The Mustad wide gap is a unique hook that offers a lot of advantages for bait fishers.

The shape of the hook lends itself perfectly to rigging crustaceans like yabbies, shrimp and cherabin, while the wide gap can also take worms, pipis and mussels without clogging up the hook point.

This is a hook that anglers should allow the fish to hook themselves with - much like a circle hook - and they will be surprised at just how effective it is. Ideal under floats for billabong barra or impoundment bass and golden perch, the Wide Gap is also effective on a running sinker rig where crustaceans are fished close to the bottom.
