By evolving the legendary stepped Claw profile with an extended 35-degree in-turned shank, Nash has created an anti-eject masterpiece. This hook is designed to react instantly, turning and seating itself securely the moment a carp moves, ensuring you land more fish even under the most demanding conditions.
The unique stepped and angled bend of the unstoppable Claw pattern, now with an extended 35-degree angle in-turned shank for improved anti-eject properties, faster turning, and more secure hook holds. The increased shank length has proven perfect during testing for Slip D, Blowback, and Fluoro D presentations, and also an improved anti-eject Ronnie Claw.
Unique to Pinpoint, all patterns now feature the Power Forge Bend, the result of focusing high carbon steel tempering on the highest stress areas of a hook to produce a micro-flattening of the hook profile which increases spot strength, reduces rotation, and resists distortion for more reliable hook holds under pressure than ever before. Pinpoint continues to provide the ultimate combination of sharpness and strength with designs tailored to the full range of modern presentations and hookbait choices.

The Ultimate Anti-Eject Slip-D: Because this is a barbless hook, maintaining a weighted rotation is key. Tie this as a Slip-D rig and add a small blob of tungsten putty just below the hook eye. The combination of the 35-degree in-turned shank and the counter-weight causes the hook to drop like a stone into the bottom lip, making it virtually impossible for the carp to blow it back out!
Barbless Syndicates & Commercials: Essential for technical anglers who need a hook that provides maximum hold without a barb.
Modern Ronnie / Spinner Rigs: The extended shank and stepped bend provide a more secure clawing action than standard curved hooks, perfect for pop-up presentations.
Technical Blowback Rigs: The long shank allows for a longer travel distance for the rig ring, significantly increasing the anti-eject properties.
Wafter D-Rigs: The aggressive in-turn eye creates a perfect kick, making this an elite choice for presenting balanced baits on clear lake beds.
Q: Does a barbless long shank hook cause more mouth damage?A: No. The Power Forge bend actually reduces hook rotation once it is seated, meaning the hook stays in one place during the fight. Combined with the barbless point, it allows for a very clean entry and a trauma-free removal.
Q: Why is the Power Forge Bend important?A: When playing large fish on a long shank hook, there is often more leverage applied to the bend. The Power Forge process flattens the wire at this stress point, making it incredibly difficult for the hook to open up or distort.
Q: Can I use this for bottom baits?A: Absolutely. While it excels at D-rigs and pop-up presentations, the aggressive turning speed makes it a fantastic choice for simple bottom bait rigs tied with supple or coated braids
