VMC 9617 Treble Hook 1 12g

VMC 9617 Size 1 — Proven Treble for Baitfish Rigs

The VMC 9617 O'Shaughnessy treble hook is Europe's most popular hook for building reliable baitfish rigs. Size 1 in Permasteel coating delivers solid corrosion resistance and sharpness for pike, zander, and catfish presentations.

Versatile Size for Medium Predators

Size 1 strikes the balance between holding power and bait presentation. The classic O'Shaughnessy bend provides strong hooking geometry for both dead and live bait rigs targeting pike, zander, and medium catfish. Ten hooks per pack give you plenty for the season.

Permasteel Coating for Freshwater Durability

Permasteel coating offers good corrosion resistance in freshwater applications. The coating maintains hook sharpness through multiple sessions while allowing you to re-sharpen points when needed. Suitable for both stationary and trolling setups.
