Gamakatsu LS-5314 Hook 8 10 Single Hook Curved In

Gamakatsu LS-5314 — Curved-In Single Hook for Reliable Carp and Coarse Fishing

The Gamakatsu LS-5314 in size 8 is a precision-forged black single hook designed for hair rigs and running rigs targeting carp and other large coarse fish. This pack of 10 gives you everything you need for a serious session on the bank.

Curved-In Point for a Decisive Hook-Up

The inward-curved, razor-sharp hook point is engineered to rotate and find its hold as soon as a fish takes the bait, making it especially effective with self-hooking setups. Whether you are fishing bolt rigs or inline leads, the geometry works with the fish's movement rather than against it, turning tentative takes into solid connections.

Outward-Turned Eye for Easy, Secure Knots

The outward-turned eye keeps your knot in line with the hook shank, making it straightforward to tie directly to braided or monofilament hooklinks. The robust black-coated wire holds up to the power of hard-fighting carp while remaining light enough for a natural bait presentation with boilies, pellets, and particle baits such as hard sweetcorn.

Choose the Right Variant

The LS-5314 is available in several sizes and pack quantities to match your target species and rig style. Select the size that fits your bait and the fish you are after — larger sizes suit bigger baits and specimen fish, while smaller sizes like this size 8 are ideal for refined presentations and mid-sized carp or barbel.
