Mustad Extra Long Baitholder Hook – Black Nickel Finish
The Mustad Extra Long Baitholder Hook is a highly versatile bait and soft-plastic hook designed to deliver secure bait presentation, exceptional penetration, and dependable strength across both freshwater and saltwater applications. Featuring an extra-long shank with integrated bait-holding discs along the shaft, this hook is engineered to keep natural baits firmly in position while helping to mask the hook for more natural presentations.
Originally developed for bottom-feeding species such as perch, cod, and haddock, this pattern excels when fishing with large natural baits including ragworms, lugworms, sandeel, and similar soft baits. The long shank and secure bait-holding design also make it an excellent option for soft plastic worms, shads, and grubs, targeting species such as bass, walleye, and perch.
Built using Mustad’s renowned 4.3 UltraPoint® Technology, the Opti-Angle needle point delivers outstanding sharpness with long-lasting edge retention, allowing anglers to fish smaller hooks with absolute confidence. Mustad’s Nor-Tempered forging process creates a fine-grained microstructure that is up to 30% stronger than conventionally tempered hooks, ensuring the hook resists deformation under heavy pressure.
Finished with Mustad’s Caris Black Nickel coating, this hook offers corrosion resistance up to four times greater than traditional black nickel, making it suitable for demanding saltwater environments while maintaining a discreet, low-glare appearance.
