Quick take
Jigging assist hooks with spear-point BKK hooks and dyneema cord for saltwater vertical jigging.
Nomad Design's jigging assist hook comes as a pack of three in a 4/0 size, with BKK hooks, solid rings and Dyneema assist cord for rigging on a jig. It gives an angler a second hook to pick up fish that strike short of the main hook. It suits anglers who want a hook already set up for jig fishing.
Best for
- Jigging deep structure in saltwater
- Live bait jigging for mackerel and bonito
- Targeting pelagic fish near the bottom
Skip if
- Freshwater jigging; use standard jig heads
- Light tackle fishing on finesse dropshot rigs
Strengths
- BKK hooks are known for holding large fish
- Dyneema cord is extremely strong and resists fraying
