Description
The CT-88 TAKUMI PREMIUM (匠プレミアム, CT-88) is a treble hook built with high-hardness EX heavy wire, dedicated to large fish — aoumono (yellowtail-family), tuna, and GT. VANFOOK's copy describes a curved-point design for smooth hook-sets and a deep-gape design for superior holding performance. The eye's base is tapered thin so it mounts smoothly even onto high-strength split rings that are otherwise hard to open, and the barb is set small for easy crushing. Finished with a rust-resistant silver plating.
Sizes: #2/0, #3/0, #4/0, #5/0, #6/0. Colour: Silver. Category: Casting.

FAQ
How does PE rating convert to pounds?
Only approximately. A common rule of thumb is PE size × 10 ≈ breaking strain in pounds, but it varies by brand and braid construction — check the maker's own lb or kg rating on the listing.
Are hook and jig head sizes the same across brands?
No — sizes aren't standardised between Japanese makers. Size to the lure you're rigging and check the brand's own size chart; the measurements on the listing are the honest reference.
The colour looks slightly different from my last spool — is that normal?
Yes. Dye batches on braid and finishes on painted heads vary between production runs. It's cosmetic and doesn't change the spec.
How does small tackle ship?
Packed in Japan and sent with tracked international shipping, same as everything else. Small items still get a tracking number; delivery time varies by destination.
Why buy JDM line specifically?
Japanese line makers in the JAFTMA industry group publish tight diameter and strength tolerances, and member brands are measured against them. Check each listing's spec — that's a per-brand claim, not a blanket promise.
