Eagle Claw Weighted Treble Hook 5/0

The Eagle Claw Weighted Treble Hook 5/0 is a hard-working trailer hook built for anglers who need reliable hooksets on live bait presentations and crankbait applications. Weighted treble hooks are standard equipment in bass fishing, pike and musky pursuits, and saltwater work—the integrated weight helps your lure track true, sit at the right depth, and respond to your rod work without excess drag or tangles. The 5/0 size sits in the middle of the performance range: large enough to handle serious fish and multiple baits, but not so oversized that it bogs down smaller presentations or spooks cautious water.

Eagle Claw has built a reputation on no-nonsense hook design, and this treble delivers the finish and point geometry you expect from the brand. Whether you're rigging a replacement on a damaged crankbait, building a custom trailer-hook setup for topwater, or reinforcing the stock hardware on a deep-diving plug, a quality weighted treble in the right size makes the difference between a solid hookup and a lost fish. The 5/0 is versatile enough for most freshwater gamefish and many inshore applications.

Available separately in other sizes (3/0, 4/0, and 8/0) if you need to match your specific lure action or target species.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between a weighted and standard treble hook?

A weighted treble hook has an integrated sinker or lead weight that helps your lure maintain the correct running depth and angle without adding bulk or causing fouling. On crankbaits and topwater lures, this keeps the bait tracking true. On live bait rigs, the weight stabilizes the presentation and improves hookset response.

Will a 5/0 treble work on my crankbait?

The 5/0 size is standard for most medium-action crankbaits and live bait presentations. Exact fit depends on your lure's design and the bait size you're using. If you're replacing a damaged hook, measure the original or consult your lure's spec sheet.

Can I use this for saltwater fishing?

The Eagle Claw Weighted Treble Hook 5/0 can be used in inshore saltwater applications, though for heavy-duty salt work or larger saltwater gamefish, you may want to size up to an 8/0 or confirm the hook's corrosion resistance matches your water type and season.

Are these sold individually or in packs?
