The Korda Kamakura Wide Gape is the ultimate ready-to-use hook, achieving a level of sharpness equivalent to a meticulously hand-sharpened point, but without requiring the angler’s time and effort. This version of the classic Wide Gape pattern features a significantly sharper, finer point created by the bespoke Kamakura process, ensuring immediate and deep penetration upon contact.
Due to the delicate nature of this ultra-sharp point, it is advised that anglers change the hook after every fish caught to maintain peak performance. The hook’s design features a slightly in-turned eye, a short shank, a heavily forged bend, and a secure beaked point. This geometry makes it highly effective with a wide variety of pop-up and bottom bait presentations and ensures that once it sets, it remains securely in place.
To protect their surgical edge, the points are guarded by a blob of wax which must be carefully removed before use. The hooks are supplied in a dedicated, secure box that holds ten individual hooks firmly in place.
