Hayabusa H.SDE198 - Red (RD)

The red-finished SDE198. A long, straight-shanked eyed hook with a small narrow bend and a straight point, forged through the bend — the long shank holds a worm straight rather than letting it bunch behind the bend, and gives you something to grip when you unhook.

Sizes 15 down to 6 (Japanese 2.5 to 9), fifteen to a card. The 15s and 14s are fine-bait sizes on light line; 9 to 6 will take a whole worm or a cut strip. Red.
