Quick take
Aberdeen hooks with a kinked shank designed for slow trolling a half nightcrawler to create corkscrew action.
The Mustad Slow Death Aberdeen hook in size 2 has a kinked shank that gives a corkscrew action when a nightcrawler is threaded on and trolled slowly. Anglers use it to reach cracks, crevices and small pockets that faster blade baits tend to skip. Its forged body, inline ringed eye and needle point suit walleye, bass, crappie, zander, perch and panfish. The red finish and 25-count pack suit anglers who rig crawlers often.
Best for
- Slow trolling with live crawlers for walleye and perch
- Creeping presentations along the bottom in deep water
- Targeting panfish with a single bait on a simple rig
Skip if
- You fish fast moving presentations or need heavier wire for big pike
- You prefer smooth shank hooks for quick bait rigging
Strengths
- Kinked shank design creates wild spinning action at minimal speed
- Needle point penetrates easily on light line pressure
- Ringed eye holds knots securely without slipping
Trade-offs
- Bent shank makes the hook harder to remove from a deeply hooked fish
- Red finish can rust in saltwater or humid storage conditions
- Slow trolling technique requires patience and correct boat speed to work
