Anyone know what hook this is? I found a couple in my tackle box and I love them for wacky rigging and DS but I have 1 left and i'd like to get more.
I thought it was a Gam DS or wacky hook but the shank is shorter than the others I have. I use mostly Gam hooks so Id guess it is one of theirs.
Anyone recognize it?
Thanks
Mike |

That looks like an octopus circle hook with the tip of the hook bent out straight. It might be just a plain old octopus hook.

yes. thats it. I remember buying a pack or two of them for wacky rigs. I actually use a different hook for DS, with a longer shank. I do like these for WR though.
