Gamakatsu Offset EWG 2 5pcs

Gamakatsu Offset EWG — Weedless Softbait Hook for Predator Fishing

The Gamakatsu Offset EWG (Extra Wide Gap) with Silicon Stopper is a precision offset hook built for lure anglers targeting perch, pike, and zander with softbaits in demanding conditions.

Weedless Rigging in Weedy and Snaggy Water

The offset design lets you lay the hook point flush along the back of your softbait, keeping it virtually weed-free as you work through dense vegetation, reeds, or woody cover. When a predator strikes, the lure compresses, the point kicks clear, and the wide gap drives home a solid hook set — all without the constant snag frustration of a conventional jig hook.

Silicon Stopper for a Secure, Cast-Proof Hold

The included silicon stopper locks your shad, creature bait, or grub firmly onto the hook shank. Even aggressive casts and hard strikes won't slide the bait out of position, so your presentation stays true throughout the session. Pair the hook with a weightless or belly-weighted rig, or thread it through a weedless jig head for maximum action and freedom of movement.

Choose the Right Variant

The Gamakatsu Offset EWG with Silicon Stopper is available across a range of hook sizes to match your softbait and target species:

• Size 2 — 5 pieces (current product): A medium-small hook ideal for compact finesse shads and small creature baits; well suited to perch fishing with 2–4 inch lures in pressured or clear water.

• Size 1 — 5 pieces: Steps up slightly for medium shads; a versatile all-round size for perch and smaller zander.

• Size 4 — 5 pieces: A smaller option for drop-shot-style finesse rigs or mini softbaits targeting perch.

• Size 4/0 — 4 pieces: A large hook for big shads and pike-sized paddletails, 5–7 inch lures.

• Size 3/0 — 4 pieces: Great for medium-large zander and pike setups with 4–6 inch softbaits.

• Size 5/0 — 4 pieces: Extra-wide gap for oversized creature baits and large pike lures.
