Gamakatsu GA-013 Kamaitachi Heavy Long Assist Hook

The Gamakatsu GA-013 Kamaitachi Heavy Long Assist Hook is a high-performance double assist system designed for anglers who demand unwavering strength and reliability when targeting powerful deep-sea predators.

Developed with Japanese precision craftsmanship, this heavy-duty model is ideal for vertical jigging, deep-drop fishing, and offshore battles against species such as amberjack, grouper, tuna, and GT. The barbless long-shank design ensures instant hook penetration with minimal resistance, while enabling smooth and safe release to reduce fish injury.

Each assist cord features a built-in fluorocarbon core, providing the perfect level of stiffness to prevent the hooks from tangling with each other or the jig — a common problem in standard assist setups. The dual-hook configuration delivers exceptional hook-up rates and control, keeping you connected through the hardest fights.

Crafted from ultra-high-carbon Japanese steel, the GA-013 boasts extreme sharpness and tensile strength, coated with a saltwater-resistant silver finish for maximum corrosion protection. Whether paired with heavy or slow jigs, this model maintains a natural presentation and reliable performance in the harshest offshore conditions.
