Eagle Claw Pro Worm Wide Gap Red 5ct Size 1/0

The Eagle Claw Pro Worm Wide Gap Red in size 1/0 is a workhorse hook for anglers targeting bass, panfish, and catfish with live and soft plastic baits. This five-pack gives you reliable, ready-to-fish hooks that cut straight to the point—no nonsense, no premium price tag. The wide gap design keeps your bait secure and improves hookset performance, whether you're flipping into heavy cover, fishing a creek channel, or working the shallows from a kayak.

Eagle Claw has been the go-to for working anglers since the 1920s, and their Pro Worm line holds that reputation. The 1/0 size sits at the sweet spot for smaller to medium baits and lighter cover presentations. A five-count pack means you've got backups when you snag or lose a hook—and you will—so you stay on the water instead of tying on fresh gear every time.

Whether you're a bass tournament angler, a creek catfish hunter, or someone who just wants dependable hooks that don't break the bank, this pack earns its place in your tackle box. The red finish is a classic choice for visibility and tradition in the box, though what really matters is the hook shape and the gap—and Eagle Claw nailed both here.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size bait works best with a 1/0 wide gap hook?

The 1/0 size is ideal for small to medium live baits like shiners, minnows, and crawfish, as well as soft plastic worms in the 4- to 6-inch range. It's also a solid choice for panfish targeting and lighter cover work where you don't need oversized hooks.

Can I use these hooks for saltwater fishing?

These are freshwater hooks. While they may work in light brackish conditions, Eagle Claw makes dedicated saltwater lines with corrosion-resistant finishes for extended saltwater use.

What's included in this pack?

You get five individual hooks in a single pack. No rod, no line, no terminal tackle—just the hooks themselves.

Are wide gap hooks better for hookset?

Wide gap hooks expose more of the shank and barb, which generally improves your odds of a solid hookset, especially with live bait. They're also easier to thread and less likely to slip.
