About this combo
Built specifically for kabura and tai-rubber slow jigging, this combo pairs the Assassin Jigmaster II Slow 6M-C Overhead Rod with the Next Ocean 50 Overhead Reel and XBRAID Upgrade X8 Pentagram braid โ everything you need to work sliding-head skirt jigs dead-slow along the bottom with confidence.
Rod: Assassin Jigmaster II Slow 6M-C Overhead Rod
The Jigmaster II Slow is engineered for the deliberate, near-bottom presentations of kabura and tai-rubber fishing. Its 6M-C classification provides a slow-action, parabolic bend that loads naturally under the weight of a sliding-head jig and transmits subtle resistance and bites with clarity. The tip is sensitive enough to detect light takes, while the blank has the backbone to turn fish hooked deep.
Reel: Next Ocean 50 Overhead Reel RH SB
The Next Ocean 50 is a compact, right-hand overhead reel built for vertical jigging applications where controlled descents and steady retrieves matter. Its smooth drag system handles the sustained pressure of snapper and amberjack hooked on the drop, while the side body (SB) frame keeps weight down without sacrificing rigidity. Line capacity suits typical kabura depths without bulk.
Line: XBRAID Upgrade X8 Pentagram
The XBRAID Upgrade X8 Pentagram is an 8-carrier PE braid featuring a pentagram cross-section weave for exceptional roundness, smoothness, and casting consistency. Its high sensitivity and near-zero stretch ensure every bottom contact and light take registers clearly through the rod โ critical when working jigs at depth with minimal movement. The tight braid also cuts through current cleanly for better jig control.
Together, these three components form a refined, technique-specific slow jigging setup ideal for targeting snapper, kingfish, and reef species on kabura and tai-rubber rigs. Add to cart and fish with purpose.
What's in this combo
Everything you need to know about each piece of gear
Rod
Assassin - Jigmaster II Slow 6M-C Overhead Rod
Assassin
The Jigmaster II is purpose-built for slow-pitch jigging, delivering the precise loading and rhythmic rebound this technique demands. Its parabolic action stores energy smoothly through the stroke and releases it in a controlled snap, letting the blank โ not the angler โ impart that signature fluttering, darting action on the fall that triggers reaction strikes from deep-water predators. At 6 ft with a Medium power rating, it's dialled in for working 30โ120g slow-pitch jigs on PE 1.5โ2 braid, giving you the finesse to tempt pressured fish while retaining the backbone to lift solid snapper, kingfish, and bottom dwellers off the structure. The Nano Resin Technology blank keeps weight down without sacrificing lifting power, so you can stay in rhythm through long drifts without arm fatigue. Fuji K-Series Alconite KR guides keep braid flowing cleanly through every pitch, and the Fuji reel seat with aluminum winder locks your reel down solid for the lift-and-fall cadence that defines the style. Hyperlon fore grips provide a comfortable, tactile hold during extended sessions, and the 1-piece construction maximises sensitivity so you feel every flutter, tick, and tap as the jig works the strike zone. Parabolic slow-pitch action โ loads and unloads to animate the jig with minimal angler input. Medium power, 30โ120g jig range โ ideal for PE 1.5โ2 slow-pitch presentations. Nano Resin Technology blank โ light in hand, strong under load for all-day pitching. Fuji K-Series Alconite KR guides โ smooth line flow and tangle resistance for braid. Fuji reel seat with aluminum winder โ rock-solid reel lockdown through repeated lifts. Hyperlon fore grips โ comfort and control for long sessions on the drift. 1-piece construction โ maximum sensitivity to detect subtle fall-bites.
