DAIICHI HOOKS

Daiichi Seishin, roughly translated means 'great hook maker'.

Daiichi Hooks of Japan were the first hook makers in the world to produce a coloured chemically sharpened hook, thanks largely to the input of Juro OzPro Tackle Australia. The Juro Team observed that local anglers targetting species such as Whiting often used red tubing or beads as an attractant, and approached Daiichi with a request to build that attraction into the hook itself.

Daiichi responded by developing a coloured coating that was not only durable, but also had no adverse effects on the sharpness of the hook point like many of the thicker painted coatings can. After the initial success of these red coated hooks, we also were able to adapt other colours to the range - such as the model 2174 hook, a green version of the 2171 model hook that is very popular amongst anglers fishing weed baits for Blackfish (Luderick).

This innovative process was something that would change the manufacturing of hooks worldwide forever, as every other company soon realised the effectiveness of coloured chemically sharpened hooks and rushed to bring out copies. In spite of all of this added competition, Daiichi still manufacture the finest range of ultra-sharp chemically etched hook points in the World, and with new innovations such as Razor Points and Titanium Plated Circle Hooks, Daiichi Hooks are still World's Finest Quality Hi-Carbon Chemically Sharpened Hooks.
