Gamakatsu LS-1223 N/L — Long-Shank Eye Hook for Natural Baits

The Gamakatsu LS-1223 N/L is a versatile, long-shank eyed hook designed for natural baits and a wide range of target species — from peaceful coarse fish to predators like perch and eel.

Built for Small-Mouthed Fish

The long shank and narrow hook bend allow even small-mouthed fish to take the bait comfortably and deeply. Worms, maggot bunches, and small live- or deadbaits sit naturally on the shank, presenting the bait in a lifelike way without restricting movement.

Inward-Curved Point for Secure Hook-Sets

The sharp, inward-curved point (NS Black finish) increases the chance of a solid hook-set on the strike and maintains a reliable hold in the fish's mouth throughout the fight — reducing the risk of the hook backing out under pressure.
