There is no circle hook stronger than Owner's new Grander Tournament Marlin Hook. Designed to meet accepted billfish tournament specifications with its in-line, non-offset hook point that is angled 90° to the super strong shank that will handle 1,000 pound Black and Blue Marlin. Features a forged hangnail point and a black chrome finish.

Thanks for the quick turn around! I actually recently got into land based shark
fishing. I've spent a long time trying different rigs and hooks, and finally found
one that works for me. I've been using a traditional fish finder rig with an Owner
11/0 Super Mutu Offset Circle hook, but unfortunately the last shark I caught was
gut hooked and died. Luckily it was legal to harvest and although it did great on
the grill, I still prefer to catch and release. So I decided I should make a switch
to the straight forged circle hooks instead. Hopefully they'll bring even better
luck!

received the hooks today - they look the business!
I will be using them for Tarpon in the Bijagos Archipeligo off Guinea
Bissau, uisng 2-3lb Ladyfish as bait.The world record tarpon comes from
there. Last visit I lost a fish estimated at 250lb (40lb mainline mono
bitten through by Bonito after 1 hour) so am hoping for better luck this
time.
