To most people the most important thing about a fish hook is its ability to catch fish, and this is of course also the most important thing for Mustad when designing and developing a hook pattern. In order to make a high-quality fish hook for a specific type of fishing, there are many parametres that have to be decided upon: should the the point be straight or bent in -- the throat be deep or shallow -- the shank be long or short -- the eye be straight, bent up or bent down -- the wire be thin or heavy ... such elements decide the particular properties of an individual hook pattern and how suitable it is for a specific type of fishing.

We don’t just pluck a name out of the air and bestow it on a bail arm, a spool or a handle. Each Shimano feature’s name is descriptive, giving the user a feel for the benefits it brings. Dyna-Balance tells you a reel is perfectly balanced, Positive Bail means there’s no risk of mid-cast mishaps, and so on.
