The Mustad Sproat Worm Hook features a razor-sharp knife-edge hook point and a long shank with barbs/slices at the top the shank to better hold the natural worm bait in position. The sproat bend hook is a general-purpose hook with a straight eye. Use it with rag or sandworms targeting a whole range of species, such as Fluke, Striped Bass, Flounder, Plaice or Bluefish. 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 features a blue finish for additional attraction to the bait.
