It is designed for tuna, including bluefin tuna, and other large saltwater predators. Its reinforced circle construction and wide gape suit large baits and hard fights, so choose the size to match your bait and intended fish.
The non-offset tournament circle shape is designed to settle in the mouth corner as the rod is lifted. This helps reduce deep hooking and makes removal easier, but it does not guarantee a mouth-corner hook hold on every fish.
The options are 4/0, 6/0, 8/0 and 10/0, with stated weights of 10.62 g, 11.9 g, 15.36 g and 17.91 g respectively. The shape, reinforcement and Black Nickel finish are shared. Choose by hook size rather than finish, with 4/0 the smallest and 10/0 the largest option.
No, these are loose single hooks. You need to attach them to your line or rig and check the connection before fishing. The 6/0 version contains five hooks.
Use pliers or a hook remover and check for bent points or rust before use. Store the hooks dry in a secure box or holder with their points covered when not in use. Replace damaged or corroded hooks rather than fishing with them.

The VMC 8386 CIRCLE TUNA is a reinforced single circle hook for tuna, including bluefin tuna, and other large saltwater predators. Its wide gape leaves room for large baits, while the reinforced construction is intended for hard fights. The 8386BN version has a discreet Black Nickel coating.
This tournament circle pattern is non-offset. Its shape is designed to settle in the corner of the fish's mouth as the rod is lifted, helping reduce deep hooking and making unhooking easier. These are loose hooks, not ready-tied rigs.
The family includes sizes 4/0, 6/0, 8/0 and 10/0. Choose the hook size to suit the bait and intended fish, with 4/0 the smallest and 10/0 the largest option in this range. All four share the non-offset circle shape, reinforcement and Black Nickel finish. Supplier-stated weights differ as follows:
| Hook size | Stated weight | | --- | --- | | 4/0 | 10.62 g | | 6/0 | 11.9 g | | 8/0 | 15.36 g | | 10/0 | 17.91 g |
The 6/0 version contains five hooks.
Use pliers or a hook remover to handle the sharp hooks. Check for bent points, rust or other damage before use, and replace damaged hooks. Check that the connection to the line is secure. Store the hooks dry in a secure box or hook holder, with points covered when not in use. Keep them away from unsupervised children and pets, and follow local fishing regulations.
