K-Sharp Snapper hooks

This is the way to buy hooks!  K-Sharp ‘snapper’ hooks are not only chemically sharpened and strong; they number up to 50 units per pack, and retail for only $10 to $12.95 per box. Excellent value for money!

Reputedly the third strongest hook on the market, K-Sharps are made from carbon steel and come in three styles:  Suicide, Long Beak and Wide Gap — in all the popular sizes.

The black coating used on the hooks is a simple lacquer rather than the potentially harmful metal finishes used on many Ï other hook brands and although durable enough in normal fishing conditions, these hooks break down relatively quickly when lost to fish or the bottom. The small barb enables hooks to go into fish mouths easily, but can be shed quickly if the fish gets away. You could say these hooks are the first eco-friendly hooks on the market!

K-Sharp hooks can be found at all good fishing tackle outlets.
