Mustad Wide Gap Hook Nickle 8ct Size 2/0$1.83
Availability: In Stock
The Mustad Wide Gap Hook in nickel finish is a dependable choice for anglers targeting catfish, stripers, pike, and other hard-fighting species that demand a hook with real holding power. This 8-count pack of size 5/0 hooks features Mustad's proven design: a slightly reversed hook point that grips bait and fish firmly once the set is made, plus a hollow point geometry engineered for fast penetration. Whether you're rigging live crawdads, shrimp, shiners, or other natural baits, the wide gap opens enough space to accommodate larger offerings without fouling your knot.
The nickel finish delivers a clean, bright appearance that doesn't spook fish in clear water, and it holds up well to freshwater and moderate saltwater conditions. Mustad backs these hooks with their MTL-V1 point technology—a sharper, more efficient design combined with an advanced sharpening process that cuts penetration resistance by roughly 50% compared to standard Classic hooks. That means fewer missed fish and cleaner hooksets, even on hard mouths.
Built with Mustad's Wire Technology and Nor-Tempering Process, these hooks are engineered to be lighter and significantly stronger than conventional designs—up to 30% stronger, in fact. For the price and availability of a bulk pack, you're getting reliable, field-tested hooks backed by more than a century of hook-making expertise. Stock a few packs for your tackle box and don't overthink it.
| Brand | Mustad Hooks |
| Hook Type | Wide Gap |
| Size | 5/0 |
| Finish | Nickel |
| Count Per Pack | 8 |
| Point Design | MTL-V1 Hollow Point |
A size 5/0 is suited for medium to larger live baits—crawdads, shiners, small shrimp, and San Juan worms are all good matches. The wide gap gives you room to thread live bait without crushing it or blocking the hook point.
Nickel finish offers good corrosion resistance in freshwater and can handle light saltwater use. For extended saltwater applications, consider Mustad's black nickel or other saltwater-specific finishes.
This pack contains 8 hooks, so you'll have backups and options for rigging multiple lines or patterns without running out.
The MTL-V1 combines a sharper, more efficient point design with Mustad's advanced sharpening process. The result is roughly 50% lower penetration resistance compared to standard Classic hooks, meaning faster, cleaner hooksets.
