Firstly, Tony is spelt with a "Y", not an "I", unless you are talking in the female form, so Danny, I take this is just a typo on your part, as I am sure even you are not stupid enough to question my masculinity!! LOL
Never caught a hussar yet on one!!

Works a treat on Hussar - Just saying..............
Sorry about that Toniy, but seriously what I do is use the cheap knife jigs from anaconda that when on sale cost less than snapper sinkers. I don't put any bait on the knife jig and fish the paternoster rig like usual, if I lose my bait without hooking up I than jig the rig up about 20 meters, I have caught most species, you might say this gives you double the chance.
Don't be shy Ivanna wasn't.
Caught any RED FISH with this method Nanny
Yes Mate
Heaps of hussar, snapper and coronation trout.

Snelled rig floaters if targetting snapper or softies.
Did you drift or anchor up with your paternoster/Octa rig?

as smithy said snelled on a floater cant go wrong defently get the bigger snaps that way.
Do u have a diagram of this setup? Can u describe 'floater'?
N Armstrong depending on the current as we're I chace snaps I use a one ball sinker directly on to a snelled rig and if ya don't know how to tie snelled rigs just use gane hooks get a berley trail goin and feed that rig back down ya trail some times u have to feed heaps of line out some times not , but a little tip when floating when u hook up try to rember how much line is on spool so when u cast put again u know what area to work more as normally that's were the school is. Well that's what works for me any way . Cheers swanny
Don't be lulled into a false sense of security regarding paternostra rigs.........
while they are easy to make, & will bring most of your average fish up with no problems,
I have found that paternostra rigs will cost you the big fish, the one you didn't want to lose.......
NOW I only use big 3 way swivels...& don't seem to lose to many big fish anymore.
By the way, im jealous of you guys who can use an octojig as a sinker,
where we go its 1.5lb to start, then get heavier.
