How to use long handled Conventional Rig Hook?

The conventional long handled rig hook has been in use for many years and has been the choice for most  charter boat captains and sport fishing vessels of various sizes. It is light, strong, easy and safe to use, because unlike the throwable rig hooks, you place this rig hook where you want it by hand. Simply motor the boat to the down current side of a structure and have someone poised at the foremost bow section of the boat to reach out with the long handle and place the hook section over a horizontal object like a pipe railing. To remove the rig hook, motor the boat slowly toward the rig hook while someone at the foremost bow section pulls in the rope until reaching the handle, at which point the rig hook can be lifted and brought aboard. The one featured on this site breaks down by unscrewing the sleeve in the middle for easy storage. 

What is a Rig Hook rope, shackle & snubber mooring kit?

A rig hook rope mooring kit is very important for relieving stress from both the rig hook and boat during rough seas. Without it, a rig hook could bend open and fall off of the object to which it is attached— or worse, pull a mooring cleat out of the hull. It also diminishes boat jerking when waves are encountered as the boat pulls against the rope. It works much like a shock absorber. It is a must for rig hook use, especially offshore! Can be added to the EZ Rig Hook rope by splicing it together as an extension or splicing it into the rope near the cable release end.
