Saltwater Fishing Tackle & Gear

The Halco Roosta Popper is perfect for targeting game fish that are aggressively  attacking bait fish near or on the surface.  The hardware on these poppers is of the highest quality and will stand up to big fish like tuna, GT's, dorado, and peacock bass. They are best used with a heavy spinning rod and reel due to the higher inches of line retrieved per crank.  We prefer to have braided line with a short 3' top shot of monofilament or fluorocarbon.

The Halco Roosta 195 Haymaker is designed for catching some of the toughest fish that swim, from Giant Trevally to Dogtooth Tuna. It is built with extra heavy duty, custom made 7xx fish rings and is equipped with Mustad 5 extra strong 5/0 trebles. While designed with a blooping style retrieve in mind, the Roosta Haymaker can be simply wound in at speed or trolled for excellent results.The recommended method of retrieval for best results is to point the rod tip at the lure, retrieve any slack line and firmly sweep the rod tip in a downward motion approximately 45 degrees. Allow the lure to rest for several seconds and if a fish hasn't taken the lure repeat as necessary.

The Shimano Ocea Jigger Star Drag Reel is a flagship-level star drag jigging reel that uses Shimano's Infinity Drive technology to reduce friction between the pinion gear and spool shaft for paramount cranking power. It uses MicroModule Gearing for an unmatched gear feeling. The Ocea Jigger is available in 1500, 2000, and 4000 sizes. The 1500 size is recommended for fishing 50–80m, while the 2000 size is recommended for fishing 100m.

Equipped with Shimano's cutting-edge Infinity Drive technology, a redesigned main shaft supporting structure is employed to cut down friction with the pinion gear, which in turn results in greatly improved rotational torque. Rotational torque is also augmented by an adjustable long crank handle to provide the angler with exceptional leverage over heavy loads. 

The X-Protect feature enhances durability and preserves that out-of-the-box effortless rotation by utilizing a labyrinth construction that channels water away from key internal components, combined with a water-repellant coating.

DaHo Hollow Threading Needles are precision-made stainless steel hypodermic tube needles designed for threading mono and fluorocarbon leader through hollow braided line. Each needle is sized by its length for easy identification — stand them on their open end and find the right size at a glance. The smallest (10–20# size) measures 5.3" and each larger needle is 0.1" longer than the last, up to 6.4" for the 300–400# size.

The primary sizing dimension is the ID (Internal Diameter), which indicates the approximate mono/fluoro line size that fits inside. Select a needle at least .002" larger than your line diameter for ease of use. ID sizes may vary up to .002" due to standard stainless steel hypodermic tube manufacturing tolerances.

Key Features

• Stainless steel hypodermic tube construction — durable and precise
• Length-based sizing system — easy to identify the right needle at a glance
• 12 sizes available — covering 10# to 400# mono/fluoro leader
• Compatible with hollow braided spectra — from light finesse to heavy offshore rigging
• Sold individually

*ID sizes may vary up to .002" due to stainless steel hypodermic tube manufacturing tolerances. Select a needle at least .002" larger than your line diameter for ease of use.

The DaHo Reverse Latch Threading Needle was developed in collaboration with Jerry Brown, a pioneer in hollow spectra fishing line technology. Unlike traditional latch needles adapted from fabric knitting machines — which must be pushed into hollow spectra and often damage the line's fibers when the latch opens — the DaHo Reverse Latch Needle is designed to be pulled through the line, keeping the latch closed by the line's internal pressure. This is the only tool on the market that uses the latch mechanism as it was originally designed to function.

The reverse latch design also allows the latch to open and release the held line when needed — a critical capability for loop creation and splicing techniques where a line must be released by the tool while threaded through another line. Standard loop splicing needles cannot do this. Attached to DaHo's standard 6" needle body, the Reverse Latch Needle also allows longer loops and splices than the old short latch needles permitted.

Key Features

• Pull-through latch design — latch stays closed under line pressure, protecting hollow spectra fibers
• Releasable latch — opens to release held line mid-splice when needed
• 6" needle body — enables longer loops and splices than traditional latch needles
• Latch is always the trailing end — correct orientation for pull-through use
• 3 sizes available — Small, Medium, and Large covering 60# to 300# spectra
• Sold individually

• Adjustable one size fits most (28-50” waist).

Izorline Fluoro Carbon Wind-On Top Shots are the fastest, Stronest, and easiest way to connect Spectre/Braid to Fluoro. There is a small learning curve to fishing Wind-On Top Shots, the Izorline Fluoro Carbon Wind-On Top Shots have a spectra loop on the end so you're going to need to serve a loop in your hollow core spectra to make the loop to loop connection and if you do not have hollow core then, you'd have to tie a Bimini twist loop in the end of your solid spectra to make the right connection.

