Eagle Claw O'Shaughnessy Large Eye SS 100 ct Size 6/0

The Eagle Claw O'Shaughnessy Large Eye SS 100 ct Size 6/0 is a workhorse hook for serious trot line and catfish anglers. These stainless steel hooks come in a bulk 100-count package, giving you reliable, rust-resistant hooks ready for long soak sessions. The O'Shaughnessy pattern features a forged design and offset point that hold fish securely once hooked, and the large eye makes it easy to tie on heavy mono or braided line—crucial when you're rigging multiple lines overnight or in saltwater conditions where corrosion would trash standard carbon steel.

Size 6/0 sits in the sweet spot for catfish, large panfish, and other species that demand substantial hooks. Whether you're running a traditional trot line across a river, setting up a noodling rig, or working from a gaff in pursuit of trophy catfish, these hooks are engineered to hold up through heavy use and frequent re-baiting. The stainless construction means they'll resist rust and maintain integrity session after session—no replacing corroded hooks mid-trip.

Stock a bulk pack and you're set for the season. Trot lining demands efficiency, and having a reliable 100-pack of proven hooks eliminates the guesswork. At 6/0, these are substantial enough for hefty baits and powerful fish, yet the large eye design keeps rigging simple even in low light or cold-weather conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size hook is best for catfish on a trot line?

Size 6/0 is a solid choice for catfish and large bottom feeders. It's substantial enough to handle big live baits and powerful runs without bending, yet manageable for hand-tying on the water.

Why stainless steel hooks instead of regular carbon steel?

Stainless steel resists rust and corrosion far better than carbon steel, which matters when you're soaking lines overnight or fishing in saltwater. You'll replace these hooks far less often and they'll hold their strength longer.

Can I use these hooks for saltwater fishing?

Stainless steel is much more corrosion-resistant than standard hooks, making it suitable for saltwater applications, though you'll still want to rinse and dry them after use.

What does the large eye mean?

The large eye opening makes it easier to tie on line, especially important when you're using heavier mono or braided cord for trot lining or rigging in challenging conditions.
