Quick take
A DIY kit to build custom pompano rigs with foam floats, circle hooks, and stainless swivels suited for surf fishing.
The AGOOL Pompano Rig Making Kit packs the parts for a 210-piece set into one plastic box: floats, ball bearing swivels, duo-lock snaps, circle hooks and beads. It suits anglers who want to tie their own two-hook pompano rigs for surf fishing and set the trace lengths to match the water. Rigs like these usually run a 20 to 30 lb leader with a 2 to 4 ounce pyramid sinker.
Best for
- Pompano and other small-mouth species in the surf
- Building customized rigs for specific tide and wind conditions
- Anglers who prefer tuning rig length and hook spacing
Skip if
- You want pre-tied rigs ready to fish; buy standard pompano rigs
- You are new to rigging; the instructions require tying knots under tension
Strengths
- Circle hooks reduce gut-hooking and are barbless for easy release
- High-density foam floats keep baits suspended above the bottom
- Swivels prevent line twist when casting and retrieving
Trade-offs
- Building 25 rigs from one kit is labor-intensive and requires knot skill
- Small hook sizes and pieces are fiddly to assemble in wind
- The kit does not include line; you supply 25 to 55 lb leader per rig
