Field Notes

Use these wide-gap assist jig hooks to upgrade or replace the hook set on an existing jig, swimbait, or other lure that benefits from a trailing assist. They’re typically rigged so the hook can swing freely and improve cornering/landing hookups during the retrieve or when the lure is bumped off cover.

Pros

  • Wide-gap design for better hook penetration
  • Assist hook configuration improves landing hookups
  • Coastal Black finish helps reduce visibility

Cons

  • Hook size is large (5/0 or 7/0), so it may be overkill for small baits/fish
  • Assist hooks can foul on certain lure shapes/cover if not tuned
