Heavy-Duty Circle Hooks for Large Deep-Water Species
The Sakuma 445 Circle Extra Hook is the heavy-duty version of the popular 440 Circle hook, specifically designed in a range of larger sizes for tackling robust, hard-fighting species. These hooks are perfectly suitable for tackling species such as Shark, Skate, Conger, and Ray in deep water and fast tides where maximum strength and reliability are essential.
This pattern is built to handle extreme pressure, featuring a super strong forged bend that is also beneficial for effectively presenting bulky baits. A significant benefit of the circle hook design is the reduced risk of damage to the fish due to deep hooking and the elimination of the need to strike, as the fish will automatically hook themselves.
