Daiichi, Tru Turn Hooks

 

Click on Images to enlarge

Tru-Turn Worm'n, Blue with Hitchhiker # 240ZS

Your plastics stay attached to the hook better in the sense that they do not slide down off of the eye of the hook. They make re-rigging very fast and efficient with almost no possibility of inserting the hook improperly.

 

The days off poking multiple holes in your bait trying to hit that perfect spot for rigging a straight bait are over. These hooks are great for any fresh or light salt water fishing application. 

 

Available in sizes 1/0, 2/0, 3/0 and 4/0; 4 or 3 to a pak

Daiichi Copperhead Twitchbait & Tube Hook #D65Z

Copperhead Bleeding Bait

The ease of rigging a Copperhead Bleeding Hook is a huge selling point. With the Copperhead, the plastic jerk bait was held in place every time. That meant less time rigging and re-rigging after hits, and more time fishing. A key when time is money!

 

Another advantage is the absolute sharpness of the hook. I missed fewer strikes with these hooks compared to other jerk bait hooks. It had no trouble penetrating the bait and the fish, and held on!   This is a favorite for Jerkbaits, Frogs and Flipping. Tests prove highest hook-up ratio over “Extra Wide” or “XGap” style hooks.

 

Available in sizes 2/0, 3/0 4/0 and 5/0; 5 or 4 to a pak

Daiichi Circle Chunk Light Bleeding Bait Hook #D84VP

Black Nickel Patented

The StopGap feature keeps bait out of hook up zone. Amazing strength-to-weight ratio Tournament Approved, Value Pack

 

After a fish inhales your bait, they turn away while “mashing” or killing its meal. It’s that turn that is critical. The circle hook slides back through the fish’s mouth to the angle change of the lip. Bingo! He’s hooked. That’s why you don’t set the hook with circle hooks, just lift the rod or reel in the line slowly until the battle begins!

 

Available in sizes 1/0, 3/0, 5/0 and 7/0; 24, 20, 13 or 10 per pak
