Mustad 39960-DT Tuna Circle Hooks – 12/0 – 2pk

The Mustad 39960-DT Tuna Circle hooks are a top choice for tournament anglers and commercial fishermen alike. These premium grade hooks are engineered specifically for tuna and shark fishing, applying an optimum design that ensures better catch rates and sustainable fishing practices. With a circular shape, the hook is designed to hook the fish in the corner of its mouth, thereby reducing gut hooking and promoting a healthier release.

One of the key advantages of the Mustad 39960-DT hooks is their 2X-Strong inline construction, which affords them the durability to withstand the struggles of large and powerful game fish. Additionally, the Duratin finish not only protects the hooks from the harsh conditions of the saltwater environment, maximizing their usable life span, but also ensures that if a fish breaks away with a hook, it will eventually rust out, which is an essential feature for those who prioritize catch and release fishing.

These circle hooks are available in a variety of sizes and pack configurations, making them versatile for numerous fishing scenarios:

• Pack sizes available in 2, 5, 25, and 100, making it possible to buy in bulk or sample the hooks.
• A range of hook sizes from 8/0 up to 20/0, to accommodate a wide range of bait sizes and target species.
• Suitable for both trophy hunting in tournaments and high-efficiency needs of commercial longline fishing.
