VMC 7317 Texan 3X Strong Wide Gap Hook 2/0 4.37g Tin 5pcs

VMC 7317 Texan 3X Strong Wide Gap Hook — Built for Heavy Cover

The VMC 7317 Texan hook combines 3X reinforced wire with a wide gap design to pull predators from the thickest cover without bending or breaking.

3X Strong Wire for Aggressive Fishing

The triple-reinforced wire lets you apply maximum pressure during the fight, even around wood, rocks, or dense vegetation. The extra strength means you can force fish out of structure rather than finesse them—critical when fishing weedless soft plastics in challenging conditions.

Extremely Sharp and Durable Point

VMC engineers the point for both penetration and longevity. The needle-sharp tip drives home on the hookset, while the reinforced geometry resists dulling after contact with hard structure or multiple fish.

Choose the Right Variant

The 7317 series is available in multiple sizes and finishes to match your target species and environment:

• 2/0 / Tin (4.37 g, current variant) — ideal for mid-sized soft plastics in saltwater weedless rigs; tin coating offers excellent corrosion resistance for coastal predators

• 3/0 / Tin (5.47 g) — step up for larger baits and heavier saltwater applications

• 4/0 / Black Nickel (7.08 g) — freshwater workhorse for big bass and pike in heavy cover

• 5/0 / Black Nickel (8.84 g) — maximum size for oversized creature baits and magnum swimbaits in freshwater

• 5/0 / Tin (8.84 g) — largest option with saltwater-ready tin plating for redfish, snook, and inshore species
