Gamakatsu LS-5213 Hook Nickel Barbed

Gamakatsu LS-5213 – Worm Hook Nickel Barbed for Reliable Bait Hold in Sea and Freshwater

The Gamakatsu LS-5213 worm hook (Wurmhaken) is a trusted single hook designed for anglers targeting flatfish and cod from the surf, as well as eel fishing in freshwater with natural worm baits.

Inward-Bent Point for Positive Hook Sets

The sharp, inward-bent point drives home reliably on the take, maximising contact with the fish's mouth. This geometry reduces the chance of the hook pulling free during the fight, giving you confidence when targeting hard-mouthed species on the bottom.

Double Barbs on the Shank Keep Worm Baits Secure

Two barbs positioned along the hook shank grip lugworm, earthworm, and similar baits firmly in place through long casting distances and strong tidal currents. The nickel coating provides a clean, bright finish suited to both saltwater surf rigs and freshwater setups.
