The Gamakatsu EWG Weighted Black Size 2/0 1/16oz hook is purpose-built for anglers targeting bass and other freshwater predators with paddle tail swim baits. This five-pack gives you a reliable, technique-specific option that combines a proven hook design with integrated weight to dial in your presentation at any depth. The EWG (Extra Wide Gap) bend provides solid hooksets on aggressive strikes, while the weighted profile eliminates the need for additional split shot or jig heads when you want a compact, natural-looking bait rig.
Gamakatsu engineered this hook with a 28-degree eye angle that locks your paddle tail bait in place, keeping it aligned and tracking true throughout the retrieve. The weight is milled and positioned strategically to avoid balance issues—your swim bait will work right at whatever depth you're fishing, whether that's in shallow grass, mid-depth structure, or deeper open water. The black finish blends in once it's in the water and won't spook wary fish.
At size 2/0 with 1/16 ounce of weight, this hook hits the sweet spot for small to medium paddle tails and light-cover presentations. You get five hooks per pack, so you'll have backups for line breaks, bent hooks, or simply testing different colors and sizes alongside these in your tackle box. Built on Gamakatsu's reputation for quality forging and sharp, consistent points, these hooks are made to land fish reliably, trip after trip.
| Hook Size | 2/0 |
| Weight | 1/16 oz |
| Quantity | 5 |
| Finish | Black |
| Gap Style | EWG (Extra Wide Gap) |
| Eye Angle | 28 degrees |
The 2/0 size is ideal for small to medium paddle tails. While exact bait dimensions aren't specified in the product specs, size 2/0 hooks are commonly paired with 3- to 5-inch swim baits. Match the hook to baits that balance on the eye without overwhelming the point or dragging the bait off-center.
The 1/16oz integrated weight on this hook means you can fish it weighted right out of the pack. Depending on water depth, cover, and desired fall rate, you may still choose to add more weight or keep it as-is for a subtler presentation. Test both approaches to see what works for your target depth and conditions.
The weighted design and strategic weight placement allow these hooks to track true at any depth, making them versatile across shallow grass, mid-depth structure, and deeper open-water presentations. The 28-degree eye keeps your paddle tail locked and aligned no matter where you're fishing.
The extra-wide gap in an EWG design gives you a larger hook point relative to the hook's shank, improving your odds of a solid hookset on explosive strikes from largemouth and smallmouth bass. The wider gap also makes it easier to rig and remove paddle tails without damaging them if you want to reuse baits.
