Size #4 black chrome octopus hooks with offset points and dual bait-holding barbs, sold in a 100-pack for live-bait fishing.
This is a 100-piece pack of JSHANMEI octopus baitholder hooks in size #4, made of carbon steel with an offset point and a barbed shank. The barbs help hold live bait or worms in place on the hook. Anglers fishing for panfish, perch, bass, walleye or catfish in fresh or salt water can use it to stock a tackle box with small baitholder hooks.
