The Mustad 39960D circle hook owns a reputation as the most dependable circle hook for catching monster fish worldwide. Kite fishing with Mustad 39960D 20/0 Cinrcle Hooks is one of the hottest methods in the world for catching Big Yellowfin Tunas, called ?Cows? by the Southern California Long Range Fleet. Captain Roy Rose of the Royal Polaris has said that the size, shape and strength of the Mustad 39960D makes it nearly impossible for these big fish to escape as they are almost always hooked perfectly in the corner of the jaw, and the hooks never straighten or pull out. Due to the extensive size reange offered, the Mustad 39960D circle hook has many uses including halibut, shark, tarpon, giant trevally, marlin and tuna. One of the big advantages of circle hooks is that they are preferred by anglers looking to release their catch as circle hooks are much more fish friendly than traditional J-Hooks. Melton Tackle promotes the use of circle hooks and always promotes catch and release. Make Mustad 39960D circle hooks part of your tackle arsenal and watch your hook up ratio go up and the number of pulled hooks and lost fish go down.
