15Packs Fishing Bait Rigs Set Saltwater Fishing Rigs with Sharp Hooks, Fish Skin, Barrel Swivel and Glow Beads Bottom Fishing Rigs for Freshwater Flounder Sea Bass Halibut

As I said this is basically a supersized Chesapeake sabiki, which is exactly what I was looking for. White perch had been hitting my sabiki rigs when trying to catch spot for bait, Rockfish (that's what we call migratory stripped bass in the Chesapeake Bay) behave similar to white perch but on a larger scale. This rig is definitely the right size hook and right weight line for keeper (20"+ ) Rockfish and the hooks are a kinda modified point non-offset circle hook which is what Maryland regulations require for use with live or cut bait or chumming in the bay. Only reason I haven't given 5 stars is the packaging. They tangle on the way out but given the price point I guess they weren't going to pack it like a traditional sabiki. I would recommend one of those foam boards to put some on so they straighten out because the main line and leaders have alot of memory. If I buy more it will just be for a color switch up because this is basically like a yr supply.

I have caught allot of fish on these. Couple of issues. They seem to fray easier than the other ones. Have had a couple where the hook wasn't fully formed. Otherwise I would of gave it a higher rating. I would recommend these to be used where your worried about loosing an expensive setup.

Product works well

These are mis-labeled - If they sold them as rock cod rigs, they'd sell 10x as many of them, I am sure! I stumbled across these while searching for actual sabiki (bait-catching) rigs, and figured I'd give them a try. Boy am I glad I did!!! For this price, I will never hand-tie another double dropper loop again!We fish the central coast and northern Channel Islands of California, and these are GREAT for bottom fishing - I have used them with both squid strips and live bait and have done well. The circle hooks are great, especially for ling cod - you don't have to worry about "setting" the hook - just wait patiently after you feel the first tug and let the ling swallow the whole bait... then when you feel a bit more tugging, slowly wind him up.With regular mustad type bait hooks, I usually have to run a "stinger" treble hook to make sure I don't lose ling cod - but with these rigs, my catch rate is 100% so far. (though I've only used them on 2 trips at this point).I don't know if it is coincidence, but they also seem to catch bigger fish (though not always) than my buddies fishing the same spots and the same time with the same bait, but unfeathered double dropper loops.The hooks are plenty strong for rockfish and ling cod, but I don't think the hooks would stand up to an accidental yellowtail or white seabass (as has happened to me a few times before!).I also like the fact that there is just a loop at the bottom for attaching your weight - easier than dealing with a snap swivel, especially with cold, wet hands!

Caught rock fish and calico with squid great rig works amazing

I use this rigs to fish for rockfish and lincods. It's well built, What I like about this type of hooks they don't snag on the rocks. I used pline Riggs previously When I Hooked a decent sized fish the pline would snap. Never had any problems with this rig.

These rigs really work for me. I went for the first time in life to near coast of Santa Cruz for rockfishing. And that day I not only reeled in the most rockfish but the largest one (close to 3 pounds). At first I am a little worried about the round hook that may not as effective as the oedinary ones to hook up, but apparently it worked fine.My only complain is that the hooks and hardware loops are a little rusty after my first saltwater trip. But for a little more than $1 a piece, what more should I expect? Will buy more in the future.

These hooks are great, I catch a lot of fish with them. The pink is the only color I use.
