The Rig Behind Tournament Wins

King mackerel fishing is a wire game. Kings have teeth that slice through mono and fluoro in an instant. Blue Water Candy King Rigs are built on #5 coffee color stainless wire that is strong enough to survive the bite but subtle enough not to spook fish in clear water.

Five styles let you match your rig to your technique. Single nose hook with a treble stinger for slow trolling live bait. Double trebles for bump baits. Double pogy rig for running two live baits at once. These rigs have been responsible for tournament wins up and down the Atlantic coast. Hand made in North Carolina.

Five Rigging Styles

Single nose hook with #4 treble, double #4 trebles, double #6 trebles, double pogy rig, and nose hook with double treble. Every major king mackerel technique is covered with the right hook configuration.

Stainless Wire Leader

#5 coffee color stainless wire resists king mackerel teeth and blends with the water. Coffee color is less visible than bright stainless, giving you a wire leader that fish are less likely to shy away from.

Tournament Quality

Hand tied in North Carolina by Blue Water Candy. The same rigs used by tournament anglers targeting smoker kings. Quality components, sharp hooks, and consistent construction from rig to rig.

How to Fish Blue Water Candy King Rigs

  1. Select the style that matches your technique
  2. Hook live bait through the nose with the lead hook
  3. Position the stinger treble near the bait's tail
  4. Slow troll at 1-2 knots along structure or ledges
  5. Let kings run before setting the hook
