This rig works great for soft bait fishing. The bait loop keeps the minnows from slipping off the hook, even when I’m using a long leader. No more elastic needed. The 400lb version is strong and reliable in deep water.
Amanda Quinn –
I’ve used this rig for catfish and sturgeon fishing. The hook design with pinched barbs holds well, and the bait loop makes it easy to secure soft baits. A little more durable than standard rigs I’ve tried.

The ball bearing swivel reduces tangles and the bait loop is a game-changer. I no longer have to use bait elastic, which is a big plus. Works perfectly with live minnows and worms.

Solid construction. The Kevlar body holds up well in rough water. I use the 200lb version for smaller fish and it’s reliable. The bait loop is easy to use and keeps the bait in place.
