Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up, thread your rig line through the large eye of the bayonet and secure it with a reliable knot such as the grinner or blood knot. Ensure the bayonet is positioned so that the hair is the appropriate length for your target species. When working with extremely hard hookbaits, ensure you are pushing straight down along the axis of the bayonet to prevent unnecessary stress on the wire. After each session, rinse the bayonets with fresh water if used in saltwater or silty environments to prevent corrosion. Store them in an organized tackle box or a small container to protect the sharp points and keep them separated from other line-damaging equipment.
