VMC 9626 O'Shaughnessy 2X-Strong X-Short Treble Hook 17.36g 1 10pcs Permasteel

VMC 9626 O'Shaughnessy Treble Hook — Built for Tough Species

The VMC 9626 O'Shaughnessy is a 2X-strong, extra-short-shank treble designed for powerful fish and demanding conditions. Its robust wire and compact geometry reduce hook tangling while delivering maximum holding power.

2X-Strong Wire for Reliable Hooksets

Constructed with reinforced wire, this hook handles hard-fighting species without bending or opening. The O'Shaughnessy bend distributes load evenly across the hook, making it ideal for large predators in both freshwater and saltwater.

Extra-Short Shank Prevents Line Tangles

The compact shank design minimizes hook crossing and line fouling, a critical advantage when rigging lures or live-bait rigs with multiple trebles. This geometry keeps your presentation clean and effective.
