GAMAKATSU A1 Ippatsu Chinu #1

This is a krill-colored black porgy hook made with the new material “A1” for hooks.

The thin shaft is twisted and semi-threaded.
It bites well and is hooked in an instant.
It is strong enough to withstand the strong swing of the black porgy’s kabura, and it will bite and keep it.

• The special new material “A1” and “Tournament Grade Wire (TGW)” for A1 fishing hooks boasts outstanding pocket strength and abrasion resistance. The basic performance of the “A1” series and “Tournament Grade Wire” series is as close as possible to “G-HARD (SHS steel)”. It has excellent workability, and can be easily processed with barbs and flat cutting, and can also be used as a semi-threaded type. It is also a material that can be developed in a variety of colors.
• Twisted (reverse twist) (reverse bend)
  A hook with a twisted shaft and a hook tip facing outward. Depending on the application, there are twists (right twists) and reverse twists (left twists).
• A V-shaped groove is machined into the buoy/head striker section to fix the line at the center of the axis. It does not crush the line and prevents the knot from rotating. In addition, a “line lock system” is added to prevent the line from slipping at the knot of the hook, ensuring safe and reliable knot strength.
