Mustad Ultra Point Demon Circle 10ct Size 5/0

The Mustad Ultra Point Demon Circle 10ct Size 5/0 is a tournament-grade circle hook built for serious anglers who need reliable hookups on bigger saltwater and freshwater species. This 10-pack of size 5/0 circle hooks features the signature wide-gap design that has made Demon hooks a favorite among competitive fishermen—the geometry is engineered to rotate and set itself in the corner of the mouth or lip when a fish takes the bait, which means fewer gut-hooked fish and better success rates on catch-and-release trips.

What sets the Ultra Point Demon apart is its construction: 1X extra heavy wire combined with a 2X extra short shank gives you the strength to handle hard-fighting offshore species without sacrificing the light, quick penetration you need on the strike. This combination of durability and sharpness makes the 5/0 size versatile enough for everything from live-bait drifting to bridle-rigged presentations. The circle hook's design also changes your technique—instead of an aggressive hook set, you simply tighten your line, making it ideal for anglers who want to work smarter, not harder, while still landing their target.

Mustad Demon Circle hooks are Tournament Approved by the Billfish Foundation, so you're using the same gear trusted in the most competitive saltwater fisheries. Available in your choice of finishes, the 5/0 size strikes the right balance for medium to larger baits and is at home on everything from inshore flats to deep offshore applications.

Frequently Asked Questions

What fish species can I target with the Mustad Ultra Point Demon Circle 5/0?

The 5/0 size is effective for a wide range of saltwater and freshwater species including Tuna, Marlin, Sailfish, Swordfish, Sharks, Wahoo, Halibut, Amberjack, Permit, Striped Bass, Catfish, and Panfish. Size your hook to match your bait for best results.

How is a circle hook different from a traditional hook?

Circle hooks are designed to hook fish in the corner of the mouth or lip rather than deep in the throat. This happens automatically when the fish takes the bait and swallows it—you don't need an aggressive hook set. Instead, simply tighten your line. This design dramatically reduces deep-hooking and makes circle hooks the preferred choice for catch-and-release fishing.

What does "Tournament Approved by the Billfish Foundation" mean?

It means these hooks meet the strict standards set by competitive saltwater fishing tournaments affiliated with the Billfish Foundation, ensuring they perform reliably at the highest levels of sport fishing.

Why does the heavy wire and short shank matter?

The 1X extra heavy wire gives you the strength needed to battle large, powerful fish without the hook bending or breaking, while the 2X extra short shank allows the Ultra Point to penetrate quickly and set securely in the fish's mouth, combining durability with sharp performance.
