Why you need this:

This custom rod is 100% B&J approved. The B&J Halibut Hammer is a custom-designed halibut jig rod created in partnership with Okuma, engineered for big fish battles and dressed in our iconic green and gold finish. It’s built tough, with a heavy backbone and enough sensitivity to feel deep-water bites, whether you're jigging in Prince William Sound, Cook Inlet, Seward, or any other saltwater destination.

• XXH action for dropping the Hammer on big fish
• Engineered with a metal reel seat and gimbal for durability and longevity
• Balanced for 6–16 oz jigs but can handle more — great feel, serious big fish stopping power
• 5'8" compact, light weight, one-piece build for better leverage and jigging comfort
• Green & Gold finish — signature colors for our B&J custom rods
• Designed by our in-house fishing team for serious Alaskan use

What’s this good for?

• All Alaskan big game fish and more
• Heavy jigging in all fishing situations
• Will handle mono, braided line, and hard hooksets
• Fisherman that desire strength, durability and control
• Fishing Alaska’s coastal hotspots: Cook Inlet, Prince William Sound, Kodiak, etc.
