The Viper Straight Shank Hooks offer tournament grade needle point hook points for lightning fast penetration.
The straight shank design also transfers power more directly to the hook point on your hooksets, and it also has a wider bite than EWG hooks so there is more chance that the hook point is going to find a place to stick on the fish.
The Viper Straight Shank Hooks are also super strong and great for tying Snell knots.
