Mustad Jig Hook Red Needle Point 100ct Size 3/0
The Mustad Jig Hook Red Needle Point 100ct Size 3/0 is a workhorse for anglers who tie their own jigs or stock production materials. This 100-count pack delivers the fine-wire, durable construction Mustad is known for—ideal whether you're molding heads for freshwater bass and panfish or rigging saltwater applications where light-wire hooks reduce overall jig weight and improve hook-to-body ratio.
The red finish provides visibility during tying and storage, and the needle-point barb ensures solid penetration and hook-holding power when a fish commits. The 90-degree eye design is a classic jig-hook configuration that works across a wide range of head shapes and presentations, from compact finesse rigs to full-sized football and round-head designs. Size 3/0 sits in the middle of the jig-hook spectrum—versatile enough for 1/16-ounce heads targeting bluegill or crappie, yet substantial enough to pair with heavier heads for deeper water or stronger current.
Whether you're stocking your vise before spawn season or building a year-round supply, 100 hooks per pack means fewer reorders and more time on the water. Mustad's reputation for consistent quality and sharp points makes this a reliable choice when your presentation and hookup rate depend on solid terminal tackle.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use these hooks for both fresh and saltwater jigs?
Yes. The Mustad 3/0 jig hook is suitable for freshwater applications like bass and panfish as well as saltwater rigging. The fine-wire Aberdeen construction works across both environments.
What size jig heads can I pair with a 3/0 hook?
Size 3/0 is versatile and works with a range of head weights and shapes—from small finesse heads for panfish to larger football and round-head designs for deeper presentations. Your specific choice depends on your target species and depth.
Are these hooks already sharpened?
These hooks feature a needle point; they arrive sharp and ready to use out of the pack.
What does the 90-degree eye mean?
The 90-degree eye—also called a jig eye or ring eye—is bent perpendicular to the hook shank, which is the standard configuration for attaching jig heads and is optimized for vertical presentations and bottom contact.
