🔘 Stainless Steel Circle - Riptail 96180 Review

Hook much smaller than expected, 9/0 closer to 5/0. to need. 2 stars because it's a nice sharp hook with good design but too small.

Looks like a good hook. The only thing is that the tip is thin and unusually long, making it easier to bend or blunt. The diameter is okay for this size. Suggest trimming the top instead of making it too long. This greatly strengthens the tip of the hook. I just ordered and received size 18/0. It's a good size and strength. I will buy again. Thanks connected.

I usually use 16/0 for shark fishing but other reviews made me think these hooks are a bit small. I have 20/0 hooks and my goodness they are huge. I have attached a picture of this 20/0 hook around the 16/0 hook shared by other sellers on Amazon. (Both hook tips have been slightly modified and sharpened.) Overall: Definitely not short, good quality stainless steel (slightly softer than High Carbon) and decently sharp. Would I buy again - in a smaller size. Strict lines!
