Mustad Treble Hook Bronze 25ct Size 12
The Mustad Treble Hook Bronze in Size 12 is a compact, multipurpose hook built for freshwater anglers who need reliable hold on artificial lures and live bait alike. This 25-count pack gives you a go-to replacement option for plugs, spoons, spinners, and other lures, or a solid choice for live-bait rigs where you want secure hooksets on smaller fish. Mustad's engineering—lighter construction and up to 30% greater strength compared to standard hooks—means these little trebles won't let you down when a fish commits.
The bronze finish resists corrosion in freshwater environments while keeping costs reasonable, making this an economical choice for anglers who tie their own rigs or rotate through replacements. The MTL-V1 point design combines a more efficient point geometry with modern sharpening that delivers 50% lower penetration resistance than older Mustad classics—translation: faster, cleaner hookups with less force required. Whether you're fishing panfish, smallmouth, or anything that matches the smaller profile, a large quantity of sharp, durable trebles in your tackle box means fewer missed opportunities.
Size 12 is ideal for small- to medium-sized artificials and works well on light spinning or fly-and-bubble setups. The bronze coating suits freshwater duty and gives a natural appearance that doesn't spook wary fish. At 25 hooks per pack, you can afford to experiment, replace worn points, or build multiple rigs without breaking the bank.
