Reel Draggin' Tackle Deep Drop Jigs & Rigs
Our Charter boat, the Canyon Draggin' and our test boat Hanu as well as the Charter Boat Muff Diver spend a lot of time on the edge deep dropping for Golden Tile and short dropping for Blue Lines. We have tried many deep rigs over the last five years. What you see here are a lot of lessons learned. These are top quality rigs and they are exactly what we use.

Golden Tilefish

Angler Christian Hoehner holding a MD citation Golden Tile. This fatty was caught while fishing aboard the Canyon Draggin' on 25 July 2009. The fish was weighed in at the official scale at Sunset Marina Ocean City, Md where it tipped the scales at 47.2 pounds. Congratulations Christian on your Maryland citation Golden Tile Fish.

Our deep drop rigs are made of very high quality components. We ONLY use Premium 150# mono 200# mono and 3x stainless steel ultra sharp circle hooks. Compare us to any other tackle maker, you'll be glad you did

In general the Blue Lines are smaller than the Golden. So we use the 14 and 15/0 rigs for Golden Tiles. Also, when you are deep dropping in 400 to 1000 feet of water, you never know what is going to hit that rig on the way down. On the Canyon Draggin' we use a 15/0 rig for all of our Golden Tile drops so we are ready no matter who shows up for dinner.

We have several Deep Drop rigs from basic hook & line to making use of glow squid and latex covered mono.

Two Hook Rigs, with squid.

We have been using this rig more often than any others. The 9/0 wire offset circle hook seems to be perfect for a wide varity of dropping, from 200 to 1000 feet. We have been getting more hookups with the wire hooks over the 3x stainless. Available in any of the colors seen to the left.
