The Kurv Shank is a very versatile hook and can be used with both pop-up and bottom bait rigs, including popular presentations like the KD and IQ D-rig. It has excellent hooking properties thanks to an outward-facing eye and curved shank, which help it turn and take a bite inside the mouth, even when used without a shrink tube or kicker.
The hooking potential is also aided by its long, pointed needle-like tip.
This popular pattern is now available in a Kurv Shank X version and is perfect for when you want something stronger than the standard hook, but don't need such a heavy, thick-wired hook as the XX pattern.
The Kurv Shank X is available in sizes 2, 4, 6 and 8, supplied in packs of ten.
