Quick take
Rigged assist hooks with PE braid for jigging large tuna, snapper, and offshore species.
This 4/0 pack of 20 single assist hooks pairs a stainless steel hook with a length of braided PE line. The braid lets the hook move independently of the jig or lure it is rigged to, which suits saltwater anglers after halibut and tuna. Each hook has a loop at the line end for quick attachment to a lure or ring.
