Mustad 39965-DT 2X Strong Tuna Circle Hooks

The 2X extra heavy wire Mustad 39965-DT Tuna Circle Hooks is a true circle hook offering the best hookup ratios. The distinct curved shape of the circle hook will, when the fish takes the baited hook and swallows it, ensure that the hook travels to the corner of the mouth or lip, resulting in fewer deep-hooked fish. This strong circle hook can be used for a whole range of applications from drifting, trolling or kiting. When live baiting, always choose a hook size that matches the bait. Setting the hook is more of a firm tightening of the line, than an actual strike. The open eye makes it possible to easily attach it to a split ring, swivel or welded ring by using a pair of pliers. The “MTL-V1” point combines a more efficient point design with a new sharpening process to enhance the quality. The result is a sharper, sleek new point shape with penetration resistance 50% lower than standard Classic Hook points! Mustad's Wire Technology and Nor-Tempering Process means that hooks are lighter and up to 30% stronger. The hook has a kirbed hook point for improved hooking potential and Duratin coating for high corrosion resistance. Old Model Number: 39965D Specs & Features
