Whether you are targeting snapper, morwong, groper, mangrove jacks, red emperor or any other powerful-jawed fish when soaking bait, the 8/0 Mustad Big Red Suicide hook is the one you are after. With its thick shaft and super-sharp point, the hook won’t have any trouble penetrating a fish’s mouth. These hooks have been a huge part of the snapper scene for many years and with good reason: they account for so many big fish each season.

So whether you are using whole dead or live baits, or large strip baits, the 8/0 is the ideal size. Either use them as a single hook, or link them up by snooding line onto the shaft for longer baits. A must have for reef anglers.
