VMC Heavy Duty Wide Gap Tokyo Rig Hooks

VMC Heavy Duty Wide Gap Tokyo Rig Hooks

Take your power fishing to the next level with the VMC Heavy Duty Wide Gap Tokyo Rig. This innovative system combines the punch of a heavy-duty flipping hook with the unique freedom of a dropper-style rig, giving your soft plastics an action that traditional Texas rigs simply cannot replicate.

Maximum Action and Control

The Tokyo Rig is designed to keep your bait hovering just above the bottom, away from silt and debris, while allowing it to move with a completely unrestricted swimming motion. By separating the weight from the hook via a stainless steel wire dropper, you gain a massive advantage in hookup ratios; because the weight isn't directly attached to the hook, fish can't use it as leverage to spit the bait during a fight.

How to Rig

1. Slide on the Weight: Choose your preferred sinker (tungsten or lead) and slide it onto the stainless steel dropper wire.

2. Secure the Base: Use a pair of needle-nose pliers to bend the bottom of the wire upward at a 90-degree angle (or into a small loop) to lock the weight in place.

3. Rig the Bait: Texas-rig your favorite soft plastic creature bait or worm onto the heavy-duty wide gap hook.

4. Tie On: Attach your mainline or leader to the solid ring at the top of the rig and you're ready to cast.

Key Features

• Heavy Duty Wide Gap Hook: Forged from high-carbon steel, this hook is built to handle heavy braided lines and the most aggressive hooksets in thick cover.

• One-Piece Solid Ring: The hook and wire dropper are connected via a durable solid ring, ensuring maximum strength and preventing your line from getting pinched or frayed.

• Customizable Dropper Wire: The stainless steel wire allows you to customize your sink rate on the fly by swapping weights to match depth and current.

• 3° Offset Point: Specifically angled to increase your hookup percentage by ensuring the point finds purchase the moment you set the hook.

Pro Tip

The Tokyo Rig is incredibly versatile—try "punching" it through heavy mats of vegetation. Unlike a standard punch rig where the weight can impede the hookset, the Tokyo Rig's weight hangs below the bait, leading the way through the grass and leaving the hook completely free to find its mark when a bass strikes.

Built for the toughest conditions. The VMC Heavy Duty Wide Gap Tokyo Rig gives you the durability of a flipping setup with the professional-grade action required to trigger big bites.
