Kamasan B940S Short Shank

Kamasan B940S Short Shank Hooks (10 Per Pack)

Compact, Stronger Aberdeen Pattern for Wary Fish and Compact Baits

The Kamasan B940S Short Shank Hook is a specialized and improved version of the classic Aberdeen pattern, retaining the familiar rounded bend and medium wire gauge but featuring a significantly shorter shank. This modification creates a more compact and robust hook, making it ideal for precision bait presentation and targeting wary fish.

The shorter shank design provides increased strength over the original B940, reducing the leverage a fish can use to straighten the hook, making the B940S a highly robust choice.

Key Features & Benefits:

• Short Shank Design: The defining feature, creating a compact hook that offers two main advantages:
  • Increased Strength: The shorter shank reduces leverage, providing greater strength and making it more robust than the standard B940.

  • Stealth & Bait Presentation: Less visible to wary fish and ideal for presenting small, compact baits such as crab sections, mussel, or a single worm more naturally.

• Classic Aberdeen Pattern: Retains the traditional rounded bend for a reliable hook-hold.

• Wire Gauge & Construction: Likely features the same or slightly heavier medium wire gauge carbon steel, possibly with a forging process to complement its robust design.
• Straight Eye: Features a traditional straight eye for reliable knotting.
• Durable Finish: Almost certainly features a durable, anti-corrosive bronze or black nickel coating for protection against the elements.
• Barbed/Barbless Options: Likely available in both barbed and barbless versions to suit different angling regulations and preferences.
• Available Sizes: Designed for a range of light-to-medium specimen work in sizes: 4, 2, 1, 1/0, and 2/0.
