Thinking Anglers Curve Point Hooks
The Curve Point hook pattern combines a super sharp curved hook point and in-turned eye and is also finished in our super slippery PTFE coating.
The hook pattern wants to bury itself quickly thanks to the angle of pull naturally created by combining the in-turned eye and super-sharp swept hook point.
This is enhanced by the slick PTFE coating and the point’s long tapered profile.
As soon as the fish is pricked the hook is embedding itself more and more securely, ensuring more pick-ups are translated into fish in the net.
The durable swept point is perfectly suited to fishing over rock hard gravel areas where the critical sharpness of the point could be compromised when feeding carp disrupt the area where the rig is laying.
Forged from a strong heavy gauge wire, the Curve Point is the classic pattern for boilie and particle fishing hard on the deck.
The pattern is truly versatile and has proven to be the perfect pattern to use in combination with the phenomenal Noodle rig.

PTFE Coating for optimum penetration.

Thinking Anglers Curve Shank Hooks
TA Curve Shank hooks are ideal for all manner of big fish rig applications.
The pattern is ideal for use with almost any presentation; ranging from the ‘bog standard’ knotless knotted hair and blow back rig, through to KD rigs, Slip-D’s, 360’s and the hugely popular ‘Ronnie’ rig. This is simply an amazingly versatile hook pattern.
Curve Shank hooks have a needle sharp, long tapered, durable point and are manufactured from forged and double tempered super-strong, extra-heavy gauge steel wire that is essential to ensure the reliability in curved shank hook patterns.
This exacting manufacturing process optimizes the strength of the high carbon wire and this means that the hooks offer amazing strength in relation to the wire gauge used in their construction.
The combination of an in-turned eye, curve shank and needle-sharp straight point is naturally an extremely positive hooking design that turns very aggressively.
By coating the pattern in our super-slippery PTFE coating, and the combination of a positive angle of drawer ensures the pattern reacts aggressively and then takes a secure hold as the hook fully penetrates quickly.
These Curve Shank hooks have undergone rigorous and extensive testing across a wide range of demanding big carp scenarios by our team prior to their general release and the results have been epic.

Thinking Anglers Out Turned Eye Hooks
The wickedly sharp and extremely strong Out-Turned Eye hooks are primarily intended for use with stiff monofilaments and fluorocarbon materials popular for pop-up sections on Hinged and Chod style rigs.
Additionally, they have a multitude of uses for bottom bait and D-rig presentations.The 15° angled OE is perfect for these tricky materials as it allows the hook to sit at a naturally aggressive and efficient angle, that doesn’t impact the hook’s gape.
The eye diameter and angle also help to maintain the perfect alignment between the hooklink material and the hook point – that means that the hook is easier to fine-tune with rigs tied with these hooklink materials.
The combination of our slippery PTFE coating, OE, lovely long tapered durable point, and the right length hook shank all comes together to ensure that the initial pricking and penetration of this hook pattern is impeccable, bedding down quickly and securely – and staying there…
These hooks are forged from a super-strong, extra-heavy gauge wire, and were thoroughly tried and tested by us for 2 years under extremely rigorous conditions prior to their public release.

The 15° angled out-turned eye works perfectly with these tricky materials as it allows the hook to sit at a naturally aggressive and efficient angle and doesn’t restrict the hook’s generous gape.
The out-turned eye also helps to maintain the perfect alignment between the hooklink material and the hook point – that means that the hook is easier to fine-tune with rigs tied with these hooklink materials.
The Beaked Chod hook features a supremely sticky, long hook point, that just wants to snare and bury itself quickly, bedding deeply with minimal resistance thanks to the point’s tapered profile, the pattern’s positive angle of draw, and our ‘slippery’ PTFE coating.
