They are intended for silverfish at commercial fisheries and natural venues, with fine wire suited to discreet pole-fishing presentations for roach and tench. They can also target F1s and smaller carp during colder months, so the supported carp use is not a general recommendation for large specimen fish.
Choose by hookbait size and presentation. #14 and #16 are larger, #18 is intermediate, and #20 and #22 are smaller. The larger options provide more bait room, while the smaller options allow a finer presentation. All sizes share the same pattern and coating, and no size-specific strength ratings are supplied.
Pellets, maggots and corn are recommended, and the supplier also supports natural and artificial baits. The wide gape accommodates different hookbaits. These are spade-end hooks rather than eyed hooks, so use a spade-end knot when tying your hooklength.
The supplier states that PTFE improves sharpness and hook longevity. The matte finish also reduces reflections, supporting a discreet presentation for cautious fish. It does not remove the need to check the hook before use or dispose of damaged hooks safely.
Each pack contains 10 hooks in the selected size. Their sharp points can cause serious injury, so transport and store them in a secure container out of children's reach and handle them carefully when preparing rigs.

Preston Sfl-B Hooks Spade End are fine-wire hooks for silverfish at commercial fisheries and natural venues. They follow the shape of the GPM-B Spade End hook but use a slightly thinner wire gauge for delicate bait presentation. They also suit F1s and smaller carp during the colder months.
The wide gape accommodates different baits and helps hold larger hookbaits securely. Recommended baits include pellets, maggots and corn, with suitability for both natural and artificial baits. The fine wire and matte surface help keep presentations discreet for cautious fish such as roach and tench, particularly when pole fishing. The spade end requires a spade-end knot rather than threading line through an eye.
The PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) coating improves hook sharpness and longevity. Its matte finish reduces reflections, complementing the fine wire when fish are wary.
Choose from sizes #14, #16, #18, #20 and #22, with 10 hooks per pack. #14 and #16 are the larger options, #18 sits in the middle, and #20 and #22 are smaller. Match the hook size to the hookbait and the presentation you want, balancing room for the bait against a finer presentation. All five sizes share the spade end, wide-gape shape and PTFE coating. No size-specific wire diameters or strength ratings are supplied.
Sharp hooks can cause serious injury. Handle them carefully and check suitability for the intended use. Transport and store them in a secure container out of children's reach. Dispose of used or damaged hooks safely to prevent injury. The supplier states that the manufacturer is not liable for damage or injury resulting from improper use, storage or transport.
