Mako sharks are big, tough fish with some serious dentures. In this video, Capt. Conway talks about rigging fly tackle for these awesome gamefish. Fourteen-weight rods, big reels, heavy leaders, wire bite tippets,.. all figure in to the equation, as do strong, reliable knots.
You’ll want to use only premium tackle, like rods and reels from Orvis and fly lines from Scientific Anglers to do battle with Makos!
