Freshwater Fishing Hooks, Jigs and Rigs

The weakest link argument definitely applies to fish hooks. You can do everything right, spend all the time and money in the world, be in the right place at the right time with exactly the right equipment and bait. But if you don't use good, sharp, and strong hooks, all your effort will be in vain. The right fishing hook helps land your quarry and reduces damage to the mouth area.

Take the right hooks fishing to your favorite lakes and rivers by shopping at TackleDirect. We offer a big selection of quality hooks from famous manufacturers to ensure you hook and land your dream catch. We also have simple but effective freshwater jigs with hooks that you can dress yourself with your favorite soft baits that will help you catch more fish.

Freshwater Single and Treble Hooks

TackleDirect has hundreds of hooks to help you catch practically any fish swimming in freshwater. Choose from a variety of standard J hooks including O'Shaughnessy, offset, and non-offset single hooks from leading manufacturers such as Eagle Claw, Mustad, Hayabusa, and VMC. If you practice catch-and-release fishing, we have lots of circle hooks that will help you release fish with minimal harm.

Other freshwater fishing hooks in stock include octopus hooks, wide gap hooks, worm hooks, and bait holders. We also carry treble hooks ideal for replacing or upgrading hooks on your lures. You can also use trebles for holding soft baits. Finesse hooks such as drop shot and mosquito hooks work like surgical instruments, offering the precision you need when fish aren't behaving as aggressively.

Freshwater Jig Heads

There's a reason why jigs and jig heads have been included in standard military survival kits for decades: They catch fish. Simple, small, and deadly, these basic lures will catch virtually any fish on the planet in saltwater or freshwater.

At TackleDirect, we carry a big selection of freshwater jig heads to help you go after virtually any freshwater fish, from 1/16-ounce crappie killers to 1-ounce jig heads for enticing walleye and lake trout. These jigs are available in a variety of head shapes. We ship them bare so you can dress them with your favorite soft baits or other baits. Many are designed for different lures and fishing techniques, including swimbait jigs, flat shad jigs, finesse-type jigs and weedless jigs.
