Extra Light Aberdeen Hooks give anglers a hook style they know and love built with extra light wire. The lighter wire allows minimal damage to bait like minnows when anglers put them on the hook and also makes it easier to bend out of snags—an excellent option for crappie and bluegill. American Made - engineered, tested, and manufactured in our production facility in Denver, Colorado. Forged points offer anglers durable sharpness they can rely on.
