do to monofilament is heated it up now you weaken that 200lb
And don't crimp, swag
🤦🏻♂️
God damn. Wtf was that?! Terrible.
