Quick take
A high-carbon steel circle hook assortment in eight offset sizes for fresh and saltwater bait fishing.
This is a 150-piece box of offset circle hooks in eight sizes, from #1 up through 8/0. The high carbon steel hooks have a round eye and a curved shaft, so the point rotates toward the corner of a fish's mouth, which suits catch-and-release anglers. The mix covers bass, walleye, trout and catfish in fresh water as well as inshore salt water. A reusable hard plastic case keeps the sizes sorted in the tackle bag.
