Product Information

Full details

The CC Moore NS1 Zig Hookbaits are purpose-built for carp anglers who specialize in zig rig fishing and require high-visibility, ultra-buoyant hookbaits to target fish suspended in the water column. These hookbaits are designed to maintain their position effectively at any depth, providing a consistent trigger for bites; however, their small size and specific buoyancy mean they are best used with lightweight, finesse-style zig rig setups rather than heavy-duty bottom gear.

FAQs

Can I use these hookbaits on a bottom rig?

These are specifically engineered as ultra-buoyant zig hookbaits. While you could use them as a pop-up on other rigs, they are optimized for mid-water suspension.

Do I need to soak these in liquid attractants?

They are highly potent out of the pack, but you can add a small amount of matching liquid booster if you prefer to refresh them during a long session.

What is the best hook size to pair with these?

We recommend pairing these 8x12mm baits with size 10 to 12 hooks for the most natural presentation.

Will the color fade over time?

While designed to be durable, extreme UV exposure over very long periods can cause minor fading. Keep them stored in their container.

Are these hookbaits suitable for winter fishing?

Yes, their high visibility and consistent buoyancy make them effective in colder water when fish are less active and need a clear visual target.

Troubleshooting

Hookbait rising too fast

Use a larger hook size or add a tiny piece of tungsten putty to the hook link to counterbalance the buoyancy.

Rig tangling on cast

Ensure you are using a PVA foam nugget on the hook point to protect it during the cast and provide a slower descent rate.

Bait losing visibility

Clean the surface of the hookbait with a dry cloth or apply a small amount of liquid booster if the bait has been submerged for more than 24 hours.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent buoyancy for long-duration zig rig fishing
  • Highly visible profile to trigger predatory instincts
  • Reliable, high-quality materials from CC Moore
  • Versatile 8x12mm size for various presentation styles

Cons

  • Small size may be less effective for selecting larger specimen fish
  • Requires careful rig balancing due to high buoyancy
  • Limited to zig rig specific fishing applications

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To achieve the best results, use these hookbaits with high-quality, sharp hooks designed for zig rigs. Because the buoyancy is high, always test your rig in a bucket of water before casting to ensure the hook-to-bait balance meets your requirements. For care, keep the container lid tightly sealed when not in use to maintain the integrity of the attractants and buoyancy. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent premature degradation of the material.
