Assist hooks
Submitted by timboon on Tue, 2017-11-21 22:26
Where are crew buying their assist hooks online and what are peoples goto's....
I'm getting sick of having lots of bits n bobs and want to start narrowing down gear to proven jigs/proven hooks etc....
Hoping to buy in semi bulk so i dont have to worry for a few years, good time to be tying rigs etc

Jig assist components
Not long ago I was looking to make up some inexpensive demersal jig assists. I ended up buying 3/0 and 5/0 jig hooks (Proberos brand, at 35 cents ea) and they look OK. Rather than kevlar assist cord I purchased 250lb braid (100m for $AU10.00). 60mm and 90mm skirts, (18 cents ea). All purchased from Aliexpress. May not be the same quality as the links in Frosty's post above but I don't use more than 5kg of drag on demersal outfits so I reckon they will be fit for purpose.
