VARIVAS Death Lock Stitch is a finesse barbless hook designed for Neko rigs, deadsticking soft baits, and presenting I-Shape minnows with the ultimate finesse. Featuring a unique barbless design, the Death Lock Stitch hook offers increased penetration when using light lines and minimizes stress to the fish. A stiff fluorocarbon keeper is used to secure your bait in place, preventing the bait from slipping during casting or from short strikes. Death Lock Stitch also features Varivas’ proprietary Zero FriXion Coating for an ultra-smooth hook surface. This innovative hook coating technology significantly reduces friction, allowing for even easier hook penetration. A secret weapon among Japanese smallmouth anglers, Death Lock Stitch has a carefully engineered bend design that allows for excellent hooking performance combined with exceptional stealth, allowing it to catch on even the most cautious bites.
