VMC 8626 O'Shaughnessy 2X-Strong X-Short Treble Hook 2 14.13g 10pcs

VMC 8626 O'Shaughnessy — Built for Heavy-Duty Trolling and Thick-Set Lures

The VMC 8626 treble hook combines 2X-strong wire with an extra-short shank and classic O'Shaughnessy bend, making it the go-to choice for trolling big lures and targeting powerful predators.

2X-Strong Wire for Maximum Holding Power

Constructed from heavier-gauge wire, this treble resists opening under hard strikes and sustained pressure. The reinforced design handles large pike, musky, catfish, and saltwater species that demand uncompromising hook strength.

Extra-Short Shank for Thick-Bodied Lures

The compact shank profile fits perfectly on voluminous crankbaits, swimbaits, and trolling plugs without interfering with lure action. The short design keeps hooks close to the body, reducing snags and improving hookup ratios on aggressive strikes.
