The Stellar Hook is a true kahle hook featuring a wide gap, offering the best hookup ratios. No wonder it is so popular among tournament fishermen. It features a 1X extra heavy wire and 2X extra short shank, making it perfect to battle heavier and bigger fish. The distinct curved shape of the wide gap hook will, when the fish takes the baited hook and swallows it, ensure that the hook travels to the corner of the mouth or lip, resulting in fewer deep-hooked fish. When live baiting, always choose a hook size that matches the bait. Setting the hook is more of a firm tightening of the line, than an actual strike. It is in other words, the ultimate Catch & Release hook.
