Decoy Plug Hook

Katsuichi (DECOY) plug hooks are a series of replaceable treble hooks designed to match the type and size of each lure, with an emphasis on fast hooksets and consistent hook performance. The Treble Y-F33F features a straight Long Spear Point that helps achieve a hookset with minimal force, while the combination of 1X fine wire, micro barb, and a long point with a round bend is designed to maximize penetration and holding power. The fluorocarbon-based Silky F coating supports smooth penetration. It also incorporates a Smart Eye, designed to prevent metal fatigue in the split ring and allow smooth installation; an In-Line Eye for a balance of secure lure fit and hook-setting performance; and the Solid System, which brings out the performance of each individual hook.

The Treble Y-F33F is available in a wide range of sizes, from small lures to giant baits, making it a versatile replacement hook for a broad selection of plugs. The Treble Y-F33B is a downsized version of the Y-F33 designed for small plugs, featuring a slightly outward-facing Long Spear Point, 1X fine wire, a micro barb, and a round bend. Its NS Black finish brings out the hardness and toughness of the wire, making it suitable for small plugs such as small shads and minnows, with a design intended to handle short strikes and tentative bites. When replacing a lure’s stock hooks, select the size while considering the lure’s body size, buoyancy, and the effect on its action.
