VMC 7047B Stalking Barbless
The VMC 7047B Stalking Barbless is a single hook from the trout family, designed for delicate rigs and clean presentations. It is the barbless version of the 7047 and is intended for use with baits that are bulkier than the hook size, featuring a round geometry and a solid, very sharp point.
What it is for
This hook is used in trout fishing when a precise bait setup and quick penetration are needed. It works well with moths and butter-worms, soft baits that require a hook profile suited to holding them without compromising their natural presentation. The barbless version makes unhooking faster and fish handling cleaner, a useful feature in selective fishing, controlled waters, and whenever keeping the bait properly balanced during the fishing action matters. The round shape helps mount relatively bulky baits with balance.
