ESP Cryogen Surface Hook Barbed Size 8

ESP Cryogen Surface Hooks are purpose-built for surface fishing, combining exceptional strength, sharpness, and durability to meet the demands of modern carp anglers. This heavily forged pattern is incredibly strong for its gauge, making it ideal for battling hard-fighting fish in open water or near snags. Developed using ESP’s unique twin tempering process—heat and cryogenic treatment—these hooks offer enhanced point durability and long-lasting sharpness, giving you confidence in every hook-up.

The design features a short shank and wide gape for excellent turning and hook-holding efficiency, while the ultra-sharp, fine long points ensure deep and secure penetration. These hooks pair perfectly with ESP Surface Mixers but also work seamlessly with a wide range of floating hookbaits. Due to their reliable shape and strength, they also double as superb zig rig hooks, offering versatility across a range of surface and mid-water presentations.

Available in both micro barbed and barbless versions in sizes 8 and 10, each pack contains 10 hooks—giving you trusted, high-performance terminal tackle straight from the pack.
