Overview
This is a pack of 20 stainless steel hair rig hooks for carp fishing, sold under the Carp brand as model 1. The curved, barbed shanks come in a mixed size run of 2, 4, 6, and 8 so one pack covers several bait sizes.
Hair rigs let a carp pick up a hook bait and feel very little resistance before the barb sets, which is why the technique dominates modern carp fishing. Because this pack mixes four hook sizes, anglers can match hook size to boilie or pellet diameter without buying four separate packs.
- 20 curved shank hooks per pack
- Mixed sizes 2, 4, 6 and 8
- Stainless steel, barbed point
- Built for the hair rig carp fishing technique
Who it's for
Suited to carp anglers who already tie or use ready made hair rigs with boilies, pellets, or pop ups. Not a fit for anglers who fish bait threaded directly onto the hook, since a hair rig needs a baiting needle and hair loop to use as intended.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Mixed 2/4/6/8 sizing covers several bait sizes in one pack
- Stainless steel construction resists rust in freshwater
- 20 hooks per pack for restocking a rig box
- Barbed only, not an option where barbless hooks are required
- No pre-tied hair or line included, just the hooks
Performance notes
The curved shank is designed to turn and set in the corner of a carp's mouth as it moves off with the bait, and the barb is meant to hold once set. Barbed hooks are restricted on some carp waters, so check local rules before use.
