RIGGING

The Maniax Unrigged Paddle Tail lets you create the perfect setup for any species, depth, or terrain. Featuring Titan-RX TPE Elastomer bodyrig-ready hook slots and internal chambers for multiple uses it gives you total control over your presentation whether you’re fishing shallow weed beds or deep bends.

Rigging Options:

  • Jighead: Ideal for open water or deep slow-rolling.
  • Weedless: Use an EWG or screw-lock hook for tight cover and structure.
  • Treble/Stinger: Add for short-strike situations.
  • Exposed Hook: Fine-tune with Tungsten Balls for a level, natural fall.
  • Harness Rig: Pair with a wire harness or twin-hook setup for chasing larger predators like barra or cod. Delivers a secure connection and improved hook-up rate while maintaining natural swim action.

Tuning Tips:

  • Adjust Tungsten weights to perfect sink rate and posture.
  • Air pockets add lift, roll, and sonar visibility.
  • Reactor-UV colors pop in dirty water; use naturals in clear conditions.
  • Ultra-tough Titan-RX TPE body handles repeated strikes.

Pro Tip: Mix slow rolls with burn-pauses to trigger reaction bites.


TARGET SPECIES

FRESHWATER
Murray Cod | Barramundi 

Perfect For: Lakes, rivers and impoundments where fish are holding tight to structure or weed lines.
Pro Tip: Slow roll the Maniax along timber, rock bars or weed edges and that heavy tail thump and body roll trigger reaction bites from even the most inactive fish.

ESTUARY
Barramundi | Mulloway | Mangrove Jack | Flathead | Threadfin Salmon

Perfect For: Working drop-offs, drains and bridges where predators ambush from cover.
Pro Tip: Use natural tones on clear days and bright Reactor-UV colours in dirty water. The Rigged version’s breakaway system shines when targeting Barra or Jacks where it keeps fish pinned during aggressive head shakes.
