Gamakatsu LS-3430 Hook 6 20pcs Barbless NS Black

Gamakatsu LS-3430 — Barbless Carp Hook in Size 6, NS Black, 20 pcs

The Gamakatsu LS-3430 is a dedicated carp hook built for anglers who demand consistent hook-ups across a wide range of rig setups — now in a barbless size 6 with an understated NS Black finish.

Inward-Turned Point for Reliable Hook-Ups

The slightly inward-turned point promotes a natural rotation on the take, driving the hook home with minimal effort. Whether you're fishing a hair rig on the bottom or presenting a pop-up, the geometry of the LS-3430 works with your rig to secure a solid hold in the fish's mouth.

Robust Build, Discreet Finish

Gamakatsu's NS Black coating reduces underwater reflectivity, keeping the hook inconspicuous in clear-water or pressured carp environments. The wire gauge is stout enough to handle the runs of big carp without distorting under load, giving you confidence on both boilies and wafter presentations.

Choose the Right Variant

The LS-3430 is available in a range of sizes to match your target fish and bait size. All variants share the NS Black coating, inward-turned point, and barbless design:

• Size 2 — large baits, open-water fishing, targeting big carp

• Size 4 — medium-large baits, versatile bottom and pop-up rigs

• Size 6 — balanced all-round size, suits 14–18 mm boilies, wafters, and critically balanced pop-ups; ideal for mid-sized to larger carp

• Size 8 — medium baits, wafters and snowman rigs, mixed-size carp

• Size 10 — smaller baits, 10–12 mm boilies, surface or stalking presentations

• Size 12 — small baits, particle rigs, finesse and margin fishing
