Eagle Claw Gold Jig Hook 100ct Size 2/0

The Eagle Claw Gold Jig Hook 100ct Size 2/0 is a versatile Aberdeen-style jig hook built for anglers who work live bait and soft plastics on a tight budget. This pack of 100 gives you a reliable workhorse for everything from panfish and walleye to bass and pike. The forged construction holds up through repeated casts and the occasional snag, and the gold finish is visible in low light and tannic water while resisting corrosion better than bare steel.

What sets this hook apart is the extra gap between point and shank—that's real estate for minnow baits and live shiners to ride naturally without fouling the barb. The non-offset design keeps your bait tracking straight and true, and the 90-degree eye lets you tie it quick with a clinch knot or Palomar. Whether you're jigging panfish near structure, working shallow flats, or dropping a minnow through winter ice, the size 2/0 sits in the sweet spot: big enough for keeper-size fish, small enough for decent bait options and finesse presentations.

At 100 hooks per box, you've got the volume to experiment with depth, color, and bait combinations without worrying about running dry mid-season. Eagle Claw's been making dependable hooks since 1926, and their Gold Jig in the 575 series is a standard-issue choice for guides and weekend anglers alike. Stock a pack in your tacklebox or keep spares in the truck.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size fish can I target with a 2/0 jig hook?

The size 2/0 is well-suited to panfish, walleye, bass, and pike. The gap is large enough for solid hook sets on keeper-size fish while remaining practical for live minnow presentations and finesse jigs.

What's the difference between this non-offset hook and an offset jig hook?

Non-offset hooks like this one keep your bait riding straight on the jig shank, which improves bait action and reduces fouling. Offset hooks angle the eye slightly, useful in some applications but less ideal for live bait work.

Can I use these hooks with soft plastics, or are they really for live bait only?

While the extra gap is designed for live minnows, the 2/0 size works with many soft plastics and jig trailers. The forged strength and reliable hook eye make it flexible across bait and artificial presentations.

Why is the gold finish important?

Gold is more visible than bare steel in murky water, tea-colored lakes, and low light, helping you monitor your jig depth and movement. It also resists rust better than unfinished steel, extending hook life in saltwater and hard freshwater conditions.
