The L2197 Baitholder Circle Hook gives anglers a high-performance circle hook with a sky-high hook-up ratio. The offset hook point paired with the circle hook design aids in hooking more fish per bite. The forged shank gives added strength without bumping up wire size, which leads to faster past-the-barb penetration. The shank also features two bait slices, keeping baits in place during long casts or sitting in current.
