They are particularly well suited to boat anglers bottom fishing for snapper and other reef species, whether fishing bays, offshore reefs or deeper water. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe range also suits experienced anglers who appreciate quality hooks and components but want the convenience of a pre-tied rig, as well as less experienced anglers looking for a simple and effective way to get their bait into the strike zone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePre-Tied Two-Hook Paternoster Rig    \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Ghostpoint Snapper Flasher Rig uses a proven two-hook paternoster configuration with two separate hook droppers positioned along the leader. The layout allows two baits to be presented above the sinker while keeping the rig simple and easy to fish, making it an excellent option for bottom fishing for snapper and a wide range of reef and bottom species.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGhostpoint Offset Octopus Circle Hooks    \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach rig is tied using Bite Science Ghostpoint Offset Octopus Circle Hooks, combining a circle hook profile with an offset point to promote strong, consistent hook-ups around the corner of the jaw. The Octopus-style shank also provides excellent bait control when fishing common snapper baits including pilchards, squid, fish strips and other natural baits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChemically Sharpened Ghost Point   \u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGhost Point technology provides a chemically sharpened hook point designed for fast, clean penetration. This gives anglers the same hook technology found throughout the dedicated Bite Science Ghostpoint hook range in a completely pre-tied, ready-to-fish rig.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNanoslip Hook Coating    \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Ghostpoint hooks feature Bite Science NanoSlip coating, providing a low-friction finish to assist hook penetration while also improving corrosion resistance. This is particularly valuable when the rigs are regularly used in saltwater environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBelgian High-Carbon Steel Hook Core    \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGhostpoint Offset Octopus Circle Hooks are manufactured using high-quality Belgian high-carbon steel, providing consistent strength and controlled flex for dependable performance when fighting powerful fish.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFlasher-Dressed Hooks    \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFlasher material is tied directly around each hook to add movement, colour and visual attraction around the bait. The flasher continues to move in the water and provides an additional visual trigger that can help attract the attention of snapper and other bottom and reef species.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLumo Beads\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLumo beads positioned above the dressed hooks provide an additional visual element around each bait presentation. This is particularly useful when fishing deeper water or reduced-light environments where additional visibility can help fish locate the rig.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQuality Rolling Swivel\u003c\/strong\u003e    \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA rolling swivel at the top of the rig provides a simple connection point for the angler's main line or leader while helping reduce line twist as the rig moves in current or during retrieval.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCustomisable Sinker Connection  \u003c\/strong\u003e  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe leader below the lower hook is deliberately left without a permanently fitted sinker attachment, allowing the angler to choose how they want to rig it. The leader can be tied into a loop for quickly looping sinkers on and off, fitted with the angler's preferred clip or swivel, or tied directly to the sinker. This keeps the rig versatile across different fishing styles and sinker systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQuality Hand-Tied Leader\u003c\/strong\u003e    \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach rig is hand-tied using quality leader and components to provide a strong, dependable ready-made rig. Three leader strengths are matched to the different hook sizes, progressing from 50lb on the 5\/0 through 60lb on the 6\/0 to 80lb on the 8\/0.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThree Hook and Leader Options  \u003c\/strong\u003e  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe range is available in 5\/0 with 50lb leader, 6\/0 with 60lb leader and 8\/0 with 80lb leader. This allows anglers to select their rig according to bait size, target species and fishing conditions, from general snapper fishing through to larger baits and heavier reef applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReady to Fish    \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe rig comes pre-tied with its swivel, leader, two hook droppers, Ghostpoint hooks, flashers and lumo beads already assembled. The angler simply connects the rig, selects their preferred method of attaching a sinker, adds bait and starts fishing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this rig only for snapper? \u003c\/strong\u003e       \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. Snapper are a primary target for the Ghostpoint Snapper Flasher Rig, but the two-hook paternoster configuration is equally useful for many other bottom-feeding and reef species. Depending on the hook and leader size selected, the rigs can be used for species such as snapper, morwong, emperor, nannygai, coral trout and other reef and bottom fish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I attach my sinker?   \u003c\/strong\u003e     \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe leader below the lower hook is intentionally left without a fixed sinker connection so you can choose the method that suits you. You can tie the leader into a loop and loop your sinker on and off, attach your preferred sinker clip or swivel, or simply tie the leader directly to your sinker. This also makes it easier to customise the rig to suit different sinker styles and fishing conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhich hook size should I choose?   \u003c\/strong\u003e     \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 5\/0 rig with 50lb leader is an excellent general-purpose option for moderate bait sizes and everyday snapper fishing. The 6\/0 with 60lb leader steps up in hook and leader size for larger baits and heavier fishing, while the 8\/0 with 80lb leader is suited to substantially larger bait presentations and heavier reef and offshore applications. Hook size should ultimately be selected according to the bait being used, target species and fishing conditions.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bite Science","offers":[{"title":"Ghostpoint Snapper Flasher Paternoster Rig 5\/0 Acid Blood","offer_id":45213606281424,"sku":"38610","price":8.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Ghostpoint Snapper Flasher Paternoster Rig 6\/0 Acid Blood","offer_id":45213606314192,"sku":"38611","price":8.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Ghostpoint Snapper Flasher Paternoster Rig 8\/0 Acid Blood","offer_id":45213606346960,"sku":"38612","price":8.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0648\/1956\/0656\/files\/38610-0.jpg?v=1791865998","url":"https:\/\/www.bitescience.com.au\/products\/bite-science-ghostpoint-snapper-flasher-paternoster-rigs","provider":"Bite Science","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
