Terminal Tackle Fishing Gear

The Owner Hyper Split Rings are a standard in the industry with many tackle manufacturers using them on their lures.  We like them because they are strong and come in many sizes to fit the right lure.  

 The size of the wire and the strength are ideal for small fish like trout and larger fish such as tuna.  They are easy enough to open with split ring pliers but make sure you have the right plier for your size split ring.  

They can also be added to the tie point on the lure to give it extra action.  We like to make sure the knot doesn't end up where the split in the ring is, at the right angle it could cut your line.  Tie your knot so that the split part is 45 degrees one way or the other from your tie point.  

Organizing your split rings in the right box is very important.  Find a box that has a tight seal and won't let the rings go under the dividers in the box.  It's good to have several sizes so if you bend one out on a fish, you have the same size to replace the bent one with.  Having Owner Hyper Split Rings handy will make sure your fishing day is successful.

The Owner Ringed Mutu Circle Hook is the leader in circle hooks.  As with any circle hook, never set the hook.  If you get bit, point the rod tip at the fish and wind until you feel the rod load up.  Then raise the rod tip slowly and hang on!  

The welded ring on these hooks gives you the added security you need when fighting big fish.  The barb is significant in size giving you the confidence you need to keep the fish from coming unbuttoned.  If you need more than just a small pack, we also carry the Pro Pack with a larger quantity and better value.  

Owner Aki Twist Bait Hooks are the standard when it comes to fishing squid in Southern California.  The long shank, offset point, and heavy gauge wire make this a big game hook that stands up to tough conditions.  For a full size squid not cut, we follow Brandon Haywards recommendation of a 7/0.  

Thread the hook through the squid 2-3 times and put it on a dropper loop or glow slider.  We like to put the hook 3 feet from the weight on the dropper loop.   For the glow sinker, let it slide all the way down to the hook.  

We often use 1/4oz, 3/8oz, and 1/2oz sliders for white seabass and yellowtail.  Try using the Billfishes Combi swivel for added security and bait action.  This unique swivel allows the bait to move 360 degrees around your main line.

Lead Torpedo Weights are used on almost any saltwater fishing trip in Southern California.  These are the staple weight used to get your bait to the bottom for fish like halibut, rock fish, white sea bass, calico bass, white fish, and many other species. The two brass ends allow for multiple rigging styles.

We often use them for the dropper loop rig, reverse dropper loop, and sinker rig for tuna.  These premium lead weights are made right here in Southern California, buy USA products.

Owner Weighted Beast Hooks with twist lock is one of the finest hooks made for soft swimbaits or thicker plastic baits.  The extra wide gap allows for a thicker plastic lure and the centering pin makes rigging a breeze.  With Owner's patented center pin twist lock, the position of the hook is perfect and won't wander to one side or the other when you twist it on. 

The weight on the shank acts as a keel and won't let the bait roll over or wobble uncontrollably.  The 3X strong wired hook can land big fish without bending or letting the fish off.  With the super sharp point, this hook is sure to become one of your favorites, it is one of our favorites.  Next time you need an extra wide gap weighted hook, try the Owner Weighted Beast Hook.

Lead Masters Glow Egg Sinkers have one of the best glow paints we've seen.  They absorb the light quickly and stay lit for a long time.  The smooth surface inside the sinker won't damage your line.  

These are great for night fishing or for fish that are attracted to light.  We've noticed that many time in low light or in deep water, the glow of an egg sinker is enough to bring fish from a long way off and tends to get them to bite better than a regular egg sinker.  

Tie one of this on for your next trip, the Lead Masters Glow Egg Sinker may make the difference between no fish and lots of fish.

Lead Egg Sinkers can be used in so many ways while fishing it's hard to say how the best way to use them is.  For live bait fishing offshore in Southern California, we use them most often to get our bait deeper in the column.  Often times the bird will eat your bait and just a little weight can get it out of reach of the birds and in the mouth of the fish.  

In freshwater, they are often used for fishing the Carolina Rig for many different species.  These lead weights are made by Leadmasters and are premium quality.  Get some as an add on to your order like most of our customers do.  We also have torpedo weights if you're looking for weights over 1oz.

The hook used is as important as any other part of the equation.  Gamakatsu Nautilus Circle Hooks are among the best due to their superior diameter to strength ratio.  These hooks are very sharp with a chemically sharpened point.  

The barb is big enough to keep fish hooked and the diameter small enough to pierce the fishes mouth easily.  If you're looking for the best of both worlds, try the Gamakatsu Nautilus Circle Hooks.

Owner's Solid Unbreakable Rings are made of stainless steel and are virtually unbreakable! They offer superior strength and they can be used for a variety of things such as a connection between lines and leader. They resist abrasion from wire lines and are not detrimental to your softer lines like split rings can be.  They are best used on jigs when using Owner Assist hooks and are key to attaching them to vertical jigs.  Simply use split rings to the jig eye, then the solid ring to the split ring, and then loop the assist hooks around the solid ring.  If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact us.

Owner Ringed Flyliner Hooks are ideal for live bait due to the close bend, looped eye, and no offset. This tighter profile lies flatter with the bait, thus minimizing the risk of the gamefish being able to pull the hook away.

The ring on the eye enhances freedom of movement for the bait, while giving a pivoting point when the hook is taken by the gamefish, thus minimizing the risk of being pulled away. The wire is not excessively thick, limiting any likelihood of damage to the bait, but is still robust enough to be depended on.
