Octopus Inline Point Circle Hooks,
Now in Larger Value Packs

Tacoma, Washington (July 17, 2020) Anglers can’t get enough of the Gamakatsu Octopus Inline Point Circle Hook’s versatility and fish-holding power. So, these popular tournament-legal inline point circle hooks are now available in convenient 25 hook value packs in a range of sizes to suit both saltwater and freshwater anglers.
Octopus circle hooks penetrate deeper and hold fish longer than standard hooks. The secret is its point, bent at a 90-degree angle to the shank, which catches in the fish’s mouth.
Gamakatsu’s Octopus Inline Point Circle hooks are short-shanked with a rounded shank and bend. The unique design allows the hook to glide out of the throat into the mouth for a solid hookup when the angler starts reeling. Both new and seasoned anglers love how well these hooks work because circle hooks don’t require a standard hard, hook set-keep the line tight after a strike and the hook ‘sets’ itself.
A circle hook’s wide gap and rounded shape work well for bait fishing when a small hook is essential for a natural presentation. The Octopus Inline Point Circle Hook has a bent eye to streamline snelling or tie a knot directly to the eye as with any other hook. Gamakatsu hooks use heavy wire to handle the demands of big game fishing. Just like all Gamakatsu Hooks, the Octopus Inline Point Circle Hook is strong, ultra-sharp and ready-to-use right out of the package. Now that package is even bigger!
