BKK Viper-61

• BKK Viper-61 is a perfect match for SkyGrey lures.
  SkyGrey has recorded results with fish such as 200 kg-class bluefin tuna and 60 kg-class GT.

An ultimate straight-point treble hook designed for targeting large species such as tuna, GT, and yellowtail.

An evolution of BKK’s iconic and award-winning Viper-41, Viper-61 was developed to push the limits of strength, durability, and hooking performance for big game anglers.
Manufactured using BKK’s advanced Hyper Carbon Steel (HCS), this hook incorporates numerous refinements to withstand harsh environments, setting a new benchmark for offshore and heavy-duty lure fishing.

Key Features

• Ultra-strong 6X wire construction
• BKK Hyper Carbon Steel (HCS):
  25% increase in strength and 30% increase in hardness compared to conventional materials
• Aggressive bend and oversized barbs for maximum holding power
• Slim ring design for easy split ring attachment
• Extremely sharp needle point for superior penetration
• Bright tin coating for excellent resistance to saltwater corrosion

The needle point is engineered to be exceptionally sharp, maximizing hooking efficiency.
Combined with the aggressive bend and oversized barbs, the hook remains secure even during long fights, violent head shakes, and high-speed jumps.

Design Details

The hook eye is polished and shaped prior to coating, resulting in a thinner profile that improves split ring attachment through the slim ring design.
This construction maintains strength while reducing overall weight, maximizing penetration, hook-up rate, and holding power.

By shortening the welded section of the treble hook, overall weight is reduced and the hook stabilizes closer to the lure.
This allows the use of larger hook sizes without compromising swimming action, improving point exposure and hook-up efficiency.

Bright tin coating ensures outstanding corrosion resistance, even in the harshest saltwater environments.
