Quick take
Open eye siwash hook for fast replacement on spinners, spoons, and plugs in fresh and saltwater.
The Gamakatsu 3/0 Open Eye Siwash hook is a single hook for spinners, spoons and plugs, with a semi-open eye that slips onto the lure and closes with pliers. It is the smaller of the two sizes in this family, and its forged wire carries a needle point. Anglers who want to replace a treble hook without split rings will find it a straightforward pick.
