Not the first one I've ever misshapen, and on the peg for sale. I had seen another one that had a short hook point on one side and a long point on the opposite, like the bending mechanism had gotten off center.

 

I have taken a liking to their flipping hooks, but I wouldn't ever buy their trebles. There are hooks that are just as good for less per hook.

Ive seen hooks like this for years. Its designed to be like a trailer hook. One shank longer than the other 2

Yeah that's the new and improved treble hook. The treble hook that comes with it's own "trailer hook."  :eyebrows:

i still can't believe they sell one treble hook for $3.50 :think: 

I can't believe folks pay $3.50 for a hook. Oh, and the give me twice the goods cause you made a mistake is just silliness, how about you pay me twice the price when you bounce a check or your CC is declined...

UPDATE!

 

 

They sent me a new pack of the trebles and also threw in a sticker and a pack of the Worm hooks that I use.  They said their hooks should not look like that and they have quality control measures in place to prevent it from happening.  

 

Trokar worm hooks are the truth.  My hookup ratio has increased significantly since I switched to primarily Trokar.

As has been posted Rapala puts them on most of their cranks, called a sure set. David Fritz design, some ppl love them some don't

What's wrong with it? Looks like it's designed as being the front hook on a crankbait and the large hook is supposed to point down when you rig it.

yeah I have rapalas that come like that out the box.

I am a rapala fan and they do use the extended treble on quite a few of their cranks.  I am indifferent but i did have one break off when i was unhooking a fish so i guess it worked just long enough to get the bass to the boat :)
