This Specialist XT Barbel is the perfect barbel hook with a medium length shank, wide gape and most importantly a curved needle point.

The straight eye means it sits better when tied with a knotless knot and thicker fluorocarbon hook links but is still highly effective with soft and coated braids. The new material and manufacturing techniques increase the strength making the points extremely durable and less likely to blunt when fishing over rocks and gravel. Available in sizes 6 to 14 in micro barbed and barbless with a slick PTFE coating to reduce glare when fishing in bright and clear water conditions.
