Advice on Sabiki Rigs - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

A couple suggestions, cut your sabiki in half. You don't need more than 3 hooks. Anyone who has ever had 5-6 on at a time knows it is a mess of tangles, and usually 2-3 don't last long after getting roughed up. And you will especially appreciate it if you get in to a school of 14 inchers. Tip #2, smash the barbs so once you get them onboard they come right off the hook and into the tank. Also helps when you accidentally hook yourself.
