NGT Luminous Hokkai Rig 3 Hook (Size 1/0)

When the sun goes down or youre dropping into the dark depths of a North Sea wreck, visibility is your best friend. At Gerrys Fishing, we know that a lure a fish cant see is a lure a fish cant catch. The NGT Luminous Hokkai Rig is a specialized tool designed to bridge that gap, using glow-in-the-dark technology to trigger aggressive strikes from predators in low-light environments.

Tied on a reliable 40lb (0.60mm) mainline, this rig features three size 1/0 hooks. The 1/0 size is a fantastic utility choiceits slightly smaller than a standard mackerel hook, making it perfect for targeting a wider variety of species, from hungry whiting and codling to larger mackerel and pollack. Each hook is dressed with the iconic Hokkai winged lure, infused with a luminous compound that provides a ghostly, irresistible glow underwater.

Key Features & Performance

• High-Vis Luminous Action: The lures are designed to absorb light and emit a soft glow, making them stand out in murky water, deep wrecks, or during night sessions.

• Precision 1/0 Hooks: Equipped with three high-quality, sharp hooks that offer excellent penetration and are sized perfectly for all-rounder saltwater fishing.

• Durable 40lb Mainline: Built with 0.60mm monofilament, providing plenty of strength to handle multi-fish hookups while remaining supple enough for a natural swimming action.

• Ready-to-Fish Convenience: Pre-tied to NGTs high standards, allowing you to clip on and start fishing immediatelyno fumbling with knots in the dark.

Technical Specifications

Where to Use the Luminous Hokkai Rig

• Night Fishing from Piers: If you are fishing under the lights or in total darkness for winter Whiting or Scad, the luminous glow is a massive advantage.

• Deep Water Wrecking: When fishing over sunken structures where light levels are low, these Hokkais act as a beacon for hungry Pollack and Cod.

• Murky/Colored Water: After a storm when the sea is mucky, the visual pop of the luminous wings helps fish locate your bait much faster than traditional feathers.

Pro Tip from Gerrys Fishing

To get the absolute best out of a luminous rig, you need to charge it. Before casting out, hold the lures up to your headlamp or a UV torch for about 1020 seconds. This supercharges the luminous material, ensuring it glows intensely the moment it hits the water. If the fishing is a bit slow, try tipping the bottom hook with a tiny sliver of squid for a scent trail that matches the visual attraction.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Does the glow last forever?

The luminous material will naturally fade over time underwater. We recommend re-charging the lures with a torch every few casts to ensure they stay as bright and attractive as possible.

What is the advantage of a 1/0 hook over a 2/0?

The 1/0 hook is slightly smaller, which can lead to a better hook-up rate when fish are nipping at the lures rather than swallowing them whole. Its also ideal for smaller-mouthed species like Bream or Gurnard.

Can I use this rig for Mackerel?

Absolutely! Mackerel love Hokkai-style lures, and the luminous quality makes these particularly effective on overcast days or during the early morning/late evening golden hour.
