Gamakatsu C12 Scud Hooks

Whenever you&';re fishing spring creeks or tailwaters that are packed with freshwater shrimp and scuds, Gamakatsu has just the right hook with their C12 Scud Hooks. Built with a nice wide gap and a super sharp point, these barbed hooks have no trouble penetrating those large fish, and with sizes 10 through 16, you can whip up most sizes of amphipods that you&';ll run across.UsesWhile Gamakatsu&';s C12 Hooks were designed with scuds and sowbugs in mind, you can also use them to tie general nymphs and larvae patterns just the same. With a curved bend, this hook is great for insects that aren&';t flat-bodied.ComparisonsA hook that&';s quite similar to Gamakatsu&';s C12 is the Daiichi 1130 Wide Gap Scud Hook. Just like the C12, this hook has a nice wide gap and a super sharp point, however, one key difference is that it&';s offered in sizes 10-24, which is a lot more encompassing than the C12&';s sizes of 10 through 16.
