Korda Wide Gape XX Hooks Micro Barbed
This is a really classic pattern of hook and the Wide Gape has accounted for a huge number of big carp captures over the many years since it was first launched.
It is based on an old classic spade end hook pattern from the 1980s and 1990s which found favour with many anglers at the time – the Maruta Kinryu – but we have improved it and made it more user-friendly by switching the spade for an eye.
The Wide Gape features a slightly in-turned eye, with a short shank, heavily forged bend, and very sharp, beaked point.
It can be used with a wide variety of different pop-up and bottom bait presentations, and once it goes in it tends to stay in.
For those fishing in snaggy conditions in the UK or for overseas fishing there is also a Wide Gape X version.
Or really extreme circumstances overseas – including when targeting huge Siamese carp or Mekong catfish in Thailand – there is an even heavier duty Wide Gape XX version.Key features

Fox Edges Arma Point Wide Gape Beaked Micro Barbed Hooks
It had to happen didn’t it? Our Edges range of terminal tackle has taken the carping world by storm over the past three years with anglers across the globe appreciating that we had taken rig component design to a whole new level.
There was of course one item of terminal tackle that our product development team hadn’t given the Edges treatment too, and that quite simply is because it has taken them many years to design, develop and test this range.
We haven’t simply picked up a hook manufacturers catalogue and picked a few patterns off the shelf, oh no, we have drawn up the patterns from scratch using the latest CAD software packages to ensure that every single detail in every single pattern is exactly how they need to be for the modern carp angler.
The end result is an Edges Arma Point hook range that features eight patterns, and that are in our opinion and that of our angling consultants, the strongest and sharpest out of the packet hooks you will find on the market.

Thinking Anglers Out Turned Eye Hooks
The wickedly sharp and extremely strong Out-Turned Eye hooks are primarily intended for use with stiff monofilaments and fluorocarbon materials popular for pop-up sections on Hinged and Chod style rigs.
Additionally, they have a multitude of uses for bottom bait and D-rig presentations.The 15° angled OE is perfect for these tricky materials as it allows the hook to sit at a naturally aggressive and efficient angle, that doesn’t impact the hook’s gape.
The eye diameter and angle also help to maintain the perfect alignment between the hooklink material and the hook point – that means that the hook is easier to fine-tune with rigs tied with these hooklink materials.
The combination of our slippery PTFE coating, OE, lovely long tapered durable point, and the right length hook shank all comes together to ensure that the initial pricking and penetration of this hook pattern is impeccable, bedding down quickly and securely – and staying there…
These hooks are forged from a super-strong, extra-heavy gauge wire, and were thoroughly tried and tested by us for 2 years under extremely rigorous conditions prior to their public release.
Key features/specifications:
PTFE Coating for optimum penetration
Super strong double tempered extra heavy gauge high carbon steel
Super sharp, long straight points
15° out-turned eye
Korda Longshank Beaked Hooks
The original Korda Longshank X was based on the popular, original fly hook patterns, which found favour with carp anglers due to their shape and hooking ability – we made them much stronger and sharper.
Fast forward 20 years and DF has been tweaking this ultimate carp catcher once again.
Heavily influenced by his underwater experiences, Dan decided to make two major changes to one of his favourite patterns, making it an even deadlier option within his armoury.
The first change was to create the hook with a beaked point.
During testing, the beaked point provided more secure hook holds, increasing the hooked fish to landed ratio significantly.
The other change was to in-turn the eye even further.
The original pattern has a 20 degree in-turned eye, the new beaked version increases this to 40 degrees.
This helps the hook flip and turn extremely quickly in the carp’s mouth, ensuring consistently good hook-holds.
In keeping with the original pattern, the Longshank Beaked is forged, with a stepped-up wire gauge for extra strength, whilst maintaining its durability with a PTFE coating.
