Rigid Wacky

Zappu's Rigid Wacky is a hook specifically designed for Neko Rig, dedicated exclusively to light and ultra-light tackle, to be used with lines between 2.5 and 5 lb. Made with high-quality materials, like all Zappu products, it incorporates all the brand's know-how in hook design thanks to its long flat shank and distinctive narrow curvature. The combination of a slim worm and a fine-wire hook maximizes ease of use, ensuring: excellent holding power that keeps the bait in place, reducing the risk of tearing; stability and control that minimize hook play, perfectly supporting the delicate presentations typical of light tackle.

Long Flat Shank
The elongated shank with a reduced curve keeps the worm securely in place when rigged vertically for Neko Rig. It prevents bait slippage and tearing during action, and significantly reduces accidental losses during casting.

V-Insertion Narrow Throat
The narrow throat with an acute angle allows for V-style rigging, firmly holding the worm in position. This ensures the bait grabs water effectively and delivers an ideal action. It also drastically reduces missed hooksets caused by the worm covering the hook point.
