Description
Guru Pole Special Barbed Rigs 8″ provide anglers with a professionally tied hooklength designed specifically for natural venue fishing. Created in response to popular demand, these ready rigs deliver the same high standards of quality and consistency that anglers expect from hand-tied hooklengths, while eliminating the time and effort required to tie small hooks and fine lines yourself.
Whether targeting roach, skimmers, bream, perch or other natural venue species, these ready-tied rigs offer excellent presentation and dependable performance straight from the packet.
Performance and Design
At the heart of each rig is the renowned Pole Special hook. Manufactured from lightweight yet durable black-nickel wire, this hook combines strength with a refined profile that suits delicate natural bait presentations. As a result, anglers can present baits naturally while maintaining confidence when playing fish.
The extra-long hook point provides excellent penetration and secure hook holds. Furthermore, the hook retains its sharpness throughout prolonged fishing sessions, helping anglers convert more bites into landed fish. The long shank design also makes unhooking quicker and easier, which proves particularly useful during busy match sessions.
Guru ties the smaller hook sizes to finesse N-Gauge Pro line to maximise presentation. Size 22 uses 0.08mm line, size 20 uses 0.09mm and size 18 uses 0.10mm. Meanwhile, the larger size 16 and 14 hooks use reliable 0.11mm and 0.13mm N-Gauge line to provide additional strength when required.
Each rig measures 8 inches in length, a specification requested by Guru’s natural venue specialists and European team. This additional length creates a more natural fall through the water, which can help fool cautious fish. Consequently, these rigs perform exceptionally well when presenting natural baits in rivers, canals, lakes and reservoirs.
If required, anglers can easily shorten the hooklength to suit specific fishing situations. In addition, the rigs fit directly onto the 8-inch pegs found in Guru Large and XL Rig Cases, allowing for quick organisation and efficient storage.
With their combination of finesse presentation, premium components and ready-tied convenience, Guru Pole Special Barbed Rigs 8″ provide an excellent solution for anglers targeting fish on natural venues.
