Octopus hooks with two shank barbs to hold soft baits in place during casting and fighting fish.
This 3/0 octopus-style baitholder hook carries two barbs on the shank, set to hold bait in place for live-bait presentations in freshwater and saltwater. Its high carbon steel construction and black finish suit anglers rigging bait for bass, pike, salmon and other species. The closed eye lets it work on many rigs, giving a simple, natural presentation for live bait.
