Why use dropper loop/paternoster rig?
The dropper loop/paternoster rig is arguably the world's most versatile and effective rig. Whether you are targeting cod or rockfish, casting or bottom bouncing the paternoster rig has you covered. 

A standard paternoster rig has a sinker on the bottom loop and one or more hooks attached to the loops above the sinker (droppers). Most rigs will use two droppers that stand out from the main line but you can use more (check your local fishing regulations).

Made in Australia

Hardwire Tackle x Alaska Bottom Bouncing Jigs

This jig has a lot going on, literally. The boys at Alaska Bottom Bouncing Jigs have teamed up with us here at Hardwire Tackle to make what we truly believe is a premium halibut, lingcod and rockfish lead jig that has yet to be seen. 

It all starts with the jig head coated in STARDUST Unbreakable Powder Paint. Gone are the chips and cracks you get from traditional powder coating. Nothing is more unsettling than after a day of bouncing your favorite colored jig off the bottom that it has returned back to it's original lead (silver) color! Painting the head in STARDUST eliminates this by providing a virtually indestructible coating that can take a beating!

Next, we paired the lead jig with our own proprietary Hardwire Tackle grubs. Heavy duty, highly durable yet extremely flexible, our grubs go perfect with the STARDUST jig head. We also threw in a skirt to give it more... flare! 

Now onto the finale... We heard from many fisherman that they didn't want the fish to be able to use the weight of the jig head to throw the hook. Our solution? Make this beauty fully articulating! And by not having a static hook it also gives the jig more action!

Available sizes:
6oz lead head jig w/ 7/0 J-hook paired w/ 4" beaver tail & skirt
10oz lead head jig w/ 10/0 J-hook paired w/ 6" beaver tail & skirt
16oz lead head jig w/ 12/0 J-hook paired w/ 8-1/2" beaver tail & skirt
20oz lead head jig w/ 12/0 J-hook paired w/ 8-1/2" beaver tail & skirt

All our sculpin tubes, predator shads, merminator mermaid grubs, grub skirts, grub & beaver tails and lead jigs (rigged & unrigged) are poured, rigged and assembled here in the State of Alaska using a proprietary 100% phthalate free blend of plastic and medical grade lead all Made in the USA.
