Fine wire and a Long Spear Point already give the shape an easy entry; Katsuichi’s Silky F Coat cuts sliding friction further, so the point keeps travelling once the tip is in rather than stalling in tough jaw tissue. That matters because the hook is deliberately thin: 1× fine wire with a micro barb, set to bury with the small force a soft crankbait rod transmits. The size range is the other half of the argument: Katsuichi run it from #8 to #4\/0 including odd sizes such as #7, #5 and #3, so a 45 mm shad and a magnum big bait share one hooking behaviour. Solid System welding, Smart Eye, inline vertical eye, Silky Black finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSilky F Coat fluorine treatment for lower friction and deeper penetration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLong Spear Point angled for early contact\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1× fine wire with a micro barb; sets with very little force\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWide size range including odd sizes for precise matching\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid System welding and a Smart Eye that reduces split-ring fatigue\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInline (vertical) eye suits every lure type\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStocked in #1 and #8; Katsuichi produce #8 through #4\/0\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow To Rig It\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUpgrading crankbaits and jerkbaits\u003c\/strong\u003e — Fit #8 to small cranks, shads and 50–70 mm minnows.
