Gamakatsu LS-5260 – Reliable Worm Hook for Predator and Coarse Fishing

The Gamakatsu LS-5260 is a purpose-built worm hook (Plättchenhaken) that keeps your bait firmly in place and drives home cleanly on the strike — in both fresh and saltwater.

Double-Barb Shank Keeps Worms Where They Belong

Two barbs positioned along the hook shank grip earthworms and lugworms securely, so your bait stays presented naturally without constantly sliding down. This means fewer re-baiting stops and more time with your hook in the water.

Inward-Curved Point for Positive Hook-Ups

The sharp, inward-curved point is designed to find purchase quickly in the corner of a fish's mouth. Whether a bream sucks in an earthworm or a flounder mouths a lugworm, the geometry converts tentative takes into solid hook-sets.
