Sevenseas Hooker jigs

I really love these jigs. Proven to me to catch GT, grouper, tuna, golden snapper, etc.

Cuurently i've only got 7 in my collection, 4 220g original Hooker1, 3 220g Hooker Super Hologram, 1 220g Hooker1 Long and 1 250 Hooker 7 Anatahan.

Note the hologram sticker.  Thorn sticker can be replaced with the original parts from Sevenseas.

Compared to the Hooker 1 220g, the Hooker 7 250g Sinks approximately 1.5 times slower, allowing more hang time and pin point accuracy jigging.

The sharp edges on the rear does not allow the lure to be affected by currents making it possible for pin-point jigging. The darting capabilities surely make Hokker 7 an "Atomic Darter!"

Notice the hologram sticker and body...

Pekan 5-6 Sept 2007: PELAREEF Charter - Pekan Sailfish

This is very sudden, unplanned decision. On the 1st Sept i was informed to get ready to escort our FIRST Pelareef Charter customer. So me and alfi got together and plan what the next move. We get in touch with oor Tekong Azhar MJ, asking the available date. Azhar said the ONLY date is 5-6 Sept. So we booked the date. Together with alfi & hasran are our Platinum Premier client, consist of Nasir, Nizam & Azrol. The target is SAILFISH.  Weather was excellent on the 5th but a little bit rough on the 6th morning.  Within this 2 days, we landed 14 sailfish with countless hookups, snapped lines, hooks auto-dislodge during fight & boatside etc.
