Quick take
A 3-hook deep-drop rig with glow-in-dark squid, 400-pound line, and circle hooks for offshore bottom fishing.
This is a pre-tied deep drop rig with three 8/0 circle hooks, each dressed with a glow squid. It is built for bottom fishing in deep water for tilefish, snapper and grouper. The glowing skirts help draw attention in the dark depths, and the rig arrives ready to clip on and send down.
