Gamakatsu WIRE RIG The Gamakatsu WIRE RIG is the ultimate engineering solution for fishing for fish with cutting teeth. The challenge in this type of fishing is twofold: on the one hand, it is mandatory to use a steel cable so that the fish does not cut the line. On the other hand, standard cables are rigid, causing the suspicious fish to feel resistance and spit out the bait before the hookset. Key Technologies and Benefits: Nano Smooth Coat Technology: This is the heart of the system. The hook is not coated with a regular coating, but with a PTFE (advanced polymer) composite coating that reduces friction during penetration to almost zero. The meaning for the fisherman: Even if the fish has a hard and armored jaw, the hook will slide in (“Frictionless Penetration”) with every light touch, which dramatically increases the hook-up ratio. 7×7 Steel Cable (Super-Flexible): Unlike regular cables (1×7) that are rigid, this rig is constructed of 49 thin strands of stainless steel (7 groups of 7 strands). The effect: The cable behaves like a soft textile thread. When the fish sucks in the bait, the cable folds and enters the mouth without resistance (“Natural Suction”), but as soon as the teeth close – it provides hardened steel protection.
