Gamakatsu LS-5213 Hooks 10pcs Nickel

Gamakatsu LS-5213 – The Worm Hook Built for Confident Hook-Ups

The Gamakatsu LS-5213 is a purpose-designed worm hook for anglers targeting fish in both freshwater and saltwater. Two bait-keeper barbs on the shank and a razor-sharp inward-curved point combine to deliver reliable hooksets and secure bait presentation.

Double Bait-Keeper Barbs for Firm Worm Hold

Two barbs positioned along the hook shank grip your worm bait firmly in place, preventing it from sliding down during casting or in current. This means less time re-rigging and more time fishing — whether you're threading a nightcrawler for eel or a lugworm for cod.

Inward-Curved Point for Clean, Reliable Penetration

The sharp, inward-curved point drives home quickly on the bite and maintains contact in the fish's mouth, reducing the chance of a shake-off during the fight. The stable construction handles the pressure of powerful fish — even a sizeable cod can be played out and landed with confidence. The eye ties easily to braided or monofilament leaders, surf rigs, and sea setups.

Choose the Right Variant

The LS-5213 is available in two point-style variants. Choose the one that matches your technique and target species:

• LS-5213 – inward curved (this product): The inward-curved point rotates into the jaw on the strike, making it an excellent choice for worm fishing in saltwater (cod with lugworm, surf rigs) and freshwater (eel with nightcrawler). Works well with braided and mono leaders.

• LS-5213 – inward bent: A tighter inward bend suited to situations where the hook must resist leverage from larger, hard-mouthed fish.
