Target Species & Techniques
Long shank hooks excel with soft baits like worms, prawns, and pipis. The extended shank protects your leader from toothy species and makes de-hooking quick and easy. Sizes No.10 and No.8 suit herring, garfish, and small bream. No.6 and No.4 are the classic sizes for whiting and bream. No.2 and No.1 handle flathead and tailor. The 1/0 size suits larger estuary species. Perfect on paternoster rigs, float setups, and running sinker presentations.
