Gamakatsu Kamaitachi Heavy Assist Hook
The Gamakatsu Kamaitachi Heavy Assist Hook are built for powerful saltwater jigging where maximum strength, instant penetration, and stable control are essential. Designed with an ultra-short axis, these hooks maintain a compact profile that enhances the natural movement of slow-pitch and vertical jigs.
Constructed using Gamakatsu’s T.G.W (Thin Gauge Wire) high-toughness material, the Kamaitachi Heavy delivers outstanding strength without unnecessary bulk. The barbless design increases penetration speed, reduces damage to the fish, and helps maintain secure hook-ups even under heavy load.
Each hook is pre-rigged with a fluorocarbon-core assist cord, providing stiffness to reduce tangling while keeping the hook in the optimal hooking position. Ideal for upgrading lures or building custom assist rigs for offshore targets.
