Looking Sharp
Conservation-minded anglers who rely on thin-wire barbless hooks to increase chances of a salmon's post-release survival can add Mustad Ultra Point Barbless Beak 92639N hooks to their arsenal. Opti-Angle sharpening technology removes less metal from the point than traditional methods, resulting in a super-sharp, durable needle point that penetrates quickly and holds fish
yet can be easily removed when the fight ends. Hooks are sold in boxes of 25 or 100 and sizes range from 1/0 to 6/0. A box of 25 in size 2/0 costs about $6.99. For more information, contact O. Mustad & Son (USA) at 315-253-2793, visit www.mustad.no .
