Octopus Inline Circle Wide Gap Hook - 1X Strong

The Mustad Octopus Circle Hook is a true circle hook featuring a wide gap, offering the best hookup ratios. No wonder it is so popular among tournament fishermen. It features 1X strong wire and making it perfect to target bigger fish. The distinct curved shape of the circle hook will, when the fish takes the baited hook and swallows it, ensure that the hook travels to the corner of the mouth or lip, resulting in fewer deep-hooked fish. The circle hook can be used for a whole range of applications from drifting with live bait for Tarpon or trolling for Sailfish. When live baiting, always choose a hook size that matches the bait. Setting the hook is more of a firm tightening of the line, than an actual strike. Use it to target Sailfish, Amberjack, Permit, Striped Bass, Skipjack, Bonito, Catfish, or Alligator Gar.
