Mustad Wide Gap Circle hook 39948NP-BN

The Mustad Demon® Wide Gap 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. 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 Marlin with bridle rigged to deep-dropping for Swordfish. When live baiting always match the hook size to the bait. Setting the hook is more of a firm tightening of the line, than an actual strike. Designed for anglers serious about catch and release fishing. Use it to target Tuna, Marlin, Sailfish, Swordfish, Sharks, Wahoo, Halibut, Amberjack, Permit, Striped Bass or Alligator Gar.
