The BlacktipH Kingfish Rig is purpose-built for anglers targeting one of the fastest and most aggressive predators in offshore fishing. Developed in collaboration with BlacktipH, this rig is engineered to deliver lightning-fast hookups, maximum bait presentation, and the durability needed to handle violent strikes from kingfish and other high-speed pelagics.

Engineered for Speed & Precision

At the front of the rig is a trusted Mustad® 94151 6/0 Single Hook, designed for secure initial hookups and natural bait presentation. Paired with a Premium #1 JawLok Treble Hook in the rear, this combination dramatically increases hookup ratios while maintaining exceptional holding power during long runs and head shakes.

Stealthy Yet Built for Abuse

Constructed with #8 single-strand wire, the rig offers the ideal balance of stealth, flexibility, and bite protection—strong enough to withstand razor-sharp teeth without compromising bait movement.

Finished with premium 80lb stainless steel swivels, this rig minimizes line twist and stands up to repeated strikes and high-speed trolling pressure.

Why Anglers Choose This Rig

Whether slow trolling live baits offshore or targeting tournament-class kingfish, this rig is optimized for fast reaction bites and dependable hook penetration.
