Blackfish (Tautog) Snafu Rig

Built for the Bite. Designed for the Battle.

The Asalt Fishing Blackfish (Tautog) Snafu Rig is designed for fishing structure, wrecks, and rocky bottom with stronger hookups and durable construction

When you’re targeting blackfish (tautog) in heavy structure, you need a rig that won’t fail when it counts. The Asalt Fishing Snafu Rig is engineered to maximize hook-up ratios while staying strong against brutal structure, sharp teeth, and crushing bites.

Why It Works

The snafu design allows both hooks to sit perfectly in your bait (crab)—creating a natural presentation that blackfish can’t resist. When they bite, they’re already committed.

Key Features

• Dual Hook Snafu Setup – Increases hook-up ratio on short-striking tog
• Premium Hooks – Ultra-sharp, high-carbon steel for instant penetration
• Heavy-Duty Leader – Built to withstand rocks, wrecks, and gnarly structure
• Optimized for Crab Baits – Perfect for green crabs, white leggers, and fiddlers
• Hand-Tied  – Consistent quality, no weak points

Best Use

• Target Species: Blackfish (Tautog)
• Ideal Conditions: Wrecks, reefs, rock piles, bridge pilings
• Technique: Drop straight down, feel the bite, and set hard

Pro Tip

Thread both hooks into your crab—one through the leg socket, one through the body—to create a locked-in bait presentation that won’t spin or tear off.

Built for Serious Tog Fishing

Blackfish don’t play nice—and neither should your gear. This rig is made for anglers who fish tight to structure and expect results.
