Ryugi Regular Guard Talisman

Ryugi Regular Guard Talisman

A masu-style hook fitted with a protective guard for fishing around light cover using power spinning or baitcasting tackle. Intended for lines of 4 lb or heavier, it stems from the well-regarded Talisman wacky hook with subtle geometry changes to accommodate the guard.

• Guard material: Multi-fiber composition chosen to avoid excessive stiffness.
• Snagless action: The guard deflects cover yet collapses flexibly in any direction on a strike, so it won’t impede the hookset.
• Improved retention: Designed to reduce the common tendency of fish to pull free seen with many guard-equipped masu hooks.
• Adjustable: The guard is simple to reshape after landing fish, and can be trimmed to remove fibers and lessen the guarding effect.
• Tactical use: When encountering numerous short bites, weakening the guard can increase hooking success.
