Bite Science Ghost Point Red Long Shank Hooks

The Bite Science Ghost Point Red Long Shank is one of the most widely used hook patterns in Australia, trusted by generations of anglers for its simplicity, versatility and effectiveness.

Available in sizes from #10 through to 2/0, this hook is a staple for inshore and estuary fishing, particularly when targeting species with small mouths or sharp teeth. The long shank makes baiting easy and helps keep fish away from the trace, while also simplifying hook removal.
