The Gamakatsu G Finesse Treble Hooks are in a class of their own. These very high grade wire hooks feature a nano coating called Nano Smooth Technology that allows for better hook penetration because the smoothness of the hook slices through much easier. The hook point stays sharper because the grade of wire is better, similar to a good knife or a bad knife. Additionally, it has a short shank and a duller finish so it doesn&';t reflect light spooking fish.
