VMC 7233 Redentex Back Hook 2/0 Coastal PTFE

VMC 7233 Redentex Back Hook 2/0 — Precision Saltwater Single Hook for Slow-Trolling with Live Bait

Designed as the mirror-image companion to the Redentex Front Hook, the VMC 7233 Redentex Back Hook (Polytetrafluoroethylene-coated) is built for anglers targeting predatory fish in saltwater through slow-trolling with natural baitfish.

Locking Curve Shape for Better Strike Conversion

The Locking Curve geometry is engineered to maximise hook-up rates when a predator strikes a slow-trolled baitfish. The inward-angled design keeps the hook point oriented for a clean, reliable set — reducing missed runs without requiring any extra effort from the angler.

Coastal PTFE Coating with Lasting Needle-Sharp Point

The Coastal PTFE finish delivers outstanding corrosion resistance in harsh saltwater environments, extending the working life of the hook well beyond uncoated alternatives. The same coating preserves the long Needle Sharp point, so the hook penetrates quickly and cleanly on the strike — even after repeated use.

Choose the Right Variant

All variants share the Locking Curve shape, Needle Sharp point, Vanadium Steel construction, and Coastal PTFE coating. Choose your size based on baitfish size and target species.

• 2/0 — 8 pieces: Current variant. A versatile mid-range size suited to medium-sized baitfish and a wide range of coastal predators.

• 3/0 — 7 pieces: Stepping up for slightly larger baits and more powerful species.

• 4/0 — 6 pieces: Locking Curve design; good for large baitfish and strong inshore or offshore predators.

• 5/0 — 5 pieces: Locking Curve design; ideal when targeting larger pelagic or bottom-dwelling predators with big baits.

• 6/0 — 4 pieces: Locking Curve design; maximum size for the range, suited to trophy predators and the largest baitfish presentations.
