Mustad Hooks
The Mustad Ultra Point Demon Circle hooks are tournament-grade circle hooks engineered for serious anglers who demand reliable hooksets and higher landing rates. Built with a 1X extra heavy wire and 2X extra short shank, these size 4 circle hooks handle the abuse of bigger saltwater species while their distinctive curved geometry guides the point into the corner of the mouth or lip—reducing deep-hooked fish and making them ideal for catch-and-release fishing. Whether you're live-baiting for tarpon, drifting for deep-water species, or trolling rigged baits, this 10-count pack delivers the consistent performance that has made circle hooks the choice of tournament fishermen across the world.
Circle hooks work differently than traditional J-hooks: instead of a hard strike, you simply tighten the line with a firm pump, and the hook's natural geometry does the rest. This mechanical advantage translates to better hookups on live bait presentations and fewer gut-hooked fish returned to the water. The wide gap design accommodates live baits of appropriate size while maintaining strength in the bend—critical when you're targeting species like marlin, sailfish, swordfish, or massive flatfish.
Mustad's Ultra Point technology sharpens the point for faster, cleaner penetration on the take. Available in both black nickel and blonde red finishes, these hooks are Tournament Approved by the Billfish Foundation and trusted by competitive anglers chasing everything from pelagic giants to inshore species. At size 4, they're versatile enough for medium to heavy saltwater applications while remaining manageable for a range of live baits and rigging styles.
| Hook Type | Circle (Wide Gap) |
| Size | 4 |
| Wire Strength | 1X Extra Heavy |
| Shank Length | 2X Extra Short |
| Count per Pack | 10 |
| Point Technology | Ultra Point |
| Finish Options | Black Nickel, Blonde Red |
| Tournament Status | Billfish Foundation Approved |
These hooks work well for medium to heavy saltwater applications including tarpon, marlin, sailfish, swordfish, sharks, wahoo, halibut, amberjack, striped bass, bonito, and catfish. They're also effective for larger freshwater species like pike and catfish when circumstances call for heavy-duty tackle.
Circle hooks are self-hooking—when the fish takes the bait and turns to swim away, the curved shape naturally guides the point into the corner of the mouth. You don't need a hard strike; simply tighten the line with a firm pump. This reduces missed fish and gut-hooked specimens, making circle hooks superior for catch-and-release fishing.
When live baiting, select a bait size proportional to the hook. The wide gap of size 4 Demon hooks accommodates medium-sized live baits—the exact size depends on the species you're targeting, but the bait should not dwarf or be overshadowed by the hook itself for optimal presentation and penetration.
Yes. The Mustad Demon Circle hooks are Tournament Approved by the Billfish Foundation and are widely used by competitive anglers in saltwater tournaments.
