01FISHING TACKLE
Concealed pins for clean game lure rigs
A small, precise component that holds the integrity of your trolling setup together. These Swimerz shackles sit quietly within the rig, ensuring that heavy game lures move through the water without snag or drag.
Designed for anglers preparing their own double or single hook rigs, they offer a secure connection point that withstands the pull of large fish while keeping the tackle presentation clean.
MATERIALS
Corrosion-resistant grade 316 steel
Crafted from grade 316 stainless steel, these shackles are built to endure the harsh marine environment. The alloy provides robust durability against saltwater exposure, maintaining its structural integrity over repeated cycles of use. This material choice ensures the shackle remains strong even when subjected to the constant tension of heavy game fishing.
DESIGN
Concealed slotted pin head
The pin head is slotted and positioned to remain hidden within the shackle body. This specific geometry prevents skirted lures and leader lines from catching on protruding edges. By eliminating these potential snags, the rig maintains a streamlined profile as it travels through the water, reducing friction and unwanted noise that might spook wary fish.
FUNCTION
Minimising twist in heavy rigs
The flat pin design serves a critical function in managing line behaviour during trolling. It helps minimise line twist, which can weaken knots and reduce sensitivity over long distances. This makes the shackle particularly suitable for heavier rig configurations where stability and consistent movement are essential for attracting larger species.
DETAILS
