Gamakatsu LS-5213 Hooks Red 2 Barbs on Hook Shank

Gamakatsu LS-5213 Hooks Red — Secure Worm Bait Hold for Surf and Eel Fishing

The Gamakatsu LS-5213 worm hook in red is a versatile single hook built for surf casting and eel fishing, equally at home in fresh and saltwater.

Two Shank Barbs Keep Your Bait in Place

Two barbs positioned along the hook shank grip worm baits firmly, preventing them from sliding down during casting or retrieve. Whether you're threading a lugworm for flatfish or a earthworm for eel, your presentation stays intact from cast to bite.

Inward-Curved Point for Reliable Hook-Up

The sharp, inward-curved point is designed to turn and set decisively into the fish's mouth at the strike. This geometry reduces the chance of the hook slipping out and helps maintain a secure hold throughout the fight — particularly useful when targeting cod or flatfish in surf conditions.

The LS-5213 is available in different configurations. Select the one that suits your target species and fishing setup:
