Description
Single or double assist hooks, especially with heavy-duty hooks and cords. Hooks like 20# Blue Assist Hooks are commonly used for mechanical jigging. They are particularly effective when targeting strong species like kingfish, rock fish, tuna, etc. They’re durable enough to handle large fish on their own without needing much movement. Assist hooks for fishing can include J-style hooks, curved point hooks, and double hooks. They can be used for vertical jigging, slow pitch jigging, and more. The green color will glow in the dark and provide extra enticement for fish to strike.
Assist hooks are often rigged with a line or chord made of Kevlar or Dyneema. These materials are available in different strengths and thicknesses. They can also be used as a substitute for treble hooks. Since fish typically strike the head, a top-only assist hook setup is ideal for mechanical jigging, especially when chasing species. Unlike traditional hooks that attach directly to the jig, assist hooks hang from a flexible cord, giving the hook more freedom to move.
20# Blue Assist Hooks Usage
These hooks are the perfect match for knife jigs. They are connected to the top of the jig where they are less likely to foul or get caught up in structure below. Double hooks are normally used for slow pitch jigging, with hooks at the head of the jig but are equally effective deep jigging. The twin setup increases your chances of a successful hook-up, especially in styles where the fish hits on the fall.
Assist hooks generally consist of two single hooks. Thanks to their flexible braid connection to the lure, they offer greater freedom of movement than a conventional single hook. When striking, the hook is more effective, as the single point of attachment ensures better penetration
