BKK BB Trigger-21 Stinger Rig

Product Highlights

The BKK BB Trigger-21 stinger rig is designed to optimize the rigging of large soft lures and secure those often subtle predator strikes. On oversized lures, attacks frequently result in “short strikes”: the fish grabs the rear of the lure without reaching the main hook. A well-designed stinger rig adds an extra hooking point in the right place, helping convert more strikes into landed fish.

This model uses hardened stainless steel components and retention pins (stops) designed to stabilize the rig inside the lure without requiring complicated DIY setups. It is completed with BKK Spear 21 SS trebles, chosen for their quick hook-up performance on the strike and long-lasting effectiveness.

In practice, the BB Trigger-21 is all about a simple approach: achieving a clean, aligned extra hook-up point that preserves the natural swim of the soft bait while standing up to the demands of big predator fishing. It is a particularly relevant accessory for demanding anglers who want a reliable, ready-to-use solution for rigging a bulky lure while keeping the setup neat and coherent.

Benefits and Key Product Features

Better strike conversion: by adding an extra hook point, the rig helps turn “tail-end” bites into solid hook sets. This is a real advantage when fish follow lures for a long time, nip without fully engulfing, or target the rear of the soft bait.

Reliable materials: the use of hardened stainless steel promotes strong mechanical resistance to repeated pulls, powerful hook sets, and hard fights. For the angler, this means greater consistency throughout the season, with a rig that keeps its function and alignment.

Penetration and holding power: BKK trebles are valued for their effectiveness at the key moment of the hook set. On large lures, where the body material can absorb part of the strike, having a secondary hook that penetrates quickly makes a difference.

Clean rigging: the retention pins help keep the rig securely in place, limiting slippage and awkward positions that can hurt the swim or increase lost fish. The expected result: a lure that stays consistent, a better-positioned rig, and a more controlled presentation.

Versatility for predator fishing: this type of additional hook rig is aimed at modern techniques for targeting big predators on soft lures, in freshwater as well as in environments where stainless steel is appreciated for its durability. Without being limited to one species, it naturally fits pike fishing and other large predator applications.

How to Use

To get the best out of the BB Trigger-21, start by positioning the rig so it preserves the lure’s action: the goal is to add an extra hook point without making the setup too rigid. The retention pins anchor the rig into the soft bait material; insert them cleanly and keep everything properly aligned.

Adjust the stinger position to the area most often attacked (usually the rear). If you notice repeated short strikes, moving it farther back may improve results. After each fish or after several casts, check the alignment, hook points, and the lure’s integrity: a rig that has shifted reduces hook-up quality.

For maintenance, rinsing and drying after use help preserve the components, especially if you fish in wet or harsh conditions. Store the rig so the points do not dull from contact with other hooks.
