The Eagle Claw Gold Jig Hook 100ct Size 2 is a solid choice for anglers rigging live-bait jigs and soft plastics in freshwater and light saltwater applications. This forged Aberdeen-style hook features a traditional 90-degree eye design that ties directly off the jig head, keeping your rig simple and reliable. The Size 2 falls in the mid-range of the Eagle Claw jig hook lineup, making it versatile enough for panfish through walleye and pike applications where you need a balanced hook that won't overpower lighter lures.
What sets this hook apart is its extra width between the point and shank—purposeful geometry designed to accommodate live minnows and other natural baits without fouling or slipping. The forged construction means you get consistent strength and sharpness across the entire 100-count pack, so you're not sorting through duds. The gold finish resists corrosion better than bare steel, especially helpful if you're spending a full day on the water or working in slightly brackish conditions.
Eagle Claw has been making jig hooks for generations because they work. This isn't trendy gear—it's the kind of terminal tackle that fills your box because it performs. Whether you're jigging deeper structure for walleye, working panfish in weeds, or bouncing livebait along current breaks, having a reliable bulk pack of quality hooks means less time worrying about your rig and more time focused on the bite.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between this jig hook and a regular hook?
Jig hooks like the Eagle Claw Gold are designed specifically for use with leadhead jigs. The 90-degree eye ties directly to your jig head, and the extra space between point and shank is built to keep live bait from sliding and fouling. They're also forged for strength, which matters when you're working heavy cover or larger baits.
Can I use these hooks for soft plastic baits, or just live bait?
While these hooks excel with live minnows and natural baits, the geometry also works well with soft plastics. The extra shank width gives you room to rig tubes and grubs cleanly without slipping.
What size fish can I target with Size 2 jig hooks?
Size 2 is a mid-range hook suitable for panfish, walleye, pike, and light saltwater applications. The right target depends on your bait size and the species you're after—a Size 2 works well with small to medium minnows and soft baits.
Why choose gold finish over bare steel?
The gold finish provides corrosion resistance, which extends hook life and makes them more reliable in freshwater and brackish conditions. It's a practical upgrade if you're fishing all day or in humid environments.
