It is designed to equip hardbaits and jigs, including for saltwater predator fishing. The supplier also lists saltwater flies, live bait and trolling. Its coated braid prevents lure leverage and eases split-ring changes, so choose the size to suit your intended lure or bait rather than a supplied compatibility chart.
The differences are hook size and stated weight: #2 weighs 1.2 g, #4 weighs 1 g, #6 weighs 0.8 g and #8 weighs 0.7 g. Choose #2 for the largest hook in this family or #8 for the smallest and lightest, with #4 and #6 as intermediate options. The braid, coating, point, micro barb and tinsel are shared.
No, it has a micro barb. The NT (PTFE) coating, super-long Needle Sharp™ point and micro barb support fast penetration, and the supplier links the micro barb to catch and release. If your water requires barbless hooks, this is not a barbless model.
Use pliers or a hook remover and store the hooks dry in a secure box or hook holder. Although described as corrosion-resistant, they must still be checked for rust, damage and bent points before use. Replace affected hooks and keep sharp points secured and away from children and pets.

The VMC 7122SA Mini Assist Hook equips hardbaits and jigs for predator fishing, including saltwater use. Its coated assist braid prevents the lure from acting as a lever during the fight and makes split-ring changes easier. The braid has a stated breaking strain of approximately 15.9 kg (35 lb).
The NT (PTFE) coating supports quick hook penetration. A super-long Needle Sharp™ point and micro barb improve penetration speed, with the micro barb also intended to support catch and release. This is a barbed hook, not a barbless pattern. The hook uses Vanadium wire and is described as corrosion-resistant, making it suitable for its stated sea-fishing use.
UV tinsel is fitted to the assist hook. The supplier advises trimming it when fishing pressure is high, allowing the dressing to be reduced rather than changing the entire hook. Besides hardbaits and jigs, the supplier also lists saltwater flies, live bait and trolling as uses.
The family comprises #2 at 1.2 g, #4 at 1 g, #6 at 0.8 g and #8 at 0.7 g. #2 is the largest and heaviest option, #8 the smallest and lightest, with #4 and #6 between them. Choose a hook size that suits your lure or bait and account for the stated weight when equipping it. No lure-size compatibility chart is supplied. All four versions share the coated braid, PTFE finish, Needle Sharp™ point, micro barb and UV tinsel.
Use pliers or a hook remover to avoid the sharp point. Check the hook and attachment before fishing, and replace damaged, bent or corroded parts. Store the hooks dry in a secure box or hook holder and keep them out of reach of children and pets. Use only for fishing and follow local regulations.
