The specially engineered shape of the Mustad KVD Elite Triple Grip Treble Hook combines exceptional hooking and holding capability with outstanding strength. Based upon the original Triple Grip series, the modified design of the "KVD" hook features a precise shape that almost "locks" the fish into the elbow of the bend, making it virtually impossible to throw the 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. Use it on your favorite crankbaits to get more hookups.
