Museum Archive: Gamakatsu 510 232512 #2/0​, Silver fishing #17301

Sized at 2/0, these heavy-duty silver single hooks showcase the precision engineering Gamakatsu is known for. This specific pack, product code 17301, houses five model 510 hooks (reference 232512) that are in unused condition. The sharp, high-carbon steel construction is a direct result of the manufacturer’s Japanese heritage, with final assembly occurring in Thailand. Anglers often choose the 510 series for its heavy wire gauge and generous gap, which is designed for rigging lures where a strong single point is preferred over standard trebles. The silver finish provides a clean, reflective surface. Each hook features a perfectly closed eye to prevent leader chafing during heavy loads.
