Gamakatsu LS-3614F Hooks 4

Gamakatsu LS-3614F Hooks Size 4 — Razor-Sharp Carp Hook for Self-Hooking Rigs

The Gamakatsu LS-3614F in size 4 is a dedicated carp hook built for hair rig setups and self-hooking presentations, combining a straight, needle-sharp point with robust construction to handle hard-fighting fish.

Straight Point That Hooks and Holds

The straight, extremely sharp hook point delivers an immediate, positive hook-set the moment a carp turns against the rig. This geometry is especially effective in self-hooking (bolt rig / running lead) setups where no strike is involved — the hook finds purchase quickly and drives home under the fish's own weight.

Built to Handle Big Carp

Gamakatsu's high-carbon steel construction gives the LS-3614F the strength and stiffness to subdue powerful, hard-running carp without bending or straightening under load. The black coating blends naturally in bottom presentations, and the reliable eyelet allows easy, secure connection to both braided and monofilament hooklinks.

Choose the Right Variant

The LS-3614F is available in three sizes to match bait size, target fish, and rig setup. All variants share the same straight point, black coating, and come in packs of 25.

• Size 4 — medium-large hook; ideal for 15–24 mm boilies, pellets, and mixed particle rigs targeting specimen and large carp; a versatile all-round size for bolt rigs and running leads in most open-water and lake sessions

• Size 6 — medium hook; well-suited for 12–18 mm boilies and smaller particle baits; good choice for average-sized carp on pressured waters where a slightly smaller profile is preferred

• Size 8 — smaller hook; best matched to 10–15 mm boilies and compact bait presentations; suits stalking, close-range fishing, and situations where hook visibility needs to be minimised
