Quick take
A 50-pack of size 1/0 octopus hooks with shank barbs that hold bait and offset points for corner-of-mouth sets.
This is a 50-count pack of size 1/0 octopus baitholder hooks in high carbon steel. Two small barbs on the shank help hold soft or natural bait in place, and the offset point suits rigging for bass, pike, muskie and salmon. A pack this size is handy for anglers who go through hooks while rigging live bait or soft plastics in fresh or salt water.
Best for
- Live bait rigs with worms or shad
- Pike and salmon fishing on heavy tackle
- Both freshwater and saltwater applications
Skip if
- You fish finesse; size 1/0 is too large
- You use artificial lures; these are bait hooks
Strengths
- Shank barbs secure soft bait through the cast
- Offset point rolls into corner of the jaw
- Turned-up eye suits snelling and basic knots
Trade-offs
- High carbon steel rusts fast; store dry
- Shank barbs make the hook hard to remove if deep-set
- Size 1/0 is large for panfish and small trout
