Description

The point length has been increased to mirror the hugely successful Trig and Chod Hammers resulting in incredibly sharp hooks straight out of the packet. On the two largest sizes 4 and 5 the wire gauge has been stepped up by 0.1mm for improved strength and the heavy forging helps accentuates this. However due to the point length to wire diameter ratio used the points are still long, fine and needle sharp. The twin tempering process of heat and cryogenic tempering ensures formidable strength and point durability with just the right degree of shock absorbing ‘spring’ – neither too soft nor too brittle. As per all the other Cryogen hooks in the range, these feature a slick PTFE Tuflon coating and micro barbs which ensure excellent penetration and secure hook holds. Enlarged eye diameters pro-rata across the range of sizes allow for thicker monofilaments to be used with the knotless knot. Available in sizes 4,5,6,7 & 8 in barbed and barbless.

Field Notes

Use these hooks for carp presentations where you need a sharp, durable point for reliable penetration. They’re designed for knotless-knot tying and can be used with monofilament lines; choose barbed or barbless depending on your regulations and preference.

Pros

  • Cryogenic tempering for strength and point durability
  • PTFE Tuflon slick coating for improved penetration
  • Micro barbs for secure hook holds (barbed version)
  • Long, fine, needle-sharp points out of the packet
  • Enlarged eye for thicker monofilaments with knotless knot

Cons
