About this combo

Built specifically for kabura and tai-rubber style slow jigging, this matched combo delivers the sensitivity, power, and line control needed to work sliding-head skirt jigs dead-slow along the bottom. Every component is selected to complement the others for a seamless, high-performance setup.

Rod: Assassin Jigmaster II Slow 6MH-C Overhead Rod

The Jigmaster II Slow 6MH-C is a 6-foot, medium-heavy overhead rod engineered for slow, near-bottom presentations with kabura and tai-rubber style jigs. Its through-action blank loads smoothly during the slow retrieve and transmits subtle bottom contact and bites with impressive clarity. The overhead (conventional) configuration keeps the angler in direct contact with the jig, critical for the methodical pace this technique demands.

Reel: Next Ocean 50 Overhead Reel RH SG

The Next Ocean 50 is a compact, right-hand overhead reel built for reef and offshore slow jigging applications. Its smooth drag system handles the prolonged, steady pressure typical of quality bottom species targeted on kabura rigs, while the solid gear construction ensures reliable performance under load. The size-50 frame offers ample line capacity without adding unnecessary bulk to the outfit.

Line: XBRAID Upgrade X8 Pentagram

The XBRAID Upgrade X8 Pentagram is an 8-carrier braided PE line with a pentagram cross-section weave, delivering exceptional roundness, surface smoothness, and abrasion resistance. Its near-zero stretch is essential for slow jigging โ€” you feel every tick of the bottom and every tentative bite on the drop. High strength-to-diameter ratios let you fish appropriate PE ratings while maintaining a slim profile through the water column.

Together, this rod, reel, and line form a purpose-matched kabura and tai-rubber slow jigging outfit suited to serious anglers targeting bottom-dwelling species. Add it to your cart and hit the bottom with confidence.
