What is the best swordfish bait?

Whats the best sword bait and hook style?

Hey mate, I only use inline circle hooks. As for baits I find the best swordfish bait to be Skip Jack Tuna or Kingfish belly strips rigged in our SwordPro skirts as they look a lot more presentable to the fish and you will see this in the water when you test your bait to see how it swims, however I have caught them on everything from live Jack Macs to frozen dead baits. Fresh is best.

Link to some info on hooks and baits here .  

Also a link to our rigging videos here. 

 

Cheers,
Luke
