ULTRASHARP – unique 3-stage Opti-Angle™ sharpening technology ULTRASTRONG – unique Nor-tempering process makes hooks up to 30% stronger
19
Conventional chemically sharpened needlepoint hooks are extremely sharp and offer quick penetration with a small entry hole. Yet, to achieve such sharpness, metal is ground away until the point is very sharp... but, sometimes also very weak. Many believe “bent” or “roll over” hook point results from this sharpening process. To address this problem, Mustad, the world’s leader in hook technology created the revolutionary premium hook design - ULTRAPOINT™.
What is Mustad ULTRAPOINT™? Making the sharpest point can mean leaving it dangerously weak, as the grinding and chemical sharpening process removes metal from the point of the hook. This can lead to the point rolling over when it comes into contact with gravel, or even losing sharpness when immersed for long periods. The UltraPoint three-stage grinding technology produces an incredibly sharp needle point, but because more of the metal remains, the point won’t roll or lose sharpness. Result: The sharpest and strongest hook in the world.
ULTRA SHARP ULTRAPOINT™ is created using state-of-the-art, three stage Opti-Angle™ sharpening technology which removes less metal from the point than traditional methods – without compromising sharpness.
ULTRA STRONG The hook is then put through innovative three stage computer-controlled tempering process - Nor Temper™. This advance heat treatment transforms the hook into a fine grained, ultra strong micro-structure, increasing the strength up to 30% compared to conventional tempering methods. The result is an ultra sharp, ultra strong needlepoint that delivers quick, easy penetration... and longer performance.

SLOW DEATH HOOK – THE PRO’S SECRET A Perspective on Perfection
O
slow
In the mid-90’s a close group of walleye pros were generating tremendous results with a new technique called Slow Death. Incredible action was being added to live-bait presentations by bending hooks in a certain fashion. I knew it was something special, but because I couldn’t master the precise hook bend, I was getting really inconsistent results. Working with the Mustad Product Development Team, Keith ™ and I spent countless hours testing hook bends until we perfected a hook design that anybody could rig effectively.

TIPS FOR FISHING THE SLOW DEATH HOOK Applications This is a versatile, year-round Power Finesse presentation. It can be fished fast or slow, has the attractiveness of live bait and adds an irresistible action. The unique hook design creates an enticing corkscrew presentation. This is a slow bottom-bouncing presentation technique that lets you present the bait in cracks, crevices and little corners that faster blade presentations skip over. Rigged with night crawler showing underwater action
To Rig Attach a bottom-bouncer weight to your main line. Add a 4-6 foot, 10 lb monofilament leader and attach hook. Thread half a night crawler up the hook shank over the hook eye. There should be 1/4” to 1/2” of night crawler hanging off the hook.
To fish Use your trolling motor and keep speeds from 1 mph to almost nothing. The key is to keep just enough speed so the crawler spins. Can also be used effectively when drifting. KEITH KAVAJECZ Professional Walleye Trail Champion “The revolutionary hook shape for a truly effective presentation.”
