They are intended for large baits, with squid and cuttlefish explicitly named by VMC. Choose the hook size to suit your bait and intended fish, as the range runs from #6 to #8/0 rather than offering one universal size.
Within the numbered sizes, #6 is smaller than #4, #2 and #1. The /0 sizes then increase from #1/0 to #8/0. Select the size first, then check the exact supplier reference where the same size has multiple variants.
No, these are loose single hooks with an outward-turned eye for attaching the line. You need to build the rig separately. Pack contents depend on the variant: 25 or 100 hooks in the smaller sizes, and 10 hooks each in #6/0 and #8/0. These counts refer to hooks, not complete rigs.
Yes. Although the hooks are described as stainless steel, the supplied safety instructions require checks for bent points, corrosion and other damage. Replace damaged hooks and store them dry with the points protected, rather than relying on the material alone.

These strong stainless steel single hooks are intended for fishing with large baits. VMC names squid and cuttlefish as examples, making this a bait-hook range rather than a complete ready-tied rig. The stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance, while the octopus shape defines the hook pattern.
The supplier's description of the 8299S Octopus Faultless Stainless Steel Hook specifies a Cone Cut® point, an offset, curved point and an outward-turned eye. The eye is the line attachment point, so its alignment is relevant when building a bait rig. The hook is made from flat steel. No breaking strain or line-diameter compatibility is specified.
The family covers sizes #6, #4, #2, #1, #1/0, #2/0, #3/0, #4/0, #5/0, #6/0 and #8/0. In this hook-size system, #6 is smaller than #1, while the /0 sizes increase from #1/0 to #8/0. Match the hook size to the bait and intended fish rather than treating every size as interchangeable. The 25-hook packs cover #6, #4, #2, #1, #1/0, #2/0, #3/0, #4/0 and #5/0. The 100-hook packs cover #4, #2, #1, #1/0, #2/0, #4/0 and #5/0. Where both pack counts are available in the same size, choose 25 for a smaller supply or 100 for a larger reserve. The #6/0 and #8/0 versions each contain 10 hooks. Check both the size and pack count when selecting the supplier reference.
The VMC-supplied 8299SPO variants list PS (Permasteel) as their coating. The separately supplied #8/0 version is described as stainless steel without a separate coating specification. VMC also mentions other freshwater and saltwater platings under model 8299, which are separate versions, not additional finishes included here.
Handle sharp hooks with pliers or a hook remover and keep them out of reach of children and pets. Before use, check for bent points, corrosion or other damage and confirm that the line connection is secure. Store hooks dry in a protective box and cover or secure exposed points during transport. Use them only for fishing and follow local regulations.
