Description

The Kurv Shank is a very versatile hook and can be used with both pop-up and bottom bait rigs, including popular presentations such as the KD and IQ D-rig. It has great hooking properties thanks to an aggressively in-turned eye and curved shank, which helps it to flip round and take a hold inside the mouth, even when using it without Shrink Tube or a Kicker. Hooking potential is also aided by its long, needle sharp point. This popular pattern is now available in a Kurv Shank X version, and is perfect for when you want something stronger than the standard hook, but don’t need a hook as heavy and thick-wired as the XX model. The Kurv Shank X comes in sizes 2, 4, 6 and 8, supplied in packs of ten.
