The hooks are Yaiba, chosen for penetration on light tackle, where you cannot drive a point home with force and the hook has to work on the fish's own take. The cord is deliberately short — long enough for the hooks to swing and find a fish, short enough that they do not wrap the jig on a long cast, which is the failure mode that costs shore anglers the most time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo hooks rather than one is the other half of the design. Small predators hit a light jig fast and often only half-connect; a twin gives a second point on the same take and holds fish that would otherwise shake free. The trade-off is more metal to tangle, which is why the short cord matters here.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSizes run S, M, L and LL, with the cord specified to the size: S and M use 100 lb PE, L and LL use 120 lb PE, per Shout's own specifications.
