Description
Rigid Wacky is ZAPPU's fine-wire Neko rig hook, purpose-built for ultra-light to light tackle on 2.5–5lb line.
The long, flat shank has less curve so it holds a worm tight when stabbed vertically for Neko rigging, reducing tearing and slippage during the cast and retrieve. The sharp-angle throat enables V-zashi piercing, keeping the worm secure and cutting down on missed hook-sets from the worm flipping over the point.
Available in #1 through #4. Known in Japan as the ザップ リジッドワッキー (Rigid Wacky).

FAQ
How does PE rating convert to pounds?
Only approximately. A common rule of thumb is PE size × 10 ≈ breaking strain in pounds, but it varies by brand and braid construction — check the maker's own lb or kg rating on the listing.
Are hook and jig head sizes the same across brands?
No — sizes aren't standardised between Japanese makers. Size to the lure you're rigging and check the brand's own size chart; the measurements on the listing are the honest reference.
The colour looks slightly different from my last spool — is that normal?
Yes. Dye batches on braid and finishes on painted heads vary between production runs. It's cosmetic and doesn't change the spec.
How does small tackle ship?
Packed in Japan and sent with tracked international shipping, same as everything else. Small items still get a tracking number; delivery time varies by destination.
Why buy JDM line specifically?
Japanese line makers in the JAFTMA industry group publish tight diameter and strength tolerances, and member brands are measured against them. Check each listing's spec — that's a per-brand claim, not a blanket promise.
