Ideal for those fishing in snaggy conditions in the UK or for
overseas fishing this is the Wide Gape X version. This is a really classic
pattern of hook and the Wide Gape has accounted for a huge number of big carp
captures over the many years since it was first launched. It is based on an old
classic spade end hook pattern from the 1980s and 1990s which found favour with
many anglers at the time – the Maruta Kinryu – but we have improved it and made
it more user-friendly by switching the spade for an eye. The Wide Gape features
a slightly in-turned eye, with a short shank, heavily forged bend, and very sharp,
beaked point. It can be used with a wide variety of different pop-up and bottom
bait presentations, and once it goes in it tends to stay in.
Sizes 2, 4, 6, 8, 10
10 hooks per pack.
