VMC 8626 O'Shaughnessy 2X-Strong X-Short Treble Hook 3/0 16.21g 5pcs

VMC 8626 O'Shaughnessy 3/0 — Extra Strength for Trolling and Thick-Bodied Lures

The VMC 8626 O'Shaughnessy treble hook in size 3/0 combines 2X-strong wire with a classic short-shank design, making it ideal for trolling and arming voluminous lures that demand maximum holding power.

Built for Hard-Fighting Fish

The 2X-strong wire construction delivers exceptional hook strength when targeting powerful species. The O'Shaughnessy bend distributes stress evenly across the hook, reducing the risk of opening under pressure. Tin coating provides solid corrosion resistance for both freshwater and saltwater applications.

Short Shank Fits Thick-Set Lures

The X-short shank design positions the hook points closer to the lure body, making it perfect for arming compact, thick-bodied plugs and swimbaits. This geometry improves hookup rates on short strikes and reduces leverage that could tear free during the fight.
