Quick take
High carbon steel single hooks in 8 sizes for replacing treble hooks on hard lures and topwater plugs.
This inline single hook is made of black high carbon steel and comes in size 8, for swapping out the treble hooks on plugs, poppers and crankbaits. Its eye sits in line with the lure body, so it hangs straight rather than at an angle. With one point instead of three, it tends to catch in weeds less often than a treble. Matching its weight to the hook it replaces helps the lure keep its action.
Best for
- Customizing crankbaits and poppers with single hooks
- Reducing damage on catch-and-release trips
- Fishing rocky or woody structure with less snagging
Skip if
- Your lures come with single hooks already
- You prefer treble hooks for improved hook-up rate
Strengths
- Single design snags less than treble hooks in rocks and wood
- High carbon steel holds a sharp point and resists corrosion
- Needle point penetrates quickly with minimal rod pressure
Trade-offs
- Replacing treble hooks requires removing the old hook
- Single hooks have lower hook-up rate on short strikes
- Black finish can rust if not dried quickly after saltwater use
