Upgrade Your Treble Hooks for the Upcoming Tournament Season
SAN ANTONIO, TX (July 28, 2023) – At the start of each new school year comes the beginning of a new tournament season. In preparation for another collegiate fishing season, anglers will soon start prepping their tackle and gear for tournament competition. One of the important details to tend to is the quality of the treble hooks on your hardbaits.
Gamakatsu offers a wide variety of treble hooks designed to fit many different scenarios. One of those hooks is the G-Finesse Feathered Treble Hook. This hook is great for upgrading the attraction of a topwater lure.
“I always throw a feathered treble hook on the back of mine,” said Michael Neal, Bass Pro Tour angler. “These new Gamakatsu G-Finesse Feathered Treble Hooks by Aaron Martens are going to be my go-to now.”
Based largely on the input of the late great Aaron Martens, the G-Finesse Feathered Trebles feature either white or chartreuse premium feathers and complementary tinsel, hand selected by Martens to tempt even the most finicky fish. The G-Finesse Feathered Trebles feature TGW (Tournament-Grade Wire) construction, which is thinner, stronger and sharper than the standard wire. That means anglers will use fewer of them while ensuring better hook up percentages as the fishing day goes. To complete the job, they come with a Nano Smooth Coat finish that makes penetration even easier. Add them to any fast-moving lure to create a fluid appearance or to lures that demand pauses so the motion will continue in place. They’ll excel with topwaters, crankbaits, jerkbaits and spoons. The innovative “Magic Eye” design features a beveled hook eye, so they slide right onto split rings without the need for tools.
“That’s just very visual to those fish, gives them something a little bit different,” added Neal. “It’s something that really hones them in on the bait, that they can make sure and get it on that first strike.”
Quality treble hooks are also key to high hook-up ratios when fishing with moving baits like crankbaits, jerkbaits, and lipless cranks. The Gamakatsu Treble SP Medium Heavy Hypershield is the perfect hook for upgrading your trebles.
The Treble SP Medium Heavy Hypershield features TGW (Tournament Grade Wire) which is 30% stronger than standard wire. Hypershield coating dramatically increases corrosion resistance allowing anglers to spend more time fishing and less time changing out old rusty hooks. Hypershield also keeps hooks sharper longer, making it the perfect treble hook for big, toothy fish. The Treble SP MH Hypershield is paired with the iconic ME (Magic Eye), making it extremely simple to replace existing hooks on to any split ring of a crankbait or plug. If you are looking for the best treble hook on the market for fresh or saltwater this hook is for you!
