Premium quality hooks - Made in Japan
The Gamakatsu LS 4644 has been primarily designed for big (live) baits and really big fish. Although the hook is rather big and incredibly strong, it is yet light enough to achieve good hook setting. The unique bend of the LS 4644 is similar to an Octopus hook, but has a slightly more exaggerated slope off the back with a harder angle bend at the bottom and slight beak point. This bend provides an extra gap to accommodate much larger baits for big catfish and sturgeon.

Features of Gamakatsu Hooks
High Carbon Steel
The most premium grade of High Carbon Steel is used to manufacture Gamakatsu hooks. Not only does this material contain a higher percentage of carbon, it also has no impurities. This insures protection against any blemishes in the metal that can weaken the hook.
Tempering System
Gamakatsu has the most advanced tempering system in the world. This enables hooks to be tempered in a stable condition. Every hook is heated to the exact temperature that is perfect for that particular style and size then cooled in oil. This process produces hooks which are super strong, but not brittle. It is extremely difficult to achieve a balance between strength and flexibility, and it took many years for Gamakatsu to perfect this process.
Perfect Sharpness
Gamakatsu Hooks ares famous for perfect sharpness! Gamakatsus sharpening process results in a perfectly conical point that is unequalled in sharpness.
