Boss Kat Super Boss-DBL Action 8/0 BK84Z

The Boss Kat Super Boss Double Action 8/0 BK84Z is a heavy-duty catfish circle hook designed to be fished either like a traditional circle (let the rod load and the fish hook itself) or with a positive sweep-set, hence the “double action” name.

Key features

• Hook style: Double action circle hook with an offset design that helps rotate into the corner of the fish’s mouth for secure hookups.
• Size: 8/0, built for big baits and targeting larger blue, channel, or flathead catfish.
• Wire and point: Extra-strong carbon steel wire with a very sharp needle point intended to penetrate quickly and handle heavy drag without bending.
• Finish: Boss Red coating (“Dead Red”) that adds corrosion resistance and is marketed to trigger feeding response in catfish.
• Eye and gap: Large eye that works well with heavy mono or braid and even trotlines, plus a wide gap to accommodate bulky live or cut baits.

Typical use

• Best with live or chunk baits on slip sinker, Santee, or bottom rigs where fish often load the rod before you engage the reel.
• Suited for anglers who want the option to either let the fish self-hook like a circle hook or drive the hook home with a firm, sweeping hookset.
