What are color hooks and where are they used?
Color hooks are treble hooks with a bright epoxy or plastic drop in colours like red, yellow, green or glow.

Perch, roach and other species often strike exactly at the coloured drop.

Color hooks are popular on ice jigs, small spoons and balance lures.
You can also use them on light spinning lures when fish are picky.

How to choose color hooks?

How to choose color hooks?
Start with the lure size and the fish you want to catch.

Small color hooks fit tiny ice jigs and micro spoons.
Larger sizes work on heavier winter spoons and small predators.

Then think about colour: red and yellow are classic for perch and roach.
Glow or fluorescent drops help when the water is deep or light is low.

If you’re not sure which size or colour to choose, tell Jahikala how and where you fish.
We’ll suggest concrete hook sizes and colours instead of leaving you guessing.
