Delivering the proven effectiveness as the original Talisman Wacky Hook but now with more power, the Ryugi Talisman Brutal Wacky/Neko Hook is perfect for those times when you need to use a little bit heavier line and need to get fish out of cover. Featuring a medium heavy wire construction for added strength, the Ryugi Talisman Brutal Wacky/Neko Hook boasts a power bend design that keeps the hook point properly orientated for rock solid hook sets. The slick grey coating also reduces friction for better hook penetration to ensure you land more fish and camouflages the hook to help fool wary bass in clear water. Perfect for wacky rigging and neko rigging, the Ryugi Talisman Brutal Wacky/Neko Hook allows anglers to bump up their gear for bigger fish without having to worry about bending the hook out. Ryugi Japan Fishing Tackle has set out to make the best bass fishing hooks and terminal tackle on the market by questioning every aspect of design. Based out of Hyogo Japan, Ryugi stays on the forefront of cutting-edge tackle innovation by utilizing a field staff team comprised of Lake Biwa fishing guides, top Japanese tournament anglers, and even Bassmaster tournament pro Takumi Ito. The development staff at Ryugi believes fieldwork is indispensable, and aims to create products that reflect the ideas and understanding of their renowned field staff.