A Wind-On Top Shot is one of the most in-line connections from braid to Fluoro making it virtually silent and smooth going through the guides on the rod. Also a Loop to Loop connection is the strongest connection for spectra to Fluoro.

The Owner Mutu Circle Hooks are extra strong and able to handle big tuna, yellowtail, halibut, and many other species. Like all circle hooks, make sure you don't set the hook with the rod. Once bit, point the rod at the fish and wind until the rod loads up. The hook should be in the corner of the mouth right where you want it.

In the corner of the mouth, it makes it difficult for the teeth to cut the line. It's also the best point in the mouth for the hook to pivot on. This bulk pack saves you money on one of the best hooks Owner makes.

Key Features:

• Extra Strong Construction: Built to handle big tuna, yellowtail, and halibut
• Circle Hook Design: Self-setting for corner-of-mouth hookups
• Bulk Pack Value: Save money on premium Owner hooks
• Corner Mouth Hooksets: Reduces line cutting from teeth
• Optimal Pivot Point: Best location for hook leverage
• Premium Quality: One of the best hooks Owner makes
• Versatile Applications: Multiple saltwater species

Performance Advantages:

• Extra Strong: Handles big game fish with confidence
• Self-Setting Action: Circle hook design sets itself in corner of mouth
• Reduced Line Cutting: Corner hookups away from teeth
• Better Leverage: Optimal pivot point for fighting fish
• Bulk Pack Savings: More hooks for your money
• Owner Quality: Premium construction and materials

Proper Circle Hook Technique:

• Don't Set the Hook: Never jerk the rod like with J-hooks
• Point Rod at Fish: Keep rod pointed at fish when bit
• Wind Until Loaded: Reel until rod loads up
• Let Hook Work: Circle design sets itself in corner of mouth

Ideal Applications:

• Big tuna fishing
• Yellowtail targeting
• Halibut fishing
• Live bait presentations
• Situations requiring corner-of-mouth hooksets
• Catch and release fishing
• Species with sharp teeth

Target Species:

• Tuna (bluefin, yellowfin, albacore)
• Yellowtail
• Halibut
• Other large saltwater gamefish

When you need extra-strong circle hooks with self-setting design for corner-of-mouth hookups, reduced line cutting, and optimal pivot point for big tuna, yellowtail, and halibut, the Owner Mutu Circle Hooks Bulk Pack is the choice of serious saltwater anglers.

Pro Tip: Don't set the hook with the rod. Point rod at fish and wind until loaded—the circle hook will set itself in the corner of the mouth.

Izorline First String Clear Wind-On Top Shots are the fastest, Stronest, and easiest way to connect Spectre/Braid to Mono. There is a small learning curve to fishing Wind-On Top Shots.

Izorline First String Clear Wind-On Top Shots have a spectra loop on the end so you're going to need to serve a loop in your hollow core spectra to make the loop to loop connection and if you do not have hollow core then, you'd have to tie a Bimini twist loop in the end of your solid spectra to make the right connection.

A Wind-On Top Shot is one of the most in-line connections from braid to mono making it virtually silent and smooth going through the guides on the rod. Also a Loop to Loop connection is the strongest connection for spectra to mono.  Some anglers like monofilament over fluorocarbon because monofilament has more stretch.  That stretch acts like a rubber band and give a shock absorber when a fish trashes or changes direction quickly.  Fluorocarbon is harder for the fish to see and is generally better during the daytime hours.

The Mustad Demon Perfect Circle Hooks are a true circle hook featuring a wide gap, offering the best hookup ratios. No wonder it is so popular among tournament fishermen. It features 3X extra heavy wire and making it perfect to target giants. The distinct curved shape of the circle hook will, when the fish takes the baited hook and eats it, ensure that the hook travels to the corner of the mouth or lip, resulting in fewer gut-hooked fish. The circle hook can be used for a whole range of applications from drifting with live bait for Tarpon or trolling for Marlin.

When live baiting, always choose a hook size that matches the bait. Setting the hook is more of a firm tightening of the line, than an actual strike. The hook has a kirbed hook point for improved hookset. It is in other words, the ultimate Catch & Release hook. Use it to fish for a whole range of fresh and saltwater species, such as Wahoo, Marlin, Bluefin, Yellowfin, Skipjack, Snapper, Roosterfish, Tarpon, Amberjack, Mahi Mahi/Dorado, Sailfish, Grouper, ect.
