Eagle Claw Gold Jig Hook 100ct Size 3/0
The Eagle Claw Gold Jig Hook 100ct Size 3/0 is a workhorse choice for anglers building live-bait jigs and jigging presentations. This forged Aberdeen-style hook comes from Eagle Claw's 575 Series and is sized at 3/0—a versatile middle ground for freshwater bass, walleye, and pike jigging. The gold finish offers corrosion resistance and visibility in the water, and the non-offset design gives you a straight, predictable hook set. What sets it apart for jig work is the extra gap between the point and shank, which gives live minnows and other baitfish more room to move naturally on the jig head without fouling the barb.
A 100-count box means you've got plenty to tie, rig, and replace as hooks wear or break—no need to reorder constantly. The 90-degree eye is standard jig-hook geometry, designed to sit perpendicular to the shank for clean, efficient connection to your leadhead. Whether you're a serious jigging enthusiast or someone who ties a few dozen rigs each season, this hook delivers consistent, reliable performance without unnecessary complexity or premium pricing.
If you're working shallow flats with panfish, offshore drop-offs for walleye, or anywhere live-bait jigging makes sense, the Gold Jig Hook 3/0 earns its place in your tackle box. It's the kind of foundational tool that doesn't demand attention—it just works, year after year.

Frequently Asked Questions
What size jigs are these hooks best for?
The 3/0 size is ideal for medium-sized jig heads and live-bait rigs targeting bass, walleye, pike, and other freshwater species. It's large enough to handle substantial minnows and baitfish while remaining practical for typical jigging weights and presentations.
Can I use these hooks with artificial soft plastics as well as live bait?
These hooks are designed primarily for jigging with live bait and minnows, thanks to the extra gap between point and shank. For soft-plastic jig applications, you may find hooks specifically optimized for that purpose work better.
What does the 90-degree eye mean for rigging?
The 90-degree eye sits perpendicular to the shank, which is standard jig-hook geometry. This design allows the eye to connect directly to your leadhead with a clean, efficient knot—no need for special rigging tricks.
Are these hooks offset or straight?
These are non-offset hooks, meaning the point is aligned straight with the shank. This gives you a predictable, direct hook set without the bias of an offset design.
