The Ruthless series single-hook designed for saltwater lure fishing prioritizes unmatched hook-up ratios and secure fighting capabilities that stand strong against tuna or catfish battles.

To achieve this, the gap and bend have been maximized, and Mustad's latest hook technology has perfected the essence.

The latest point of the Opti-Angle™ family, the AlphaPoint® 4.8 technology, has been sharpened to an incredibly fine point and refined to be our thinnest point yet.

Thanks to the durability of the Opti-Angle™ sharpening process, AlphaPoint® hooks are 10 times more durable than competing needle points. Mustad has applied the Titan Steel coating to provide increased, over 500-hour saltwater corrosion resistance, ranking second only to stainless steel.
