RIGGA CVR CURVED

The CVR model is the latest evolution of the curved shank hook principle.

The unique shape ensures the hook will set aggressively the instant the bait is taken and once the super sharp long tapered point takes hold, the shape ensures hook holds are amazing, thanks to the alignment between the hook point and the inward facing eye. The shape and alignment of the point with the eye also means these CVRs excel as a 'barbless only' pattern, as the hook holds stay securely in place similar to a beaked point.

The length of the shank was dictated by the shape of the bend and the final position of the eye. Essentially, it is long enough to keep all the important working points open as the hook turns and grips, without being so elongated that the hook acts as a lever. Similarly, practical experience has shown that stronger wire is vital on curved shank hooks to maintain reliability in the most demanding fishing situations, and also in terms of the stiffness of the wire as bending hooks can create problems in terms of movement of the hook inside the fish's mouth. Think of it this way, the strong wire and unique shape locks the hook firmly in place and holds it there.

The resulting CVR pattern has proven REMARKABLE in long term testing. Whether combined with conventional rigs such as Blow Back rigs, or specialist rigs such as German and Ronnie, the CVR design offers real mechanical advantages in terms of initial bite and maintaining the strongest possible hook hold. There is no other hook pattern like the CVR, which is the ultimate expression of curved shank mechanics.

These CVR Rigga hooks feature:

Super sharp, long and tapered straight tip, chemically etched.

CVRs are characterized by a medium-length curved shank, a wide gape, and a non-reverse bend.

A 20° rotated eye ensures optimal hookset performance with any type of terminal tackle and is a recommended 360 rig model.

The matte PTFE coating reduces corrosion, promotes penetration and minimizes glare.

Made in Japan from the finest extra strong, double tempered, forged, high carbon steel wire.
