Hey guys.

 What are your best methods for rigging up Jigs for big troppo fish with fangs???

Right from the jig choice to hook & assist cord to knots, leaders & split/solid rings?.

Some pics of ya catches would be wicked too!

Cheers

Doggies are tail biters so consider hook below jig also
as dead as dead is
