Mustad - 7698B Sea Mate Hook

Built for true offshore heavyweights, the Mustad 7698B Sea Mate Hook is one of the strongest big-game hooks available. Engineered with 2X extra strong forged construction, this hook is a top choice among Swordfish and Tuna anglers who rely on maximum strength, deep penetration, and dependable holding power during long battles.

The knife-edge point delivers immediate hook penetration, while the tapered brazed ring ensures a clean, tangle-free connection—ideal for rigging large baits or harnessing heavy tackle. With its inward-pointing hook point, the 7698B is designed for consistent corner-of-the-mouth hookups, reducing pulled hooks and improving landing ratios.

Durable, corrosion-resistant Duratin finish makes it perfectly suited for harsh saltwater environments, and the larger sizes excel when rigging big baits for Sharks, Swordfish, giant Tuna, and other powerful pelagic species.
