Description
Pile Driver "Deka Eye" is ZAPPU's Pile Driver hook fitted with an eyelet roughly twice the normal diameter (2.7mm vs. 1.4mm on a standard #3/0), making it easier to tie your line and to rig a sinker via split ring or snap.
The bigger eye also makes it simple to add a skirt or other tuning, and ZAPPU recommends pairing it with their Eye Shot sinker.
Available in #1 through #5/0. Known in Japan as the ザップ パイルドライバー"デカアイ" (Pile Driver Deka Eye).

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.
