The Owner Stinger ST-35 Short Shank Treble Hooks are similar to the ST-36 Series trebles except they feature shorter shanks and wider gaps. The shorter shanks allow you to get away with using larger gapped hooks without the fear of the trebles fouling each other. The ST-35 trebles also feature Owner's 150-degree Premium Point Position design, which splits two hook points out 150-degrees versus the typical 120-degrees between all three points. This allows the hook points to be positioned slightly farther out from your bait and help increase your hook up percentage. Opening the gap to 150-degrees also minimizes damage to your bait from the hook points, while keeping the hook points sharper over time as well. Equipped with sticky sharp Super Needle Points and Owner's Silky Gray frictionless finish, the Owner Stinger ST-35 Short Shank Treble Hooks deliver faster hook penetration on top of their improved hook up ratio. Note: When rigging baits with the Owner Stinger ST-35 Short Shank Treble Hooks, always rig the front treble with the point in line with the eye, facing forward, and the rear treble with the point inline with the eye, facing toward the rear.
