It is designed for light jigging and slow-pitch jigging with small metal jigs and other slim artificial lures, especially in saltwater. The supplier also describes freshwater predator lure use, so select a hook size that suits your lure and intended fish.
Size 1 contains 4 pieces, sizes 1/0, 2/0 and 3/0 contain 3, and sizes 4/0 and 5/0 contain 2. Each rig has two assist hooks. Choose the hook size for your setup first, then compare pack quantities when deciding how many packs you need.
The fluorocarbon core stiffens the spliced braided leader and keeps the hooks away from the lure. This reduces tangling during jigging, but the supplier does not claim that tangles are impossible, so still check the rig before use.
The supplier lists approximately 59 kg for sizes 1 through 2/0 and 90.7 kg for sizes 3/0 through 5/0, separately from the fluorocarbon core rating of approximately 3.6 kg for sizes 1 through 2/0. Do not treat the higher figure as the core strength when comparing variants.
Use pliers or a hook remover to handle the sharp points, secure them when not in use and store the rig dry in a hook box. The tin coating provides corrosion protection, but damaged or rusted hooks must still be replaced. Keep them out of reach of children and pets.

This ready-to-use rig carries two assist hooks for light jigging and slow-pitch jigging. It complements small metal jigs and other slim artificial lures, particularly for saltwater predator fishing. A spliced braided leader with a fluorocarbon core stiffens the rig and keeps the hooks away from the lure to reduce tangling. The supplier also describes use with freshwater predator lures.
Extremely sharp points help the hooks penetrate when a fish strikes a falling jig, an important part of slow jigging. The TLC (Technical Locking Curve) design supports hook setting and helps hold the fish, while reducing the chance of the hook opening under load. UV (ultraviolet) Krystal Flash tinsel adds underwater visibility to the presentation.
The range covers sizes 1, 1/0, 2/0, 3/0, 4/0 and 5/0. Match the hook size to the lure and intended fish rather than choosing by pack count. Size 1 comes in a pack of 4 pieces, sizes 1/0 through 3/0 in packs of 3, and sizes 4/0 and 5/0 in packs of 2. Every rig has two hooks, which is separate from the stated pack quantity.
The supplier lists a strength rating of approximately 59 kg for sizes 1, 1/0 and 2/0, and approximately 90.7 kg for sizes 3/0, 4/0 and 5/0. These ratings are separate from the fluorocarbon core rating, which is approximately 3.6 kg for sizes 1, 1/0 and 2/0. Listed weights are 4.13 g (1), 4.05 g (1/0), 4.83 g (2/0), 7.33 g (3/0), 5.67 g (4/0) and 7.56 g (5/0).
The TI (Tin) coating provides corrosion protection for marine use. Inspect the hooks and connections before fishing, and replace damaged or corroded hooks. Handle sharp points with pliers or a hook remover, cover them during transport and store the rig dry in a secure hook box. Keep hooks away from children and pets, and use them only for fishing in accordance with local rules.
