Based upon the original Triple Grip® series, the modified design by Kevin VanDam features a precise shape that \"locks\" a fish into the elbow of the bend, making it virtually impossible to throw the fish hook. The precise point alignment provides for an optimal angle of point impact, which leads to increased power at hook set. One important bonus is that the angled shape makes this hook less prone to snagging on structure than round bend trebles. The 2X short shank eliminates hook tangling and allows you to use larger hooks. Use this premium treble hook for fishing bass, pike, zander, and more on your favorite heavy freshwater crankbaits to get more hookups. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4.3 UltraPoint®
