Hayabusa - S-531E Squid Bait Sabiki

The Hayabusa S-531E Squid Bait Sabiki is a premium Japanese-made rig specifically designed to target larger baitfish and small game fish in New Zealand waters. Unlike standard bait flies, this heavy-duty rig features realistic squid skirts that mirror the natural forage of species like large Jack Mackerel, Koheru, and Trevally. It is an essential tool for serious anglers looking to fill the live-bait tank quickly before chasing Kingfish or Marlin.

• Realistic Squid Profile – detailed plastic skirts mimic small squid to trigger aggressive strikes from fussy baitfish.
• Heavy-Duty Construction – built with a 40lb–60lb main line to handle larger by-catch like Snapper or Kahawai without breaking.
• Fluorocarbon Branch Lines – stiff, invisible traces keep hooks away from the main line to drastically reduce tangles.
• 3-Hook Configuration – shorter and easier to handle than standard 6-hook rigs, making it safer for boat use.
• High-Carbon Steel Hooks – chemically sharpened for instant penetration on hard-mouthed species.
