Gamakatsu LS-5373 – Inward-Curved Wels Hook for Reliable Penetration in Hard Mouths

The Gamakatsu LS-5373 is a purpose-built wels catfish (Silurus glanis) hook designed for baitfish presentations, delivering exceptional hooksets even in the notoriously tough mouth of large catfish.

Heavy-Wire Construction That Handles Big Cats

Built from thick-gauge wire, the LS-5373 is engineered to withstand the prolonged, powerful fight of trophy-sized wels catfish. The robust build means the hook maintains its shape under extreme pressure, giving you confidence during the fight without worrying about the hook straightening or deforming.

Inward-Curved Point for Superior Hook-Ups

The sharp, inward-curved (inward bent) point is the defining feature of this hook. When used with break-away rigs and other wels catfish set-ups, the geometry drives the point into the hard mouth tissue at the ideal angle on the strike, improving hook-up rates significantly over straight-point alternatives.

Choose the Right Variant

The LS-5373 Wels Hook is available in multiple sizes to match your target fish and bait size. All variants share the same inward-curved point and heavy-wire construction.

Gamakatsu LS-5373 – current variant (Inward Curved): Ideal for livebaiting or deadbaiting with baitfish on break-away rigs, float rigs, buoy rigs, and anchored wels set-ups targeting wels catfish of all sizes.
Gamakatsu LS-5373 – other sizes (Inward Curved): Same hook design in alternative sizes; choose a smaller size for smaller baitfish or finesse presentations, a larger size for big deadbaits targeting specimen catfish.
