Whether you are a professional lure tier or a DIY angler, we provide the foundation for success.

1. Standard Round Bend Hooks

The gold standard for versatility. These hooks provide a consistent, reliable hookset for a wide variety of species.

Models: Available in Eagle Claw 570, L3052, L786, L2798, and L098 styles.
Best For: General purpose jigging for walleye, bass, and panfish.

2. Performance Sickle Hooks

Designed with a unique "V" bend that pins fish securely, sickle hooks are a favorite for anglers who need maximum holding power.

Models: Choose from Eagle Claw 500BP (Black) or Red Eagle Claw 500 sickle hooks.
Technical Note: Sickle hooks are compatible only with our jig molds designed for 570, 500, and L3052 hook frames.

3. Specialized Red Sickle Hooks

A top choice for hobbyists tying their own hair or feather jigs. The vibrant red finish acts as a natural "blood trail" strike trigger, blending seamlessly with red-themed tying materials to create a lifelike, wounded-baitfish presentation.
