Gamakatsu SL12S Short

The SL12S or Big Game is one of Gamakatsu’s most popular hooks for a variety of uses, including rigged hooks in skirts for sportsfish such as marlin and flies for saltwater species and even tarpon overseas. The new hook is a short shank version of the SL12S which is designed to accommodate smaller fly designs while maintaining exceptional strength.

The new SL12S Short has a wide gap, increased wire size for strength, features a straight eye, and a nickel finish. It is sure to become equal to or even more popular than the original SL12S.

This hook will cover you for tuskies, bonefish, triggers and permit, and can be used as a trailer, or second hook on saltwater flies.

The SL12S Short is available in sizes #4, 2, 1, 1/0, 2/0, 3/0 and 4/0 and is available in pre-packs and 25 packs.
