VMC 9626 O'Shaughnessy 2X-Strong X-Short Treble Hook 10.85g 1/0 5pcs Permasteel

VMC 9626 O'Shaughnessy — Built to Hold Tough Species

The VMC 9626 O'Shaughnessy treble hook brings classic reliability and 2X-strong wire to your lure rigging. The extra-short shank reduces line tangles, while the Permasteel coating delivers corrosion resistance for both fresh and saltwater fishing.

2X-Strong Wire for Fighting Power

Forged from 2X-strong wire, this hook handles hard-fighting species without bending or opening. The O'Shaughnessy bend distributes load evenly across the hook, giving you confidence during intense battles with pike, musky, saltwater predators, and other powerful fish.

Extra-Short Shank Prevents Tangling

The extra-short shank design keeps treble points separated and minimizes hook-to-hook or hook-to-line fouling during the cast and retrieve. Fewer tangles mean more time fishing and cleaner presentations on plugs, spoons, and soft-plastic swimbaits.
