The R&R BRN Synthetic Bait Rigging Needle is specially adapted for use with R&R Tackle's popular rigging bands (sold separately). Its unique band keeper helps keep the threaded band properly positioned in the eye of the needle, allowing you to easily secure your bait to the hook with non-slip precision. This top-quality rigging needle is made of durable synthetic material that will never rust, textured sides for a firm grip, and a cutting tip for making incisions without reaching for another tool.
