VMC 7316 Texan 1X Strong Wide Gap Hook 5/0 6.15g 5pcs Black Nickel

VMC 7316 Texan — Versatile wide-gap hook for slugs, worms and creature baits

The VMC 7316 Texan is a forged worm hook with a wide gap and 1X strong construction, delivering reliable performance for finesse presentations and weedless rigging.

Wide gap for bulky soft plastics

The wide gap design provides ample room for slugs, creature baits and thick-bodied worms, ensuring proper hook sets even with voluminous lures. The offset point creates a natural weedless presentation when rigged Texas-style.

1X strong forged construction

Forged from high-carbon steel with black nickel coating, the 7316 Texan balances strength and sharpness. The 1X strong wire handles larger fish without sacrificing penetration on light strikes.
