Hand-tied pre-rigged circle hook rigs with snell knot for catfish on bottom and Carolina rigs.
This is a ten-pack of pre-tied circle hook rigs in size 2/0, built on high carbon steel hooks with a needle point. Each rig comes ready to tie to your main line, which suits bait fishing for catfish and other freshwater or saltwater species. It saves the time of snelling your own leaders before a trip.
