Two hooks are whipped onto braided Dyneema assist cord so that each sits on its own short tether beside the jig, which is what an assist is for: a fish that swipes at a fluttering jig instead of engulfing it still meets a point, and once hooked there are two points of contact to fight against. The hooks are ground to a fine, strong point that penetrates on rod load alone, and Dyneema cord is thin for its breaking strain, so the rig adds little bulk to a jig's action. Three sizes cover light shore metals through to offshore jigging weights.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChoosing a size.\u003c\/strong\u003e Match the hook to the jig, not to the fish you hope for. The assist should reach roughly one third to one half of the jig's body length, ring to hook bend. Too short and a short-biting fish never finds the point; too long and the hooks wrap the leader. \u003cstrong\u003e#2\/0\u003c\/strong\u003e suits light shore and light-boat jigs in the 20–60 g class. \u003cstrong\u003e#5\/0\u003c\/strong\u003e is the general offshore size for mid-weight vertical and slow-pitch jigs. \u003cstrong\u003e#7\/0\u003c\/strong\u003e is for large jigs and heavy drag settings on reef and wreck ground.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReady-tied twin assist rig — no assist cord, needle or whipping required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo hooks per rig for extra hooking chances on a swiping take\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBraided Dyneema assist cord: thin for its strength, low bulk beside the jig\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFine, strong hook points that penetrate under rod load\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThree sizes: #2\/0, #5\/0 and #7\/0\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow To Rig It\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eJoin it through hardware, not cord to split ring\u003c\/strong\u003e — Connect the rig to the jig through a solid ring and a heavy split ring.
