Gamakatsu Pro-C Powercarp Hook 12 Barbless Eyed PTFE

Gamakatsu Pro-C Powercarp Hook 12 Barbless Eyed PTFE — Precise Penetration, Fish-Friendly Design

The Gamakatsu Pro-C Powercarp Eyed PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) Barbless hook in size 12 is engineered for the modern carp angler who demands both performance and fish welfare. Robust A1 steel construction and a low-friction coating combine to deliver fast, deep hook-ups every time.

PTFE Coating for Faster, Deeper Hook-Ups

The PTFE coating dramatically reduces surface friction as the hook point enters, allowing it to penetrate quickly and seat deeply with minimal force. This is especially valuable when fishing at range or with lighter rigs where hook-set energy is limited.

Barbless for Fish Care and Compliance

The barbless construction allows quick, low-stress unhooking, reducing handling time and physical damage to the fish. This makes the size 12 ideal for waters where barbless hooks are mandatory, as well as for any angler who prioritises careful catch-and-release practice. The straight shank and curved point geometry work together to maintain a secure hold throughout the fight, compensating for the absence of a barb.

Choose the Right Variant

All variants share the same eyed, barbless, curved-point design in A1 steel with PTFE coating. Select your size based on bait presentation and target fish size:

• Size 10 — larger hook for bigger baits (corn, large boilies) and open-water carp fishing targeting bigger fish

• Size 12 — versatile mid-range size suited to standard boilies, pellets, and pop-ups; a reliable all-round choice for mixed carp fishing

• Size 14 — smaller profile for wary fish, refined presentations, and smaller baits such as mini boilies or single grains

• Size 16 — finesse fishing, highly pressured waters, or small particle baits where a subtle hook is needed
