Depending on where you fish and what your targeted species might be, these three trolling rigs can increase your ability to catch a wide variety of fish. I use a mono leader when dolphin, billfish, or tuna are the most likely in an area and wire leader for wahoo and kingfish or just a more broad-spectrum approach. Match the hardware in your rigging to the line class and pressures you will be using. I often use these rigs on the East Coast but have used them in the Bahamas, Mexico, Panama, and Costa Rica. The hardware may vary for a specific area, but the principle rigs are the same. Give it a try on your coast!
