The Gamakatsu Assist 550 Short Hooks are built for serious jigging anglers looking for a hook that combines power, precision, and versatility. Designed to excel in vertical jigging, these compact, high-performance hooks ensure you’re ready for the toughest fights in any saltwater environment.

Superior Strength and Durability

Constructed from premium, corrosion-resistant materials, the Assist 550 Short Hooks provide incredible durability even in harsh saltwater conditions. Gamakatsu is known for its ultra-sharp, strong hooks, and the 550 Short lives up to the reputation by delivering solid hook penetration with minimal effort. The hook’s robust construction makes it capable of handling large, hard-fighting fish.

Compact Design for Quick Hooksets

The "short" design of the Assist 550 is ideal for anglers who prefer a more compact hook for their jigs. The shorter profile allows for quicker, more effective hooksets, increasing your chances of securing fish when jigging in deep or fast-moving waters. This compact size also provides excellent control, helping reduce snags and missed strikes.

Pre-Rigged with Strong Assist Cord

Like other Gamakatsu assist hooks, the 550 Short comes pre-rigged with a durable assist cord. This rigging is flexible yet strong, ensuring that the hooks stay securely in place during intense battles with powerful fish. The cord is perfectly suited for heavy-duty jigging applications, giving you confidence in your setup.

Perfect for Heavy Jigging

The Gamakatsu Assist 550 Short Hooks are specifically designed for use with vertical jigs in both shallow and deep waters. Their smaller profile doesn’t sacrifice strength, making them ideal for targeting a range of aggressive species. The shorter shank also works well with smaller jigs, giving you more versatility when selecting your lure.

Ready for the Action

Gamakatsu has made these hooks easy to use right out of the package, ensuring you spend less time preparing and more time fishing. The compact size and pre-rigged cord make them a perfect addition to any jigging setup, allowing you to quickly adapt to changing conditions.
