Built for Sharks That Pull Back

Big sharks destroy rigs. Their teeth shred light cable, their runs snap weak swivels, and their weight straightens hooks. This rig is spec'd to handle all of it.

The 480lb 49-strand cable resists abrasion from teeth and rough skin. The 700lb mono gives you stretch to absorb headshakes and runs. The Mustad Demon circle hook pins in the jaw corner for safe releases, which matters because large sharks are increasingly managed with mandatory release regulations.

Heavy Cable and Mono

Six feet of 480lb 49-strand cable handles teeth and abrasion. Twelve feet of 700lb mono provides shock absorption. This combination survives sustained fights with large sharks.

Mustad 3X Circle Hook

The Demon Perfect Circle in 14/0 or 16/0 hooks in the jaw corner for safe releases. The 3X forged strength holds shape under extreme pressure from big sharks.

Snap Swivel Sinker Connection

The 2/0 Rosco snap swivel lets you quickly attach and change sinker weights based on current and depth without rebuilding the rig.

How to Rig the XL Shark Rig

1. Attach a heavy sinker to the Rosco snap swivel

2. Bait the circle hook with a large chunk of bonito, bluefish, or mullet

3. Deploy the rig by kayak, drone, or heavy cast

4. Place your rod in a sand spike or rod holder

5. Set the drag to prevent a full spool but allow the initial run

6. Let the circle hook set itself as the shark moves away
