Target Species & Techniques
In larger sizes, the SL12S is the go-to hook for targeting sailfish and small marlin from the boat and the Montebello Islands. Smaller sizes are perfect for tying flies targeting barramundi in remote waters, or for tropical species throughout northern. The hook's crossover into trolling applications makes it equally at home rigged behind skirted lures chasing billfish offshore.
