Mustad Classic O’Shaughnessy Hook
The Mustad Classic O’Shaughnessy Hook is a high-strength, forged saltwater hook designed for durability and dependable performance. Featuring an open eye, it serves as an excellent replacement hook for larger spoons, plugs, or spinnerbaits without needing a split ring, making it ideal for serious saltwater anglers. Easily close the eye with the MT007 Hybrid Plier for a secure, reliable connection.
This versatile hook is also perfect for creating gang rigs. Simply pass the point of each hook through the eye of the preceding hook, using a rubber stopper for safety. Attach a split ring and swivel to the front eye and connect the leader for a multi-hook setup that maximizes bait presentation.
Best used for casting with a slow retrieve that imitates a wounded or struggling fish, the gang rig allows anglers to present larger bait on smaller hooks, increasing strike potential and improving catch rates. Whether targeting saltwater predators or big inshore game fish, the Mustad Classic O’Shaughnessy Hook delivers strength, versatility, and proven performance.
