Pallatrax GripZ Monster CatZ Hook

After a long and thorough research into the limitations of bearded and beardless hooks, it became clear that improvements were needed. The result was this radical design, which crosses the boundaries between traditional hooks and new technology.

Made from premium Japanese steel, the key innovation is the tiny horizontal indentations on the inside of the hook point, located where the beard used to be. These grooves allow the hook to hold steady in the fish's mouth under load as the fabric is pressed into the grooves, ensuring a strong hold without unhinging. As soon as the load is removed, the hook returns to its beardless form, making it easy and safe to remove. A simple yet highly effective solution.

No one can deny that this is a serious and genuine development in hooks that could revolutionise angling and offer benefits to anglers, fish and water alike. The unique benefits of GRIPZ hooks are readily apparent, particularly in reducing hook slippage, minimising fish loss associated with beardless hooks, and eliminating the damage caused by hook removal and the problem of dragging rigs associated with beardless hooks.
