Psycho Stealth X 2 Hi Lo Rig
The Psycho Stealth X 2 Hi Lo Rig is a 50-inch pre-tied hi-lo surf fishing rig designed with minimal hardware and plenty of separation between its two hooks. Built with 25 lb Yo-Zuri Disappearing Pink Superior leader line and Mustad 1/0 wide-gap circle hooks, this rig presents your bait without a lot of extra metal around it.
With the hooks spaced approximately 2.5 feet apart, the Stealth X 2 gives you a traditional lower bait presentation plus a higher hook positioned to reach fish feeding higher in the water column. It is a practical choice for surf anglers targeting pompano, whiting, trout, redfish, black drum, sheepshead, and more.

Why This Tackle Works on the OBX
The Stealth X 2's widely spaced hi-lo configuration gives surf anglers two different bait positions on a single rig. The lower hook fishes in the traditional position, while the upper hook places another bait higher in the water column—a useful presentation when targeting sight-feeding fish such as pompano.
For Hatteras Island and Outer Banks surf anglers, the rig provides a ready-made two-hook setup without requiring you to tie your own leader and hook arrangement. Pair it with the appropriate sinker for the conditions, add your preferred bait, and you're ready to fish.
When to Use This Tackle
The Psycho Stealth X 2 Hi Lo Rig is designed primarily for surf fishing when you want to fish two baits at different heights. It is particularly well suited to anglers targeting pompano and whiting, while the manufacturer also recommends it for trout, redfish, black drum, sheepshead, and other species.
