The Gamakatsu SL12S hooks are an excellent saltwater hook for medium and large species. They are tin-plated and super sharp. The wire thickness on the SL12S isn't too thick like some saltwater hooks which makes it easier to get a good hook set, yet they are plenty strong for 20 lb. tippets (in the larger sizes). We've used these for tuna, sailfish, and routinely use the size 2 for a larger-sized steelhead tube fly hook. Each pack contains the following number of hooks: Size 2 and 1/0 = qty 12. Size 2/0 = qty 10. Size 4/0 = qty 7. Size 6/0 = qty 6. Size 8/0 = qty 4.
