Van Vleck Hook
For tarpon, tuna and other very large and powerful fish the Van Vleck hook is the kind most used. These hooks are eyed and the eye is formed by flattening the end and punching. The point and barb also differs from the regulation pattern. The Improved Van Vleck has a double barb and it is set on the outside of the point instead of the inside. The smallest of these hooks is numbered 8 and this one is about the same size as the No. 1 or No. 1-0 of the other hooks. Sizes 7 and 8 are for black bass. The Captiva is a tarpon hook similar to the plain Van Vleck.
