A fine wire hook this size goes in easily, then straightens under drag. The KR-27 keeps the short profile that fits a small mouth and a small bait, but is built in heavier, high-strength wire so it holds its shape when a good fish leans on it — the deliberate opposite of the KR-24. Five sizes, #14 to #22, eighteen per pack, black nickel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSmall, short profile that still fits micro baits and small mouths\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeavy, high-strength wire that resists opening under drag pressure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWorks with micro jigs, small soft plastics and small natural baits\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFive sizes, #14 through #22, eighteen per pack, black nickel; made in Japan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow To Rig It\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMicro jig rear or assist single\u003c\/strong\u003e — Mount on a split ring so it swings; the stronger wire takes a heavier drag than a fine hook this size would.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSmall soft plastic, nose rig\u003c\/strong\u003e — Point in and straight out through the nose so the body hangs free; do not thread the plastic down this short shank.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlug single conversion\u003c\/strong\u003e — Replace small trebles on compact hard baits when fish above the lure's class are likely, or where singles are required.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSmall natural bait\u003c\/strong\u003e — A single small shrimp, a short worm section or a piece of squid, hooked once with the point fully exposed.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTarget Species By Region\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSoutheast Asia\u003c\/strong\u003e — Trevally, queenfish, fingermark and mangrove jack taking small baits around jetty lights but pulling above their size.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNorth America\u003c\/strong\u003e — Smallmouth bass on finesse rigs; speckled trout, redfish and jack crevalle inshore on small profiles.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eJapan \u0026amp; East Asia\u003c\/strong\u003e — Big aji on ajing and large mebaru on mebaring, plus kasago and small kingfish (shiokko) on micro jigs where a fine hook opens up.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAustralia, Middle East \u0026amp; Europe\u003c\/strong\u003e — Bream, tailor and estuary trevally on light plastics; perch and zander in Europe; small queenfish on Gulf flats.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSize\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eQty Per Pack\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSKU\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFinish\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e#14\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e18\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e499131014\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlack Nickel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e#16\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e18\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e499131016\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlack Nickel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e#18\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e18\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e499131018\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlack Nickel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e#20\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e18\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e499131020\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlack Nickel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e#22\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e18\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e499131022\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlack Nickel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChoosing within the KR series\u003c\/strong\u003e — by bait, fish size and line class.
