Frequently Asked Questions

What is the VMC Faultless 9291 #12 hook suitable for?

This model is suitable for various worm fishing techniques and for attaching other soft natural baits. The #12 size allows the use of relatively small bait and makes for a compact rig.

Why are there two micro-barbs on the shank?

The micro-barbs help keep worms or other soft baits securely on the shank. This reduces the chance of the bait sliding down the bend during casting or while moving in the water.

What does the NI marking mean?

NI stands for nickel-plated finish. This gives the hook its characteristic bright metallic color. After use in saltwater, hooks should be rinsed with fresh water and dried.

Is size #12 suitable for cod fishing?

The Faultless 9291 series is also used for cod fishing, but #12 is one of the smaller sizes in this series. For targeting larger baits and bigger fish, a larger hook and stronger rig should be chosen.

When is the VMC Faultless 9291 NI #12 the right choice?

This hook is a good choice when using worms or other soft baits that tend to slip off a smooth shank. The two micro-barbs help secure the bait, and the #12 size is ideal for a natural presentation of smaller baits.

For very cautious fish and especially fine rigs, an even lighter or smaller hook may be suitable. For bigger baits, stronger currents, or targeting larger fish, choose a larger size from the same series. If barbless hooks are required at your fishing location, select a model specifically marked as barbless.

Recommendations

Choose the leader line thickness according to the target fish and bait used. Too thick a line may restrict the movement of the small #12 hook, while too thin a leader may reduce the reliability of the rig. Tie the hook to the loop with a proper knot, moisten the knot before tightening, and check that the line is not damaged at the attachment point.

When mounting the worm, carefully guide the bait over the micro-barbs on the shank. These help hold the bait in place, but too much force can damage soft bait. Leave the hook point sufficiently exposed to maintain good hooking ability.

Check sharpness after contact with rocky bottoms, shells, or other hard surfaces. After use in saltwater, rinse nickel-plated hooks with fresh water and dry before storage. Replace hooks that are rusty, bent, or dulled.

A hook that securely holds bait for worm fishing

The VMC Faultless 9291 NI #12 combines a sharp Cut Point tip, offset hook shape, and two bait-fixing micro-barbs. The pack of ten hooks is a practical choice for preparing smaller worm and natural bait rigs.
