The hook is as old as fishing itself. There has been very little technological improvements outside of the metal technology.
This particular post we at Angler’s Gear are going to concentrate on is one of the newest of the hook technology – the Kahle hook.
The Kahle hook is not a circle hook nor a J-hook (j-hook being the standard hook with a long shank). Instead it is somewhat in between the two. The Kahle hook has a point that turns back towards the eye and an exceptionally large gap. The wire is thinner than the circle hook variety – leading to less damage to live bait.

VMC is well known for creating and manufacturing unique styles of hooks to meet the ever-expanding expectations and needs of anglers worldwide. VMC produces many hooks specific to conditions anglers encounter while out on a fishing trip. From fly hooks and barbless hooks to weighted swimbait hooks with integrated spinning blades, VMC does it all.

A barbless hook is a type of fishing hook that does not have a sharpened barb at the end. It allows for an easier release of the fish and protects the angler from injury.
