Gamakatsu Bottom Knocker Offset Hooks
Features:
- The Gamakatsu Bottom Knocker offset hooks combines the benefits of fishing with a jig with an EWG worm hook, and a large lead ball head to get down deep.
- The Bottom Knocker’s hook features the sharply angled Z-Bend, which keeps your worm from sliding off the hook–a fish pulling the worm digs the worm into the Z-Bend, holding it fast and keeping your bait in play.
- Rounded weight on the Bottom Knocker, plus offset eye lets your bait lay down, which is a behavior that triggers strikes.
- The Bottom Knocker features a big lead to get your weight down to the bottom with a 1/0 hook so you can fish a bigger worm down at the bottom.
- The Gamakatsu Bottom Knocker comes in several different sizes, in packs of 4 hooks per pack.
| Hook Size | Lead Weight | Hook Type |
|---|---|---|
| 1/0 | Large lead ball head | Offset hook with EWG worm hook |
| 2/0 | Large lead ball head | Offset hook with EWG worm hook |
FAQ
What makes the Z-Bend on the hook special?
The sharply angled Z-Bend keeps the worm from sliding off the hook. When a fish pulls, it digs the worm into the bend, holding the bait securely and keeping it in play.
How does the offset eye help in fishing?
The offset eye allows the bait to lay down naturally, which mimics natural bait behavior and increases the likelihood of triggering strikes.
Is the lead weight adjustable?

Used these hooks for bottom fishing in clear water. The worm stays firmly in place thanks to the Z-Bend. The bait lays down naturally and I got several strikes. Good for deeper water with larger worms.
Jonathan Greene –
Felt more stable than regular jig hooks. The offset eye helps the worm sit flat, which made it easier to catch fish near the bottom. Works well with 1/0 size.
Diana Anderson –
Great for targeting bottom-dwelling species. The large lead keeps the hook down, and the Z-Bend holds the worm securely. Easy to use and effective in both calm and moving water.
